This song was recorded and produced by myself and Sharron Cawthorne from East Yorkshire. The song was recorded at the Sonic Moles Studio in Scarborough, Yorkshire, UK. The song was written by myself, Sharron and Darren Smith also from East Yorkshire. I played the drums on the song. I love the folk/rock aspects of this song and the dynamics involved in the arrangement that I created with Sharron.

I would love to have my queen think of me when she hears her....the queen .... beautiful soul
Beautiful music. Let the animosity go Paul. Cherish the Legacy
Beautiful safe
I was lucky to do Monitor Mix for the Band for several Canadian dates it was a pleasure to work them they were so efn tight and on the money. Definetly one of the Highs of my life, everyone was so Cool and friendly and polite had no idea of the tension, no one on the Tour caught any of the conflict. So sad to hear this, it was Magical on Stage every night. Thanks for the memories Paul, the Pleasure was all mine mate.

It must have been so exciting working with Sade !
Great work<3
The meaning of this song is so sad... The saxophone part is great! 🎷

Great
I love this so much, I wish it were remastered!
Song by Jody Mckenna?
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Fantastic content... from a true musical legend. Thanks from a budding drummer !!! You deserve a lot more recognition, and i agree many drummers a very soul-less in general, no soul at all. For that, James Gadson happens to be me fave, btw.
Thanks a lot and I will take the legend bit :) If you need anything just hit me up on YT to discuss your drumming. I would concur JG does a great job with the feel aspects of drumming and a good man! Cheers PC

It sounds like you were dumped on by the rest of the band but as an outsider I would guess they wouldnt have done that if you were better than the next guy. The Beatles famously did the same with Pete Best when they found his level of skill to be just enough below par that they decided to let him go. I cant imagine how he must have felt as the years went by and the band went on to achieve world wide success but he somehow managed to acclimatise to life without the Beatles. Your inability to let go even after 40 years must eat away at you and it cant be healthy for you. I feel for you mate but get on with your life and enjoy what's left of it. If your legal case were strong enough you would have been paid off years ago so it's unlikely to come to fruition anytime soon. Best of luck for the future.
There's a bit around the 11 minute mark that makes it clear that Paul wasn't the right man for the job. He resisted the electronic involvement in the music instead of working along side it. When working in a band, you need to have an open mind and be flexible. The producer obviously knew what he was doing as the end result was a massive success. Clem Burke went through hell to get the Heart of Glass drum track right as he wrestled with the CR78 but finally got through it and, as a result, kept his job. Stephen Morris and Roger Taylor embraced drum machines instead of resisting them and contributed to some of the most iconic tracks in pop history. It was the 80s and sadly for drummers, something extra was required. That said, Sade and the other members could have handled the whole situation better and been more transparent to Paul.
@@timharrison2076 We only have his word to say they weren't. I guess if any lawyer thought there was some mileage in getting this to court it would have been taken on as a no win-no fee case, as the end result, if he were to win, would potentially be a huge sum. The whole thing took place over 40 years ago and must be mentally draining for both Paul and his family. I think letting go would be the best option but he doesn't look like he will do that. On one hand I admire his tenacity but on the other I fear he is stuck in 1984 and won't let go.
Thats absolute bullshit Pete Best was a far better drummer than Ringo, its a know fact Ring is a shit drummer and Bernard Purdie did a lot of the Beatles drums for him. If you listen to my podcast you might get a better insight and stop talking shite given you know shite in the first place as you wasnt there and basing all your facts on supposition? Part 3 out now at Apple podcasts podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/just-a-drummer-part-1/id1766525262?i=1000668351340
I guess you also don't know that Paul Denman didnt know any of the notes on his bass guitar when he recorded the first Sade album and kept his job. And still most probably doesnt know them now as he was self taught. You didnt know that as you didnt know him as I did and you wasnt there lol, you are an idiot period!
@@PaulAnthonyCooke1 You sound like one angry man. I tried hard not to be rude to you but it is you that is talking shite mate. I actually did know Paul Denman,Alan Beedle and Alans cousin Martin who preceded you in The Posers very well and I know for a fact that Paul learnt double bass and bass guitar from an early age so I can only assume it is sour grapes that is making you say he didnt know his instrument. After all, you stated yourself he was a mate who stuck by you and even came to your wedding and you reciprocated by taking him to court! I cant see how you dont get that you were sacked from a job for incompetence over 40 years ago and you cant get past it. I doubt you were present when The Beatles were developing but you seem to know all the answers about Pete Best. Isn't that supposition? If you were as good as you seem to think you are how come you havent been snapped up by fellow admiring musicians at some point over the last forty years or so? PS I still have the tape from Hornsea Floral Hall and can confirm that Paul Denman's singing was as bad as your drumming.

Why can't you call Stuart Matthewman and see if you can rejoin the band? According to wikipedia, Sade has no drummer right now.
Really there's a job opening :)
@@PaulAnthonyCooke1 What's it hurt to call? It might be good for the band.

great great great great
You will notice that the band Sade @SadeOfficial didnt want me connected to Smooth Operator and replaced me in the video of the song and also didnt invite me to play the drums at the BBC TOTP's show. They did this by getting Dave Early (session drums) to overdub my original drums
As a poor working class bloke, I really appeciate people pledging their hard earned money to assist me in my battle against Sade and her record company to get compensated for my work for my band in 1983. CrowdJustice NME Sony Someone pledged £10 What an amazing story! Good luck with the case, you deserve it. Chris pledged £50 Good luck! Someone pledged £1,000 Good luck Paul you deserve the Recognition Someone pledged £25 All that hard work and nothing from it. Hope this helps and you finally get the recognition of what you worked so hard for.

My jazzy drums for the first Sade version of Cherry Pie, changed by the producers as none of his session players could copy it lol, bunch of losers 🙂
Cleary the Sade drummer Paul Anthony Cooke is timing and beat perfect on this live Sade recording from Vienna 1983.
It is difficult to provide specific odds on being in a famous band in 1983 as it depends on various factors such as talent, dedication, opportunities, and luck. However, during that time, the chances of becoming a famous musician were generally quite competitive due to the ever-growing music industry. It typically required a combination of exceptional talent, hard work, marketing, networking, and being in the right place at the right time to achieve fame. Only a small percentage of aspiring musicians from that era became part of well-known bands. The chance of me being able to be in Sade in 1983 was 1 in 4,691,884,235... that is minus the other 3 members of the band

This gent appears to be the drummer from the band "Sade"
You have these memories of wild times when all were young. But it’s still not wide-audience appealing like Sade and just a few guys doing music in London‘s pubs then
The band’s literally her name. Paul, Stuart (and Andrew) knew that Sade is a Gem lyrically and vocally, so they would go along 35 years and counting with you being axed for which reason there ever were. Concerning the credits.. The song’s first drafts were rough man (i.e. Cherry pie) .. Sade mellowed them into magic. The credits are due, though
lyrics plz
google cherry pie sade
Terrible sound quality!!
....I actually kind of like this version of cherry pie 😆...
Thats the original and the jazzy drums I created in the first Sade group. The producers changed it as nobody else could copy it
