I got to see Paul at Lake Tahoe in 2003 with Pinetop Perkins. What a thrill. A lady asked Pine to sign one of his discs and asked if he was ever going to retire. He chuckled to himself and then said, " Honey, I made my living being retired!". Too kool. Now they're both gone and I hold that show near and dear to my heart. Thanks for a great memory, fellows !!!
I loved Paul DeLay! I have never heard anyone who could play and sing the blues like he did! We used to see him at a place called JazzBones in WA...also at one of the local casinos. I miss him :-(
Haha, love it! I remember back in the White Eagle Days like before 1980, hearing Paul, "...uh,...Yeah! HERE'S a Muddy Waters tune that I wrote" and then wink and look at you sideways with a grin. And then proceed to wail like it WAS his. The blues WERE ALL his. And Paul deLay was the blues.
One of the all time great white blues singer/sonwriter//frontman/harp players. No question, outside the NW U.S., the most underappreciated bluesman of the late 20th and early 21st century. Somebody, be a witness. Get much more of his material on YT.
Original.....unique........excellent.

Paul has to be up there with the top two or three blues harp players to have ever lived and a voice like the best barbeque!!!!
