Sorry to hear about both. One of the links I had to Paul's discography opens a 
home page, last updated in 1997:
http://classic-web.archive.org/web/20031207213734/http://www.zilker.net/~pwworth/discog.html

and some of the pages still work, such as this (Acoustics)
http://classic-web.archive.org/web/20030707015445/www.zilker.net/~pwworth/acoustic.html

and this (Victor electrics)
