Jan Akkerman played on the following albums with Cozy. Forcefield II, Forcefield III, and Minute by Minute. Please visit Jan's official web site www.janakkerman.com for current news on his career.

Always remembered the session we did for Forcefield, Cozy just sat there and said something like: "He didn't loose it, it's still there" when I was doing some lead stuff. I didn't quite understand cause I hadn't been to the British Isles for a decade and this was the 1st thing I did in a long time. What I recall the best is that they played me a track which featured Cozy's drum in a marching parade sort of groove and I realized what a great drum tradition the Britts had or i.o.w. It was great to play on it, made me feel proud of myself. Sounds strange but that was the effect it had on me.

Then a couple of years later I heard "the News"

What can I say? I hope we'll hear these great drumsounds coming from the horizon once again, in time.

Regards
