He did more session work with Al Jarreau, Pointer Sisters, Patti LaBelle, Kenny Loggins, Jude Cole, Eddie Money, Tina Arena, Martika, Jack Wagner, Danny Wilde, Mark Jordan, Matthew Sweet, Julia Fordham, Robyn Hitchcock, and bands like XTC, The Sugarcubes, Hall & Oates, Cock Robin, The Rembrandts, and The Sugarplastic.
