This is a very weak Wikipedia entry. I think he's a pretty tight and creative bass player for the time, especially fusing punk, ska, reggae, and yes, even dub styles into his technique. I play with a pick too, because I like it. Hasn't anybody ever said anything good about this guy?
This page doesn't seem to be citing a lot of its sources, and I feel it lacks the integrity of the other articles, such as Joe Strummer, London Calling, Guns of Brixton, or Combat Rock.
I hope that more Clash fans step up and improve the quality of this entry. I argue that the tightness and combined energy of these four musicians is uniquely contributed to by all (especially Topper Headon, imho)

This page needs to be updated. Paul Simonon is now a member of a new band, The Good The Bad And The Queen (sometime late 2006) and this article stops in the mid nineties. Also, as the other guy said above, this really doesn't do justice Simonen's contribution to the band.

[edit] Left wife?
I think this really needs some confirmation. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.34.14.101 (talk) 01:08, 25 January 2007 (UTC).
It looks as if it's been a slow attrition by people doing minor edits (such as the one where Dale Winton became his wife and his godparents are Tony Blair and Oprah) and no-one really being enough in the know to sort them out. Almost no sourcing, too. --Crgn 16:53, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Paul's Personal life
Can somebody check that info on his wife? And I'm pretty sure his son's godfather is not that horrible Justin timberlake. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yarbles75 (talk • contribs) 08:51, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
