Terry Williams (drummer)

Terry Williams (born January 11 1948, in Swansea, Glamorgan, South Wales) is a Welsh rock drummer, whose resume includes work for Dire Straits, BB King, and Bob Dylan.

During the 1960s, Williams played in a few bands, including The Smokeless Zone and Dream. After Dream split, he joined Dave Edmunds' Rockpile, and also Welsh rock group Man, which consisted of two former Dream and Smokeless Zone members, Deke Leonard and Martin Ace. When Man split in 1976, Williams joined Dave Edmunds again, as well as working with Deke Leonard (again), and Dire Straits from 1982 until 1989 (a period that included their live album "Alchemy"). Terry now runs a blues club in Swansea.
