The one I'd love to see is the one they never made.  When they showed "Les Paul - Chasing Sound" ( http://www.lespaulfilm.com/ ) on PBS last year (or maybe it was 2008) you got a brief taste of all of the stuff sitting in Les' basement. as he ambles through it, briefly pointing to things and mentioning them.  I would have loved to been able to buy a double-DVD set of Les working his way through that basement in more leisurely and detailed fashion, because it is an absolute museum of the history of music technology in the second half of the 20th century.  Obviously Les, rest his soul, is not gonna be able to do it, but I wonder if the producers of the documentary have more footage of that amazing basement that they could string together for gearheads who don't need to be educated on Les' accomplishments or stature.

Wow, great stuff folks. I thought I might get a little guff cause this is more of a Lounge topic, but great responses.

I find music DVD a must while working on pedals (you can pay attention or not depends what you are doing but there is always great audio) not like a movie that you miss what is going on.

Some of these have been hard to find in hard copies locally but at least i have a list of what to pay attention to or what to acquire from the internet when funds are better (Damm Shippin)

Thanks, hope others are enjoying this as much as i am.
