In 1979 Roger Ferris went on to co-write a further two hits for the RAK label. "Boy Oh Boy" recorded by Racey, and produced by Mickie Most. Smokie recorded "Babe It's Up To You." Both songs charted in various territories throughout europe.Prior to his association with RAK Records Roger Ferris was lyricist for the 1970s blockbuster comedy film "On The Buses" theme song.

He was also an engineer on recordings by The Beatles at Abbey Road Studios in the late 1960s.
