Shortly after they took Neal Schon (Journey) in their studio and created the band "Hardline". Finally the success was not long coming in. The most favoured hits were: "Hot Cherie", "Takin' me down" and "Can't find my way."

The record company MCA Records knew about their great success with the band "Hardline", so that they filmed several music-videos. Likewise they toured through the United States. Among other things they supported Mister Big and Streetboys, played in the music scene of L.A. with much success. Due to the desertion of Paul Atkinson, the manager of "Hardline", from the record label MCA Records there wasn't just a dispute with MCA Records but also with the band "Hardline". Johnny and Joey Gioeli dedicated themselves their families for some time and they're disappeared from the scene.
