In the 1960s, he worked with Mike Westbrook〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Celebrating a Landmark Birthday in Jazz Style; Henry Lowther Is Marking His 60th Birthday in Birmingham )〕 (beginning in 1963 and continuing into the 1980s), Manfred Mann, John Dankworth (1967–77), Graham Collier (1967), John Mayall (1968), John Warren (1968 and subsequently), Neil Ardley (1968) and Bob Downes (1969). Many of these associations continued into the 1970s. Lowther appeared for some time with The Keef Hartley Band during this period. The 1970s brought work with Mike Gibbs (1970–76), Kenny Wheeler (from 1972), Alan Cohen (1972), Michael Garrick (1972–73), Kurt Edelhagen (1974), John Taylor (1974), Stan Tracey (1976 onwards), Tony Coe (1976), Hawkwind Just one track Psi Power on their eighth studio album 25 Years On (1977), Graham Collier (1976–78), Jubiaba with Barbara Thompson (1978) and Gordon Beck (1978), in addition to his own ensemble, Quaternity.

He worked with Buzzcocks in 1980, Talk Talk from 1983 to 1991, with Peter King from 1983, and with Gil Evans in 1984.

He played with Charlie Watts's band in 1986-87, then led his own band, Still Waters, in 1987.
