Morris Vaughn

[Roburt]

Anyone know much at all about Morris Vaughn.

I know he cut in Chicago with Jack Daniels but apparently he originally came from St Louis & cut solo tracks (for Gateway in 68) & group tracks (with the¯»¿ Soulful Illusion") in the city.

I bought his Chicago cut 45 back when it was a new UK release but it seems it's the other side of his Fontana 45 that is favoured now (but I don't remember every playing tuva side at all down the years).

Used to play "Make It Look Good" off my shiny UK demo, many years ago. Nice record, know very little about the artist.

Got UK Fontana demo. Had it years. Knew about the release in the early 70's. Very revered obscurity on UK. Richard Searling mentions it to me sometimes. Think he told me about it originally--before VaVas--before he started dj'ing. Always considered the A side to be the side--My Love keeps growing. It never sounded quite right then but nowadays it sounds pretty good crossover.

There's a photo of the man, along with Johnny Moore and Jack Daniels in Robert Pruter's book.

it's all about "just one look" for me, such a great tune!

If you are asking about his UK Fontana 45 ("My Love Keeps Growing"), it was' issued' as that is the version of the 45 I bought back in summer 1969.
