Editorial Reviews:

Cozy Powell, drummer extraordinaire, has recorded with such giants of rock & roll as the Jeff Beck Group, Rainbow and ELP (to name a few). in the late '70s/early '80s, Cozy gathered together some of his "friends" and recorded 3 blistering albums for Polydor. This set compiles, for the 1st time, the digitally remastered best of Cozy's releases, featuring performances by guitarists Jeff Beck and Gary Moore, bassist Jack Bruce, keyboardist David Sancious and many others, all contributing some of the finest music of their careers.

Description:

Polydor's The Very Best of Cozy Powell is culled from his early-'80s AOR and hard rock records. This wasn't the best period of Powell's career, suffering from a singular lack of imagination, but it had its moments, all of which are collected here. Even when distilled to this concise collection, these recordings are a bit thin and monotonous, but this remains the place to become acquainted with these records.
