In 1982, Leon produced Shalamar's album Friends. The album topped the US Top R&B Albums chart, propelled by the single "A Night to Remember", which reached number eight on the US R&B charts. The album would be certified Platinum. Leon spent the next couple of years producing hit songs for The Whispers ("In the Raw", "Tonight"), Gladys Knight & The Pips ("Save the Overtime (For Me)"), Tavares ("Ten to One") among others.[16] In that same year, he served as mentor to the production team Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.[21] Dick Griffey said of Leon at the time, "Aside from Quincy Jones, I think Leon is the hottest producer around. He's grown with SOLAR and has been exposed to other creative forces in putting together different kinds of songs and sounds. He's gotten a different kind of polish and sophistication."[22]

The album, Gentlemen Take Polaroids, was a giant leap forwards in terms of the completely original sound that the band were striving for. But after the departure of probably their most conventional musician, Rob Dean on guitar, and with the introduction of Steve Nye as producer, David Sylvian led the band to even stranger places than before, and in the process created a pop masterpiece. And yet this was to be their last studio LP. After the following Sons Of Pioneers tour in 1982, and just as it seemed that the world was finally falling in love with them, the band split up. The posthumously released live album, Oil On Canvas, recorded during their 7 night sell-out run at Hammersmith Odeon, would be their most successful LP.
