Roger Frederick Cook (born 19 August 1940)[1] is an English singer, songwriter and record producer, who has written many hit records for other recording artists. He has also had a successful recording career in his own right.
He is best known for his collaborations with Roger Greenaway. Cook's co-compositions have included "You've Got Your Troubles", and the transatlantic million-selling songs, "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing"[2] and "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress".[3] They were the first UK songwriting partnership to win an Ivor Novello Award as 'Songwriters of the Year' over two successive years.[4]
In 1997, Cook became the first British songwriter to enter the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.[1]
