He was drummer for Charles Aznavour from 1974 till 1982.John Renbourn said of Cox, "When we [in Pentangle] worked on those [old folk songs], Terry Cox worked out his percussion patterns to match the patterns in the songs exactly.
In that respect he was the opposite of a folk-rock drummer."In 1970, Terry Cox moved from the United Kingdom to the island of Minorca, Spain.
For a time, he operated a restaurant there.
Circa 2009-2011, he was performing there with local jazz musicians.
