As a singer, Batt's solo albums included "Schizophonia" and "Tarot Suite" (1979, Epic Records) (both with the London Symphony Orchestra). From these albums came the European hit songs "Railway Hotel", "Lady of the Dawn" and "". The latter tells the story of Moroccans fighting the French colonial power. He worked on these recordings with such fellow artists as Colin Blunstone and Roger Chapman as singers on "Tarot Suite". A version of "Introduction (The Journey of a Fool)" from "Tarot Suite" was used as the theme for the Sydney radio station, Triple M, from its first broadcast in 1980 until well into the 1990s. Over the course of May 2010, this theme tune, still based on the main central riff from "Introduction (The Journey of a Fool)" was re-recorded by Slash, former Guns N' Roses guitarist, as a new theme to mark the 30th anniversary of Triple M in Sydney. This was released to air at the end of June 2010.
