Vaughan Mason & Crew was an American funk and post-disco based group, best known for their single "Bounce, Rock, Skate, Roll", which reached #5 on the US Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart in 1980, riding the crest of the roller disco wave that was popular at the time.[2] In 1981, the band released the single "Jammin' Big Guitar", which charted at #65.[3] "Bounce, Rock, Skate, Roll" has since been used in various samples by De La Soul, Mr. Magic and Daft Punk. Also in 1982 Vaughan Mason & Butch Dayo teamed up to deliver "You Can Do It" on Salsoul Records along with "Party On The Corner" in 1983 from the EP Feel My Love.
