As a recording engineer, I can tell you that a lot of what you are hearing is Marshall power tube section....

Now Robert, mom's Les Paul looks giant on you compared to how the LP looks on Mr West.
By the way, I found your Tone in Leslie's fingers and amps.
Not to digress off topic, but I sure love how Leslie Looks back and locks in with the drummer during the opening song etc.

Good observation. It's a different tonal signature. I love it....and at times, I want to hear more of a Gary Moore/Rhoads punch. There really isn't a right or wrong answer I guess, and the answer is, after all, rooted in personal opinion...
Leslie sounds good here...

I like my Les Paul's just fine they all sound great. When our band play's out I use a Parker Fly Deluxe 1956 Fender Stratocaster 1962 Fender Esquire 2001 Gibson Custom Shop RO 1960 RI
1/1965 SG Standard. The cool thing I can play vintage Fenders out and people don't think they are original's. I don't play my original Gibson's out in public they can tell by the sound of them.
20 years ago Troy called bring your 1958 Gibson flying Vee and your 1968 1959 SL-100 Marshall to Jam night I killed every Guitarist that night.
1971 I saw ZZ Top Billy played a 1959 LPS and a Flying Vee 100 watt Marshall sounded killer no effects.

Yup, I was gonna say Billy G has no trouble getting around or getting sound out of his Pearly now does he?
Also I may kill Robert dead when I mention for him to also notice Leslie is rocking a P90 equipped LP Jr. Tone Tone Tone.

P90 has great tone! I am not a fan of the noise though....

Yup, the noise kills brother Robert.

Blame Mom for making me search for a quiet signal. Remember, back when we were recording on tape, you couldn't lock-on to a noise signature and delete it post production...
Now, I have to say, Felder's rhythm and lead tone here, is what I consider the very best, IMHO. Felder's solo begins at 2:07

That's it right there. Best pure Les Paul tone ever recorded. No other recorded LP tone even comes close IMO.
Some of these other examples are great, but the LW and DF tones are heavy on the fuzz. The Reverend has Pearly plugged straight in and there is no denying it.

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY Blackie ?
What I'm trying to say Blues Session 5 is that Les Paul guitars are good to monkey around on.

I have a black Jackson King V guitar that I found awkward at first to play but the key to holding a Flying V while sitting down is resting it between your legs.
