About Paul Philip Arthur Dean

Attended the Swan School, St Probus School and Salisbury Tech College.

At St Probus he formed a rock band that would eventually become the legendary "Jerusalem'. The band was managed and produced by Ian Gillan (Deep Purple). Jerusalem were years before their time and within the Music Business are recognised as pathfinders for the genres Metal, Doom and Stoner which didn't appear until a few years later.

Paul was the leader and main songwriter. Jerusalem have become a cult band Worldwide over the years and the remastered reissues of their work are still selling well through their new label Rockadrome Records after 47 years. They were originally signed by Deram (Decca). Paul went on to form Pussy, Gillan/Dean and the Glory Gang.

Throughout his life he has also produced and helped young bands in Southern Africa and S.E Asia, to this day. In later life he became a Professional Golfer/Coach and played on the 3rd level European PGA Tour and the European Seniors Challenge Tour.

He also appeared as a special extra in various feature films including Reign of Fire (Double for Gerrard Butler), Veronica Guerin and Count of Monte Christo.
