Jim and Paul began their performing careers at various San Diego area coffee-houses in 1967. At 16 years of age, they found these smoke-filled rooms to be havens of folk music. They were heavily influenced by the traveling folk artists that frequented such establishments as The Candy Company, The Heritage, The Bifrost Bridge and The Back Door.  Performing in these coffee-houses, at local folk festivals or in concert, such artists as Arlo Guthrie, Taj Mahal, Donovan, Big Momma Thornton, Sonny Terry & Brownie McGhee and The Youngbloods had a dramatic impact on them in those early years.

Jim and Paul went on to perform with another friend, Big Jim Petty, as a trio (Everyman).

A single reel of 1/4 inch tape exits of a live concert in Yuma, Arizona from those days. Perhaps it will one day make its way to CD!

Since those days they have gone their seperate ways to succesful music careers.

When the opportunity arises, they perform together in rare appearances.
