After getting his first Jazz guitar when he was 12 years old, Hanoch began composing his own songs. By the age of 14 he had completed his first song - Laila (Night). Along with another member of the Kibbutz, Meir Ariel, he wrote more songs, and joined the Kibbutz’s band - “HaMishmaron”. Songs from that time include Agadat Deshe (Grass Legend), Nisa LaYam (We’ll Go To The Beach), Risim (Eyebrows) and Yom Acharon (Last Day). At 16, he took acting classes at Beit Tzvi arts school.
Although at that point he was more interesting in acting than in creating music, Hanoch was recruited by the Nahal army troupe when he turned 18, and wrote a few songs for the troupe while in the service. He was released from service in 1968, but not before he participated in recording a best-of album made of re-recorded versions to 50’s and 60’s hits by the troupe called Kol HaKavod LaNahal (Well Done, Nahal). In this album Hanoch sang Mitria Bishnaim along with the troupe’s star, Shula Chen. The two were mentioned on the cover, an innovation for army band recordings.
