Deon Jackson

**Deon Jackson** was a soulful Detroit-born singer and songwriter who made his mark in the 1960s with his smooth, upbeat sound. Best known for his 1966 hit *"Love Makes the World Go Round"*—a catchy, brass-driven tune that became a dance floor favorite—Jackson blended pop, soul, and R&B into his music. Though he never replicated the chart success of his signature track, his work gained a second life in later decades, especially within the Northern Soul scene in the UK, where his recordings became sought-after gems for collectors. Jackson’s music, characterized by his warm vocals and infectious grooves, continues to resonate on compilations celebrating the era’s vibrant soul sounds. His legacy endures as a testament to the timeless appeal of 1960s soul.
