Paul Raymond (born Paul Martin Raymond, 16 November 1945, St Albans, Hertfordshire, England) is an English keyboardist/guitarist.
Raymond started his musical career as a keyboardist/vocalist for the band, Plastic Penny, in 1967. He left after the band split up in 1968. He replaced Christine Perfect (later to become Christine McVie) in British blues band Chicken Shack when she left to join Fleetwood Mac. Raymond then found his way into the band Savoy Brown as their keyboardist/guitarist. Savoy Brown brought Raymond minor fame. Paul will not autograph Savoy Brown Material.
He was later recruited by UFO in 1976 to replace their first keyboardist Danny Peyronnel. When Michael Schenker left UFO, Raymond was a helpful hand in songwriting. Raymond has been working with original members Andy Parker, Pete Way, and Phil Mogg along with Schenker in UFO from 1976 to the present day.
