Various Artists - Les Paul & Friends, Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York City, 8-18-1988

Les Paul never liked rock and roll all that much, but he is one of the key people who made rock and roll what it is nonetheless. I'll explain more about his massive influence on music further down below. But first, this was a tribute concert to honor Paul when he was still in good enough health to perform. He was 73 years old at the time of this concert, but he would go on to live another 21 years before dying in 2009. A lot of musical stars showed up to honor him and perform music with him: Eddie Van Halen, B. B. King, Carly Simon, Steve Miller, Rita Coolidge, David Gilmour, Stanley Jordan, and the Stray Cats.

I think Les Paul isn't as well known as he should be today, because he made his considerable mark on music before the rock and roll era ever began. Here's the intro to his Wikipedia entry: 

"Les Paul was an American jazz, country, and blues guitarist, songwriter, luthier, and inventor. He was one of the pioneers of the solid-body electric guitar... and served as inspiration for the Gibson Les Paul. While he is mainly known for jazz and popular music, he had an early career in country music. In the 1950s, he and his wife, singer and guitarist Mary Ford, made numerous recordings, selling millions of copies. Paul is credited with many recording innovations. His early experiments with overdubbing, delay effects such as tape delay, phasing, and multitrack recording were among the first to attract widespread attention. His licks, trills, chording sequences, fretting techniques, and timing set him apart from his contemporaries and inspired many guitarists of the present day. Among his many honors, Paul is one of a handful of artists with a permanent exhibit in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. [He] is the only inductee in both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the National Inventors Hall of Fame."

In this concert, Paul played lead guitar on some instrumentals by himself. He also served as the emcee, introducing the guest stars. He then played guitar for some of the guest stars as well.

This is that was broadcast on the Cinemax TV channel. Maybe this is all of it, or maybe there was more, I don't know. You can find the video of this on YouTube. However, this has never been officially released in any audio format. 

This album is exactly one hour long.

I assume the cover photo was taken either before or after the concert. From left to right, top row: B.B. King, Waylon Jennings, and Eddie Van Halen. In the middle is Les Paul. Left to right, bottom row: Stanley Jordan and Steve Miller.

Oh, by the way, I have some very good choices for the cover art. In addition to the one I chose, I've included two more in the download zip. One shows Les Paul with Eddie Van Halen, and the other shows most of the big name stars playing together for the finale.
