Paul Hackman
Paul Wayne Hackman (November 14, 1953 – July 5, 1992) was a Canadian guitarist who performed with the rock band Helix from 1976 until his death in a road accident. Among the hits which contain his playing are the #32 Canadian single "Rock You" and the #20 mainstream Canadian rock single "Deep Cuts the Knife", which he co-wrote with Bob Halligan, Jr..〔(Sleez Roxx profile on Paul Hackman )〕
== Career with Helix ==
A native of the Southwestern Ontario city of St. Thomas, Paul Hackman played in two local bands, Whitehorse and Purple Wedge. He joined Helix in 1976 when original keyboardist Don Simmons handed in his resignation. Hackman saw an ad for a replacement keyboard player in the newspaper and contacted Helix manager William Seip. Hackman informed Seip that he too had been searching for a keyboard player for his own band, and hadn't found one in six months. He convinced Seip to let him audition as a new guitar player, which took place at the Seip farm in Baden, a small Ontario community. Hackman was offered the gig, and according to lead vocalist Brian Vollmer, "our sound became heavier and more aggressive."
Helix released two independent albums on their own H&S Records, entitled ''Breaking Loose'' and ''White Lace & Black Leather'', in 1979 and 1981 respectively. Helix signed with Capitol Records in 1983 and released ''No Rest for the Wicked''. This album featured Canadian hit video "Heavy Metal Love", which Hackman and Vollmer co-wrote. ''Long Way to Heaven'', featuring Hackman's "Deep Cuts The Knife", followed in 1985. In 1986, another Hackman co-write, "It's Too Late" from the movie soundtrack to ''Iron Eagle'', was released. The 1987 album ''Wild in the Streets'' was considered a disappointment by Capitol Records, only managing an unexpectedly low #179 on the ''Billboard'' 200 in the United States,〔(Billboard – Wild in the Streets )〕 although the album did go gold in Canada. By the end of the 1980s, Hackman had toured not only all over Canada, United States and England, but even played in Sweden and Trinidad. In 1990, after a short break, Helix released what would turn out to be its final album with Hackman, ''Back for Another Taste'', for which Hackman and Vollmer co-wrote "Runnin' Wild in the 21st Century".〔
