“Think you’re brilliant. Always have” –

“Expressive, fluent, varied and thoughtful – this is nice stuff!”

01/01/2002 Derek Nash

“Very few guitarists can hold the attention for a whole set when playing solo, yet Paul can match Martin Taylor for that knack of “plate spinning”, keeping bass line, chords, melody and improvisation all in mid-air without ever dropping anything. A delight to listen to with great choice of unusual material and an even greater pleasure to play with”
