So, in 1979 he quit his job and devoted himself professionally to music, he says, when he was paid the equivalent of his annual wages for a single commercial jingle.

Özkan Uğur joined the group in 1972, and the band was renamed MFÖ, for the initials of its members' names.

MFÖ worked with Turkey's most popular singer Ajda Pekkan, wrote songs and played the concert circuit.

The group released the album Ele Güne Karşı Yapayalnız, which hit number one and stayed there for 26 consecutive weeks.

In 1989 Güner joined forces with his friend, Turgut Berkes, to build Turkey's first-ever A-class recording studio, "FT", which became a legend over the years.
