Biography :
Terry
Huff moved to Washington, D.C., in 1959, where the Huff brothers sang
on street corners and porches. In 1962, they auditioned their newly
formed group for Van McCoy, who rejected them. Luck struck in 1963 when a
restaurant owner sponsored their trip to New York for a recording
session. As Andy and the Marglows, they recorded "Just One Look" for
Liberty Records, who released it two weeks before the hit version by
Doris Troy. Troy's version won that battle, as the Marglows never
received any exposure.
The follow-up, "I'll Get By," generated few sales despite several
publicity appearances in the area. Shortly after the second flop and
being dropped by Liberty, Andy and the Marglows were history. In the
mid-'60s, the Huff brothers tried again to interest several producers,
including Van McCoy; they were again rejected. Terry Huff finished his
education and became a member of Washington, D.C.'s police force.
