Now that I know that Paul did not play the pic solo on Bill Bixby's
"The Magician," maybe someone can give me a little background on this
guy. Anyone out there that knew him personally/professionally or
possibly shared some studio gigs with him?? I'm been told he was a
great player.
As always, thanks!!!
Hey Everybody, I know these posts were posted quite a while ago, but I just came across them and wanted to offer something. Paul Hubinon was an amazing trumpeter. Know one could read and interpret music like him, all but perhaps Chuck Findley, who was
also our neighbor and close friend. My name is Chuck Brown and I am Paul Hubinon's step-son. I lived with Paul on his ranch in Sun Valley California from 1972 until his death; although he had moved before drinking himself to death. I accompanied him to
hundreds of sessions during that time. I honestly don't know a lot about his formative years as a musician. The 70s were his time and he played on so many hit albums it's hard to name them. If you have any questions about that time, who he played with,
who he liked, how he felt about what he was doing, I'm happy to discuss. It was nice running across these comments. It really amazes me that more people don't know about Paul. I'm going through my old photo's. I'll try to post one, as I've only come
across one online and he was in the military band.
Cheers,
Chuck Brown
