I continued to work with other jazz artists such as Herbie Mann, Gato, Barbieri, Robin Kenyatta, Roy Ayers, Micheal Franks, Jon Lucien and Herbie Hancock. I worked with great R&B and gospel singers: Cissy Houston, Blind Boys Of Alabama, Soul Stirrers, Pops Staple, Etta James, Martha Wash and Phyllis Hyman.
