Da Beats Da thing. Paul & Artie don't got THE BEAT. And where are all the scantily clad babes clutching their crotches? You call that entertainment?

I heard Paul eight or nine years ago when he had most of the musicians from Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints with him, AND Ladysmith Black Mombazo. When he invited Artie up, it was a surprise to everyone, as he wasn't listed as one of the performers. I really enjoyed the short set he did with Artie, but it's a different kind of music, without a lot of energy. Shifting gears from Ladysmith Black Mombazo dancing on stage in rhythm, singing, to Artie standing next to the piano with his hands in his pockets took some doing on my part, and I LOVED it. I give Paul a lot of credit that he can go from pensive ans wistful to rocking. Artie is more of a one trick pony... wonderful pony that he is.
