To Whom It May Concern
This letter is to prove the set of maple wood tom-toms and chrome snare drums etc. belonged to Don Powell the drummer with the group Slade.
I used the drums in the studio from 1971 onwards for overdubs etc. on all our singles and LPs from that date up to the year 1988.
Yours faithfully
Don Powell
