He's not involved with "Peter Gunn" as the creative differences had already split the group by then. The bulk of the group had first come together to work on the ABC "Lexicon of Love" album and eventually started working on their own stuff.

Enough is Enough is a pretty decent tune, as is the last track on side 1 (Waiting on a Miracle). They apparently raised a few eyebrows with If You See Kay (hmmmmm, say it aloud, doesn't that spell.... ?) before the album vanished into the sunset. I managed to snare a CD copy during the very short time Capitol had it issued, still play it every now and then.
