Paul Cook was born July 20, 1956, London, England. He is best known as drummer of the Sex Pistols.

After the demise of the Pistols, Cook and Steve Jones initially worked on the soundtrack to the McLaren's film, The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle. Becoming disillusioned with Malcolm McLaren's antics, the pair started a new band, The Professionals, with Andy Allen.

Cook then went on to appear with the group "The Chiefs of Relief" after a period out of the music industry, played with Edwyn Collins in the 1990s and reunited with the Pistols in 1996 for the "Filthy Lucre" world tour.

Paul Cook is currently playing in the band Man-Raze.


Paul Cook is also the name of the drummer of Sade and a horse jockey who rode the legendary Red Rum to his first Grand National victory.
