Discography and career highlights
- Songwriter, producer, arranger and composer
- Founding member of the group "Blondie"

Celebrated keyboard player, synthesizer pioneer, (don't ask him if he can play guitar), can puddle along on bass, keeps a simple drumbeat, and can mask all personal failings with studio wizardry. Commands a studio.
Songwriter of three #1 hits over two decades, "Atomic", "Picture This" and "Maria".
