<P> In 1981, Gold produced, co-wrote, sang and played on three 10cc tracks that appeared on the hit - making pop - rock band's 1981 album Ten Out of 10 . Subsequently, Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman of 10cc invited Gold to become a member of the group . Although he had worked with them in the studio, business conflicts prevented him from joining their ranks . In late 1983, 10cc broke up, and in the aftermath, Gold and Gouldman formed Wax . Wax recorded and toured for five years . They enjoyed international success, particularly in the UK, where the duo had several Top 10 hits including "Right Between the Eyes" and their biggest hit "Bridge to Your Heart ." Wax broke up as a recording and touring entity in 1989, but Gold and Gouldman continued to write and record together whenever possible . </P> <P> Gold played on Cher's hit 1989 album Heart of Stone and, during the early' 90s, wrote and composed hits for Trisha Yearwood as well as Wynonna Judd, for whom he co-wrote the #1 single "I Saw The Light" with Lisa Angelle . (Later, Gold would produce Angelle on her own album, which featured a number of songs on whose authorship and composition they collaborated .) He also produced singles for Vince Gill, wrote and produced tracks for Celine Dion, and arranged a cover of the Everly Brothers' hit "All I Have to Do Is Dream" that was sung by stars Jeff Bridges and Karen Allen in the 1984 science - fiction film Starman . </P> <P> In the 1990s, Gold once again joined forces with ex-bandmates Karla Bonoff, Wendy Waldman and Kenny Edwards to re-form Bryndle and release their first full - length album, Bryndle . In 1996, Gold left Bryndle and released the children's Halloween - oriented novelty album Halloween Howls with John Waite, featuring the track "Spooky Scary Skeletons ." The same year, he released the solo album...Since 1951, and produced Stephen Bishop's Blue Guitar album . Thereafter, he recorded the psychedelic' 60s tribute album Greetings from Planet Love under the pseudonym "The Fraternal Order Of The All," releasing it on his own record label, "QBrain Records ." This album was a multi-tracked solo affair with Gold essentially playing all of the instruments and singing all of the vocals on original songs in the style of Gold's favorite 1960s bands such as The Beatles, The Byrds and The Beach Boys . He produced, composed, and / or wrote tracks for numerous films, such as the comedy Rectuma from director Mark Pirro, and contributed songs to many television soundtracks and commercials . Among his more high - profile gigs, he sang "Final Frontier," the theme song for the television sitcom Mad About You . In a remarkable turn of events, his rendition of the song was used as the wake - up call for the Mars Pathfinder space probe in 1996 . Gold also produced seven albums for Japanese singer - songwriter Eikichi Yazawa . </P> <P> In 2000, Gold compiled a Wax rarities album, House of Wax on Wax, as well as recording and releasing a new solo album The Spence Manor Suite; this last was followed in 2002 by another solo collection, Intermission . In the early 2000s, he formed a Byrds tribute band, Byrds of a Feather, which performed in the Los Angeles area . He appeared in a 2006 concert with the classic rock group America, and singer - songwriter Stephen Bishop, and the performance was later released as a DVD titled America And Friends - Live at the Ventura Theater . The show featured Gold performing "Thank You for Being a Friend," "Final Frontier," "Bridge to Your Heart" and "Lonely Boy," as well as accompanying America and Bishop on guitar and vocals . Gold had earlier produced America's Holiday Harmony Christmas album back in 2002, wherein he also played most of the instruments and co-wrote the track "Christmas in California ." </P>
