Paul English is Willie Nelson's longtime drummer who started playing with him in Fort Worth in 1955, although he did not become Nelson's regular drummer until 1966. In the years in between he played with Delbert McClinton among others. In the early days, one of his duties was to serve as a strong armed collection agent for overdue payments from club owners for the band. He is the husband of second wife, Janie English, his son Paul English Jr., who is a realtor in Dallas, TX, and also starred in Wishbone, and Evan English who is a senior at Oklahoma University.
