ABOUT

At Paulthomasmusic you can hear cds/songs of guitar work with videos. I play a lot of slide guitar too. Playing my whole life, can't stop. Recorded a lot of stuff, my own as well as a little studio work on others' projects.

My ideal band would be something on the line of original Fleetwood Mac (Peter Green / Kiln House days) and/or early ZZTop / Clapton / Jeff Beck, with a good dash of Pink Floyd style stuff thrown in. Also ok for Celtic/acoustic/bluegrass. An electrified bluegrass set would be dynamite (see Influences).

In spite of being one of the "wise" I want to play with guys that still have some energy and can get up some speed. Ring or write and let's talk.

Influences

All the blues greats, and people like Jerry Reed (for fingerstyle) and Tony Rice, all the big blues rock guys, and eerie stuff like Pink Floyd etc. I also have a strong Celtic/bluegrass side and am probably a 7 out of 10 mandolin player. Love playing that stuff, plugged or unplugged.
