Exchanging ideas and influences, Mano began to fuse his many influences into a distinctive style. Prince, James Brown, Parliment Funkadelic and others were part of a collection that also included The Beatles, Pink Floyd and The Police.

The influence of Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, David Gilmour and Eric Clapton can be heard in his playing. Mano's band eventually became Smoov Earth, the creators of alternative funk. Smoov Earth played in many New York clubs, including the legendary CBGB's and the West End Gate. Smoov Earth had a great live sound and always moved the crowd.
