Ritchie Blackmore once said, "You can't get any better than Cozy, you know. He's always up there on stage going crazy, he always pushes me on when I look round. He always gives me that incentive to play because Cozy won't let anybody take it easy." He wasn't wrong.
Cozy Powell was a talented, reliable and versatile drummer. A drummer of such calibre that he played with Jeff Beck, Rainbow, Michael Schenker, Whitesnake, Emerson and Lake, Black Sabbath and Brian May as well as being a hugely in-demand session player.
Before all of that, Powell initially came to prominence with three Mickie Most-produced top twenty singles under his own name. An extraordinary feat for an instrumentalist, and a drummer at that.
With new photos (many of which have never been published before), tour dates, an expansive discography, a deep dive into Cozy's cars and racing career, as well as many other new and exciting additions, this second edition of The Cozy Powell Story builds upon the original that was published four-and-a-half years ago.
