They started a band together, but that didn't work out and Joe later formed The Drifters Showband in 1964, in which he was the guitarist and lead singer. But he prefered to work solo. The same year he hit the Irish charts, reaching 4th place. By 1969 he had gained an international breakthrough, with hit after hit scored all over Europe and in the USA.
