He then formed a studio band with John Robinson (G ex-Blackfeather), Peter Jones (Electric Piano) and Grahan Morgan (D) to record his debut solo album Beramiada.

In 1987 he formed Jump Back Jack playing West Coast rock and funk in the vein of Blood Sweat and Tears, Cold Blood and Tower of Power, issuing two albums in 1987 and 1988.
