This essential 90-minute plus DVD documentary, lovingly produced by Trevor Taylor, tells Paul's whole story, from a boy learning the clarinet at school, right up to his many activities today as a multi instrumentalist, and includes interviews with music critics, musicians and Paul himself.

Many music clips are included covering concerts and performances with Danny Thompson's Whatever, Evan Parker, Keith Tippett's big bands, the Atmospheres ensemble, Mujician and working with the contemporary classical ensembles of Brian Irvine and Edd Bennett. The DVD comes up to date with footage from the 08 Visions Festival in New York where Paul in a trio with legends Andrew Cyrille and Henry Grimes blew the house down! Recommended not just for dedicated fans, but jazz, folk and classical musicians, enterprising composers and forward-thinking festival and concert directors of all persuasions.

"Four sessions and nearly three hours of music. Bargain without doubt. Genius pairing without question. Sublime improvising musicianship infused and overflowing with their unique folks chemistry. Miss out on this limited edition boxed set at your listening peril!"

Keith Tippett, Tapestry Orchestra -First Weaving, the complete concert, released for the first time as a 2 CD set via Red Eye Music.

First Weaving is from the 1998 Le Mans Jazz Festival; a gigantic session which became an underground classic despite never being commercially available. Originally commissioned by the BBC it stayed under wraps because the intention was to produce a studio recording for which the funding never materialised.

It has taken nine years for this brilliant performance to be heard on CD, now that it is available on Red Eye Music it needs to be listened to more than ever (Steve Day)

CD Package includes liner notes by Philippe Renaud, Riccardo Bergerone, Nod Knowles, Janinka Diverio and Chris Albury of Mind Your Own Music.
