THE PROPERTY OF WATER was created with electro music pioneer Laurie Spiegel’s Music Mouse, an intelligent music program that because of its blend with acoustic instruments and nature.  

A VIEW FROM THE PLAIN uses Paul’s unique drop thumb guitar style.  His specialized finger style was birthed of a tragic accident years ago that resulted in the loss of three fingers on Paul’s fretting hand. “I had to completely re-approach my playing. A radio program who had placed my album VARIOUS WAVES in the TOP 5 of the year asked about my ‘unique way’ of phrasing! Limitation sometimes has a way of pushing one beyond barriers.”
