ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons, Slash, Richie Sambora and the Ventures to perform for legendary honoree Les Paul
The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, Case Western Reserve University and Gibson Guitar will honor the extraordinary Les Paul with a tribute concert that befits a musical legend. The tribute concert lineup includes Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees: James Burton, Billy Gibbons and the Ventures along with Jennifer Batten, Dennis Coffey, Lenny Kaye, Steve Lukather, Alannah Myles, Richie Sambora and Slash.
The 13th annual American Music Masters tribute concert will take place on Saturday, November 15, at 8 p.m. at Playhouse Square's State Theater. Tickets are $30, $40 and $50 and can be purchased at playhousesquare.org and at the PlayhouseSquare box office (216) 241-6000.
This once-in-a-lifetime concert features an all-star lineup of artists who will perform as a tribute to the legendary inventor and musician known as Les Paul. This event also tells the story of Paul's life and legacy through video, photographs and special tributes. Please visit www.rockhall.com for updated information about the concert, the weeklong series of events and for more information about Les Paul.
As a special addition to the American Music Masters series, guests will have the opportunity to use the latest in online technology and post or share their own tributes and stories. The website was created by Cuyahoga County Public Library. The site can be accessed by visiting www.rockhall.com and will be live on October 20. This allows people near and far to post comments, video or photograph accolades and to share their anecdotes about Paul’s impact on their own lives. The testimonials will be permanently housed in the Rock Hall's Library and Archives scheduled to open to the public in 2010.
The complete weeklong series of events will be announced shortly.
About the American Music Masters® series
The American Music Masters® series, a co-production of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum and the Baker-Nord Center for the Humanities at Case Western Reserve University, celebrates the lives and careers of artists who changed the shape and sound of American culture. Each year, the series explores the legacy of one of those pioneering figures in a range of events that includes Museum exhibits, lectures, films, a major conference and a tribute concert benefiting the Rock Hall’s Education Department. Drawing together experts, artists, fans and friends, these events aim to provide new perspectives on some of the most beloved and influential musicians of the past century.
The American Music Masters® series began in 1996 when the museum paid tribute to Woody Guthrie with a 10-day celebration of his life and legacy. Other American Music Masters® series honorees have included: the father of country music, Jimmie Rodgers in 1997; blues legend, Robert Johnson in 1998; rhythm and blues pioneer, Louis Jordan in 1999; the legendary Muddy Waters in 2000; the "Empress" Bessie Smith in 2001; Hank Williams, the first country western superstar in 2002; Buddy Holly in 2003; folk-blues artist Lead Belly in 2004; Sam Cooke in 2005; Roy Orbison in 2006; and Jerry Lee Lewis in 2007. Artists who have performed at American Music Masters® include Solomon Burke, Elvis Costello, Aretha Franklin, Chrissie Hynde, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant.
