Live and act

Outside the United States, two of his songs are best known: Captain Bobby Stout covered by Manfred Mann's Earth Band on their successful debut album of the same name , which was the only song on the record that made it into the band's live setlist in the long term , and Martha's Madman, a song that was released on Earthband's most successful record, Watch , and gave the band a decade-long concert classic.

At the beginning of his career he created the songs for the folk band Serfs, for which he also played guitar. The Serfs were particularly successful in their home state of Kansas and in its neighboring states and were inducted into the Kansas Music Hall of Fame 44 years later, in 2009 .
