Paul Rishell was born in 1950 in Brooklyn, NY. His early musical experience was as a drummer playing rock 'n' roll and surf music in Connecticut in the early 1960's. In 1963 a friend introduced him to the country blues recordings of Son House and Robert Johnson, Charlie Patton and Blind Lemon Jefferson. Thus began Paul's lifetime devotion to this uniquely American form of music. By 1970 he was proficient on both acoustic and electric guitar and worked as a sideman and studio player in Boston.
