Never heard of him. Rest In Power.

Always liked the jazz oriented side of early disco. One tune was this one by Vernon, similar in idea to Donald Byrd's CHANGE MAKES ME WANNA HUSTLE.
O'jays meet Crown Heights Affair:

I also always liked this close up cover of his friendly face. He just struck me as a guy who really would be your sunshine.

Rest in peace Mr. Burch.
