One With Paul DeLay
Paul DeLay has spent his aduli
life on the fast track; as lead singer and
dri\ mg force for one of the west coast' s
most popular blues bands and as a
major player on the Portland party
scene. Now his life has slowed dra

prison term for drug trafficking
KOIN-TV sports anchor and resi

his new start and part two of his life”,
according to Whelan
The interview is part of a special

has taken his place with the band,
Linda Hornbuckle. From her roots in
gospel music, Hornbuckle has pro-
