Gould went on to form the mainstream band Runner on Island Records in the late 1970s after Rare Bird broke up. The band's debut album charted in the Billboard 200.[3]

When Runner did not work out due to differences with the label, Gould joined the Alvin Lee band in 1980, with whom he played bass on different occasions during two decades. On albums such as Free Fall (1980) and RX5 (1981) he played an active role as vocalist and co-composer.[4]
