I'm old enough to remember when Les Paul broke into the popular music scene (1949?) with "World is Waiting for the Sunshine" with his wife Mary Ford. The guy virtually invented the electric guitar, as well as multiple recording.

If you want to hear some real virtuosos on the guitar, try to find a vinyl called "Lester and Chester", Les Paul and Chet Atkins. Those guys are the standard by which all other guitarists are measured...

I'm old enough to have seen Les Paul on the old Arthur Godfrey show.
Over dubbing was so new then that Les had to explain how he and Mary recorded those early recodings like "How High the Moon". Most people were amazed that over dubbing was even possible (with the technologey of the day) except for Les of course
