In 1988 he recorded When Dream and Day Unite with Dream Theater, but was expelled shortly after, being replaced later by James Labrie. Charlie was much larger than the rest of the band members and there were also personal and creative differences with respect to work. It was felt that their vocal style and general attitude towards music did not fit with the heavy metal part that the compositions of the group had.

In 2004 he met with Dream Theater for the Special Concert When Dream and Day gathering . He sang a couple of songs with the band to celebrate the 15 years of the release of the album.

In 2005, Charlie published a solo album entitled or : a trilogy , the first of what would be a work in three parts.
