Paul Anthony Cook (aka Paul Cooke) (born December 18, 1961) is an English drummer, percussionist and composer best known for his work on the album Diamond Life by the group he co-founded, Sade.
Cook formed Sade in 1982 with fellow Pride band members, Sade Adu, Stuart Matthewman and Paul Spencer Denman. His time with the band ended in 1984, with Cook stating that he was fired from the band for voicing objections to the singer's signing of a solo contract, which he felt violated his rights to be recognised as the author and director of the music he helped create in 1982 & 3 with the bands Pride and Sade.[1]
