Welcome to Paul Samsons guestbook! Name: Homepage: Sent: 22.31 - 22/2  Name: Homepage: Sent: 20.44 - 18/2 Name: City London Sent: 14.10 - 16/7 Hi Rob, Been a long time mate. Hope your ok. Great site by the way. Just thought i'd drop you a line as i haven't seen you since that day.As you know Paul was a good mate, a fantastic musician and one of the most generous blokes i had the pleasure to work with. Thanks to Paul giving me that chance with Metallic Blue i have now gone on to record albums and do some really big concerts. I owe him so much and will never forget what he did for me in getting me the job with Angel Witch. I'm not playing with them anymore but i've had another opportunity come along with Shadow Keep. If it wasn't for Paul i wouldn't be where i am today, touring Europe and the States etc and having loads of fun. It's really funny coz every nite i'm about to go on stage,Paul always pops in my mind going 'Go for it boy!!!' HAHAHA And i can't listen to Hendrix anymore without picturing Paul playing it with him!!! Happy memories this end mate, and i still feel his spirit today, God bless ya Paul & Thank You so much. Hope to speak to you soon Rob, Take Care Scott Name: Homepage: City Karlshamn Sent: 14.29 - 14/6 Just want to say THANKS to all the people that came to see the show. The response was awesome!!! I hope Paul was smiling up in his heaven when he saw and heard the reactions to songs like "Riding With The Angels", "Test Of Time", "R U Ready" etc. When Nicky started singing "Tomorrow Or Yesterday" I got severe goosebumps!! I heard the recording made by the Swedish Radio and it sounds really great! Can't say anything about if it will be released on CD, but I will surely work for it, if its possible to do it. I also know at least 3-4 songs were filmed, too. Well, thanks again and I really hope we will be able to do this again! Sent: 12.59 - 4/6 Happy Birthday Bruv Rob Name: Homepage: City Karlshamn, Sweden Sent: 14.43 - 15/3 In addition to my below note I'd just like to say I was totally hooked on Samson since I first heard the "Survivors" album (still have the original vinyl). I actually heard one of the tracks on the Heavy Sound Mail Order answering machine, and directly ordered the album back then! I used to play along to the record, and also to "Head On" when that was out. We even tried to cover "I Wish I Was The Saddle..." in my 80's band Overdrive! Well, hope to see you at Sweden Rock in June! Name: Homepage: City Karlshamn, Sweden Sent: 13.45 - 15/3 Would just like to say it will be a true pleasure and great honour to back Nicky Moore at the Sweden Rock Festival this summer! The gig will also be recorded by the national Swedish Radio! We've just completed the set-list and there will be some nice stuff in there, even from the early days! We (Locomotive Breath) had Nicky guest us at last year's Sweden Rock, where we performed "Don't Get Mad, Get Even", "Tomorrow Or Yesterday", plus "Rock me Baby" and "Tush". This is basically what brought this idea to life! Janne Stark Guitarist/Locomotive Breath Name: City rep. s. Marino Sent: 19.04 - 14/3 Just to say hello. Today i' ve been "watching" Mel Gaynor.

I didnt realy know him through his music but as a friend. Although i did see him with Refugee in his college years. He rang me when he moved to Norwich but I'm sad to say I never got to visit him there. I learned of his death from Rob and went to the funeral. It was a fitting send off. He is always in my thoughts and I miss his crap jokes. Sent: 16.54 - 28/11

Name: City Chicago Sent: 15.38 - 18/4 Paul Samson stayed & played here in Chicago in the Richard Black Project with my friend Jamie. I remember Paul as a quirky guy who was demanding & arrogant at times, yet when a kitten was trapped in a car engine, he & Jamie stood in the driving rain for hours until they rescued it. When Jamie was visiting me the other day, we were looking up something about Samson on the Internet & ran across his obituary - we didn't even know he was sick. For all you Paul Samson fans, friends & family who may be interested, Jamie put a few remembrances of Paul on the Internet, including this little jam they recorded at Jamies house - you can hear it at mp3.com: http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/233/sonic_deaf_monkey.html Jamie also has some tour photos on his website (click on "Rock Star"): http://www.geocities.com/mongorock/ Hope you enjoy them - PJ Moriarty Name: ANXO "MESSIAH!"

I have a loy of information about Paulies early playing carreer. Don't forget that I did play in a 4 member Samson in early 1970. Chris was 2nd guitar. It never did work. I went on to work on cruise ships and played musical wallpaper untill I retired in 1995. Give me a message on the e-mail and give me the info about Paulie.

Thanks for that hour I really appreciated it, all the best Chris Name: City Colchester Sent: 18.22 - 24/12 On behalf of all Paul Samson fans worldwide I just wanted to thank Rob Grain for keeping Paul's memory alive via this great website. Cheers Rob. Name: Wille City Espooo (Finland) Sent: 11.13 - 22/12 I'm now listening Samson's "Live At Reading '81" and I must say this is something more than just a footnote for the NWOBHM... Man, and the "Survivors" is one of the best records I've ever bought! Sudden news of Paul's death was a mean strike for me. However, merry xmas to all and happy New Year. May the Paul hear our records playing aloud.

Name: Homepage: City Biggin Hill Sent: 21.32 - 19/11 I was shocked to hear of pauls death since I knew hil for many years having been his drummer back in the early 70's. We all think we're going to live for ever and paul was the sort of guy who'd you expect to come whistling out of the rubble after a nuclear explosion merely stating "Fuck me that was loud". I'll miss the occasional abusive phonecalls (about once a year!) but that's what being mates is all about. Good luck Paul, what ever bar you're propping up!

The concert in Reading back in 1981 is still in my CD player. Maiden fans from all over the world will miss him. Good luck mate!!!  Name: Paul Gaskin City Scunthorpe Sent: 13.11 - 11/10 I knew Paul only too briefly, but in that short time I found him to be a genuine and honest man.

I'll never forget how impressed he was that someone so young could love Hendrix, he sent me so many tapes of unreleased Hendrix songs. I also own a copy of the withdrawn Hammerhead single on EMI, which he signed for me, so at the time it was the only signed copy of that single in the world because he told me that he didn't even have a copy himself! Paul: thanks for the songs, the tapes, the conversations and the fantastic version of "Little Wing" that you played at The Railway in Ipswich. You'll be missed. James.

Name: City Chicago,IL-US Sent: 22.37 - 11/8 It is very sad to read about Paul's passing. Paul made our lifes much more exciting with his great music. I'm one of the people who grew up with Paul through his music, and different incarnations of Samson. I wil always remember Paul as a great artist. Name: City Riverside,CA, USA Sent: 22.26 - 11/8 My condolences to Paul Samson's family. I still remember when I picked up Before The Storm at a local music shop. I'm not one of those who got into Samson because of Bruce Dickinson, but because I read many great things about his albums through the music papers. I still listen to that album, as well as the others at least once a week. I know these were not "super Ultra Top 20" albums, but they should have been. Even though Paul is no longer with us, his music will always be. Here's an idea: Maybe in Paul's honor, some of the great NWOBHM bands can get together and put on a benefit gig to raise money for cancer research. Maybe bands like Tank, Praying Mantis, and even Iron Maiden can get together for a one time charity gig. Also, the music is still alive, and there is still a chance for new listeners to keep it alive. RIP Paul, See you in the next world.

It's hard to describe how painful it is to lose a man that has given me *so* much, and not have given anything in return. Music is so much more than a product, it changes your life....it can almost be like true love. And Paul's music was something I really, really loved. I know I will always love and listen to his music. His spirit will go on there, no doubt about that. It's strange, because "Tomorrow or Yesterday" sent some extra chills down my spine this year, kind of like I knew this would come.... Rest in Peace, Paul. Thank you for everything you have given me!
