Thought I'd revive this post from Don to see if anyone has any information on Paul.

He recorded two albums for Decca "Contemporary Folk" 1965 and "Traditionally at the Troubadour" 1966. Davy Graham plays on the first and Trevor Lucas on the second,(called Trevor Vietch on Dons USA Fontana copy).

1967 sees him do 2 tracks on "Alex Cambell and his Friends" Saga.
1968 single "You ain't going nowhere" with Linda Peters/(Thompson).

Running a forum search Don has been looking on for more details of what happened after 1968 on a few threads.

Lanfranc was a friend of his in the sixties as was Alex,(they went to France together), Martin Carthy taught him to play guitar, and he shared a flat with Paul Simon.

He has been reported as living on the streets in the 90s, and of dying in the 80s.

What happened after 1968?

It seems that Paul was well known in the mid-60s but by 1968 had gone from the folk scene. Like Don I encountered his records by chance, and fell under their spell. Like Alex he can make you want to listen to songs you thought you could not take another version of.

Jim McLean must have some details, and Lanfranc as well.

Your memories please.
