Vaughn Monroe was born in October, 1911, in Akron Ohio.
Monroe continued his prolific output of recorded hits with Ziggy Talent featured with the band on "The Maharajah Of Magador" 2851, a big hit followed by an even bigger hit in "Cool Water" recorded with The Sons Of The Pioneers (2923).
Vaughn Monroe was now one of the top names in the entertainment field and soon began to explore other opportunities in show business.

 Locust St.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Monroe's sonorous ode to a crew of damned cowboys in the sky chasing what appears to be Satan's own breed of cattle (Black Angus, one wonders) was a huge pop hit in the summer of '49, quickly spawning competing versions from Peggy Lee (!), Bing Crosby and Burl Ives.
It's as if Monroe is competing with the ghost of Frank C. Stanley, the killer bass who recorded "A Hundred Fathoms Deep" at the turn of the century.
Although Monroe did turn up on "Bonanza" in the 1960s, he wasn't much of a cowboy singer but rather was the sort of genial, unthreatening presence who embalmed the mainstream pop charts in the 1945-55 period.

 Oldies.com : Vaughn Monroe   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Monroe was a Wisconsin State Trumpet Champion in 1926 with an ambition to become an opera singer.
Monroe then formed his own band in Boston in 1940, and immediately had a big hit with "There I Go", quickly followed by "My Devotion", "When The Lights Go On Again", "Let's Get Lost" and his theme tune "Racing With The Moon".
The great orchestra leader of the '40s, Vaughn Monroe, was one of the Big Band era's most popular vocalists who blazed a trail of enormous success.

 Vaughn Monroe
Another early ambition, to be an opera singer, resulted in his signing on as a vocalist with territory bands led by Austin Wylie, Larry Funk (for whom he made his recording debut) and Jack Marshand.
Monroe's first few years of recording had been quite successful, but all his biggest hits were to come.
The latter, an old Western chestnut, presaged Monroe's attempt at moving into Hollywood's singing-cowboy genre with a couple of early-'50s B-movies including The Singing Guns and The Toughest Man in Arizona.

Vaughn Monroe - Dirty Water - The Boston Rock & Roll Museum
What they did in 1948 is they organized deejays from all the big cities (WHDH in Boston) to begin simultaneously playing Monroe's record "There I Go!" eight to ten times a day and voila, the record sold 100,000 in a couple of months time.
This was not foolproof however for when they do the same thing to another Vaughn song, "Bamboo" the results are negligible.

Monroe had already appeared with his band in 1944's Meet the People and Carnegie Hall (1947) but Singing Guns was crafted as a star vehicle with the rather stolid Monroe as a sort of Wild West Robin Hood.
Although a better singer than actor, Monroe nevertheless handled himself well and both films were well directed by R.G. Springsteen, whose no-nonsense approach saved many a humdrum Western.
Venturing into the new field of television, Monroe later became a pitchman for RCA Victor.

Vaughn Monroe led a sweet big band during the '40s -- a rarity for a vocalist at that time.
His baritone croon sent a heap of recordings onto the charts but his vocal style was so unswingingly square that he made Perry Como sound like a feverish hepcat.
Like such cowboy converts as Bing Crosby and Dean Martin, Monroe really sounded like he was sitting around a campfire singing to his horse under a canopy of stars.
