Paul did some fantastic harp work right from his time with his mentor Little Walter through to his tragic and untimely death in 87. His style of playing ,his space and intonation have been covered many times by many contributors but every now and then a true artist in the height of their black dog days puts out a track that comes straight from the soul and says more about the person than any eulogy could. Such a track is BREADLINE from Put It Your Ear LP. Its in A flat major and changes to A major towards the end. When you play like this you have made it.
