Paul Ponnudorai died the morning of July 7th, 2012, at age 51. I'll bet there's a huge bunch of ace musicians on the other side waiting to jam with him. Paul was undoubtedly an absolute phenomenon - a musician's musician, with an innate musicianship he honed to virtuoso heights. And yet he was always approachable, friendly and generous with his time.
We never really know how precious some lives and their unique gifts are - until they're gone.
Love you, bro.
