That's what he said to me a few years ago when I interviewed him over the phone after asking him if he really was the "nicest guy in rock" as has so often been said.
Paul just celebrated his birthday yesterday and is basking in the glory of six Ultimate Classic Rock awards for the Kiss album, "Monster" while the band enjoys the 40th anniversary this month of its founding back in January 1973.
And Kiss is poised to continue their worldwide tour in support of Monster, which was released last October.
He was the lead vocalist, primary lyricist, and a founding member of Lynyrd Skynyrd.
And he would have been 65 years old today, born on January 15, 1948 in Jacksonville, Florida.
