Created the Honeydrippers studio "group" featuring Robert Plant on vocals.

The Honeydrippers peaked at #3[2] in early 1985 on the Billboard Hot 100 with a remake of the Phil Phillips’ tune “Sea of Love”, and hit the top 30 with “Rockin’ at Midnight”, originally a Roy Brown recording and a rewrite of “Good Rockin’ Tonight.” With the EP’s success, Plant stated that a full album would be recorded, but it never was. The band appeared on Saturday Night Live on 15 December 1984, performing “Rockin’ at Midnight” and “Santa Claus Is Back in Town.” The band featured Brian Setzer on guitar, Tom Barney on bass, Paul Shaffer on piano, Buddy Williams on drums, Michael Brecker, Lou Marini, and Ronnie Cuber on saxophones, Jon Faddis on trumpet and Tom Malone on trombone.
