After leaving EMI and the final Climie Fisher album Coming In For The Kill, Climie signed to Sony`s Columbia label as a solo artist, releasing an album called Soul Inspiration in 1992. However unlike his former hits with partner Rob Fisher, neither the album or attending single managed to reach their respective UK Top 40.

From this point Climie switched to a role in production, producing and writing songs for a number of 1990s pop artists, such as Louise Redknapp and MN8.

Towards the end of the 1990s, Climie became involved with Eric Clapton, not only appearing as keyboardist, but also as producer, musical director and co-writer.

His most recent work with Clapton is on Clapton and J.J. Cale`s album The Road To Escondido. He also produced the Cream live reunion album Royal Albert Hall London May 2-3-5-6 2005. Apart from Clapton, he also worked with former Doobie Brothers member Michael McDonald on his Motown albums.
