He wrote or co-wrote over 500 songs for himself and other artists, scoring hits like "Oh! Carol," "Calendar Girl," and "Breaking Up Is Hard to Do" across several decades. His work sits at the intersection of classic pop, soft rock, and adult contemporary, and his melodic songwriting made him one of the most prolific figures of his era.
