He was best known for his international hit \"Anak\" (1978), which became the best-selling Philippine music record of all time, selling 33 million copies worldwide. His rendition of \"Bayan Ko\" became the anthem of the opposition against the regime of Ferdinand Marcos during the 1986 People Power Revolution. He was heavily associated with Pinoy rock."
