Kim

Vaughn was one of the first singers to use an electric microphone. Previously, to sing with an acoustic microphone one had to pretty much shout into it. Doing that into an electronic mike would damage everyone's eardrums! So it's said that Vaughn wrote the book on how to sing into the new mikes. (It wasn't really a book.)
