He recruited Art Capehart, Doug Jones, Jimmy Lee, Ted Cohen, Darryl Grant, Larry La Bes and Erskine Williams to form his band. They performed R&B and funk tracks between 1977 and 1987. The band folded when its founder died.Their biggest (and only) hit in the Netherlands was the ballad 'Zoom', released in the autumn of 1982. It reached number 13 in the Dutch Top 40.
