“Paul auditioned for Little Feat as a bassist when it (band) was first being put together – in his words, as a bassist I make an excellent guitarist – and three years later joined the band in his proper role on guitar. Forty-seven years later, he was forced to miss the current tour, which will end tomorrow, due to side effects from his ongoing treatment for liver disease”.
