Lots of good stuff in their catalog. Most of their biggest hits had more than one guitar (like The Boxer, with Fred Carter).
Sometimes it's hard to decide who is playing which part, but the Boxer is a bad example because the guitars are so different you can tell which part is which, even when they're intertwining.
Yes, Paul could play!
