Happy birthday, Noel Paul! Thanks for a lifetime of beautiful music. Over 55 years ago, I bought a PP&M book with tablature and taught myself fingerpicking style. It changed my musical life and gave me a lifetime of musical self-expression. PP&M's performance at the 1963 March on Washington taught me the power of music for social justice. And now, your sharing of spirituality is a source of reflection and inspiration for me. You are a significant part of my life-long learning adventure!
Listened to your session with Diana Butler Bass during Advent so learned of your efforts to be with Peter Yarrow as he entered hospice . May angels surround him and saints welcome him in peace And prayers for you at this tender time.
Happy Birthday Noel! I have loved your music for more than half a century. My family enjoyed seeing PP&M 8 times at Wolf Trap. Each time my heart was filled! Now I’m thrilled that you are working on a project with my friend and neighbor, Jeanne. Thank you for all the ways you have blessed and enriched my life. With love, Evalin
Happy birthday, Noel Paul. Thank you for a wonderful life of music starting when I was in high school, singing my freshman year with PPM at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN to being part of our wedding ceremony in the Wedding Song. It's been a joy to meet you again here in your Substack and review all the many ways you've continued to make the world a better place. Looking forward to reading your book. Blessings on this special day!
Happy birthday, Noel! Wow - 87 - you've got me beat by just over a decade. You have created a great model for aging with grace and style. Appreciation for your music, of course, but also for the way you spirit (and God's Spirit) touch people in so many ways. You may Love come alive.
Happy birthday, Noel, and thank you so much for your music. I've been a fan for years. I saw you most recently near D.C. when you played a few songs at the Tom Paxton show; you are still at the top of your game! I have thoroughly enjoyed your Christmas album, especially "Something Special." I love that song! I will continue to pray for you and for Peter at this difficult time.

You, Patti Smith, and I, all celebrate another spin around the universe today. Can’t think of better company to share a birthday with. Blessings.
