In the 1980s Jan was Guitarist-in-Chief with Cartoon Biker Band Zodiac Mindwarp and the Love Reaction, supporting Guns n Roses on extensive tours of the US and Canada. Other musical collaborations include Aswad, Maxi Priest and Pete Shelley. In the 1990s Jan recorded three highly respected solo albums: Beyond the Common Ground, Spirit and Prickly Pear.

Some shredders may have grumbled about the lack of guitar wizardry on Jans third record, but Prickly Pear firmly established Jan as a composer who plays guitar rather than a mere guitar hero. Pop tunes featuring vocalist Carol Decker and jazzy songsmithing displayed Jans versatility and growth.
