 | I stopped buying Rolling Stone magazine about 10 years ago,so it´s no Surprise I missed this little piece that Paul wrote for the magazine in 2004,about the Everly Brothers. It is essentially what you would expect,except when Paul mentions that before the first concert on the 2003 S&G tour,The Everly´s had not played/sung or even seen each other for nearly 3 years,until meeting in the parking lot of the venue for the first concert. No rehearsal even! Incredible. Here´s the link-- http://rollingstone.com/artists/theeverlybrothers/

| Hi Ans,I like the way Paul writes very much. Apart from this article,and the touching one about George Harrison(also in Rolling Stone magazine I believe),is there any other examples of his writing you could recommend? |

| This could become a good new Topic :)
I agree with you Ian, Paul writes very interesting and personal.
I will search for more articles, the latest that I remember is the article Paul wrote at the NY Times for the Yankee Stadium.

| Thanks Ans,that was excellent! Paul uses his songwriters eye for detail in this medium as well. Other musicians have tried their hand at writing,mostly biographies,but I believe Paul has a real talent for it. More please Paul...? |

| Oh Ans. You beat me to it. I was going to recommend that piece. The Yankee Stadium article really is fantastic. I wish he would write more like this. I could see him writing some short stories :)

 | Yes Paul really has an amazing talent for prose writing too. The Yankee Stadium article is brilliant, as is his piece on George Harrison, that´s another favorite of mine. |

 | I agree the piece on meeting up with George Harrison between his Oct 2000 concerts was great.
Perhaps the best is his article on the Gershwins that appeared in the NY Times |
