“Known for his extraordinary gifts as a songwriter as well as his idiosyncratic charms as a performer, …Paul’s renditions boast an emotional honesty often absent from the now-familiar AM radio classics—more stylist than singer, he invests the material with genuine tears-of-a-clown pathos.” Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
