I CAN'T GO ON - DEON JACKSON

Deon Jackson was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan on January 26, 1946. He studied clarinet and drums as a child, and while in high school he formed his own vocal group, concurrently performing in area talent shows as a solo act, and composing his own original material. While performing one of those songs at a high school concert, Jackson was discovered by producer Ollie McLaughlin, who'd previously launched the career of soul diva Barbara Lewis; McLaughlin soon produced Jackson's debut single which was a Detroit-area hit. Jackson spent the next two years relentlessly touring the Southeast Michigan school dance and nightclub circuit. In 1966 he issued an LP called "Love Makes the World Go Round." In 1968 he issued this Carla effort "I Can't Go On." Rumors of post-1960s sessions remain unconfirmed, and in the years to follow, Jackson largely made his living touring the Chicago cocktail lounge circuit, never fulfilling the enormous creative and commercial promise of his mid-1960s material, although his peak output remains much-adored by aficionados of classic soul. Most recently Deon has toured in the U.K.
