Standing on the One is Jon Gibson's 1983 debut solo album. Jon got his start on Solar Records distributed through Warner/Electra/Asylum. Solar, often referred to as "Motown's second coming" featured acts like The Whisper's, Shalimar, Lakeside, and Midnight Star. Jon's signing along with another artist, Bill Wolfer, Solar created a new label for pop music called Constellation. With a single climbing the charts and a debut MTV video, it looked like Jon was well on his way to becoming a pop star. However, in mid-release, the promotion of the album was halted as Solar ran into a dispute with W.E.A. and moved their acts over to MCA. The label was never the same after that and two years after it's release, a young Christian bookstore manager named Brian Tong heard Standing on the One on a secular station and knew right away, that Jon had to be a Christian. He ordered the album, and upon reading Jon's dedication on the back cover, his gut instincts were confirmed. Brain sent the album to K.Y.M.S, a 100,000 watt station that reached the entire Southern California region. It was a smash success and is the event that would eventually lead Jon, a kid from the mean streets of San Francisco to his true calling, in a world he never knew existed.
