Jack Merlin

Born 1933 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

It seems that he first recorded for the John Dolan's New Phoenix label located in Hartland, Wisconsin in the early sixties before recording four singles for Dot, Cameo and Hickory Records between 1962 and 1965.

In November 1965, Billboard reported : "Jack Merlin (who is also a policeman) has produced a new record on his own COR label which was grabbed up by MGM a&r man, Jim Vienneau. The disk, « He’s Coming Home », by the Indigos, has been released on the Verve-Folkways label."
