We lost two Greats!
Today I read where we lost two great singers that were from my home town, Meridian MS. Al Wilson and Paul Davis. I did not know the Wilson’s but I have enjoyed his music.
Paul’s parents lived on the same street as we did and Paul lived with them for a time and though we were not friends we did at times speak to each other as neighbors through the years.
I always loved his songs but wasn’t seeing him enough on the charts and was not sure he would be a continued success. He survived a shooting in Nashville on July 30, 1986 and I’m not sure he ever fully recovered. Here is a link to his MySpace page – www.myspace.com/pauldavis2006
I enjoyed talking to him about his music as a kid and hate to see that he is gone.
