LES PAUL & MARY FORD's impact and influence was immeasurable, not merely as singers and musicians but for their recording, mixing and studio practices, notably overdubbing, tape delay, phasing and multi-tracking. Les was a full-on genius/visionary, totally re-imagining the design and acoustics of the electric guitar. Mary was an awesome singer, possessed of a mellifluous, extraordinarily versatile voice, which Les was able to multi-track to perfection. During the early 1950s they became the first "modern" Pop stars, their cutting-edge techniques yielding a run of enormous hits, which crossed the musical genres. 'How High The Moon' topped the U. S. charts for 9-weeks, while 'Vaya Con Dios' spent 11-weeks at No. 1. This compilation presents all their U. S. Top 20 records between 1945 and 1955, including a couple backing other big names before they made it themselves, and a bonus track of a 45 which only made it to #23.
