The Pretty Flamingo LP was one of the very first albums I ever owned. Definitely ahead of its time with the jazz influences, including the 5/4 "Driva Man." I also love the audacity of changing "Tennessee Waltz" to a 4/4 rock 'n' roll beat.

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

Yeah, great man! A friend of mine had Mannfred Mann's "Joybringer" played on his wedding... in a chuch! He divorced after a few years... Anyway, big respect to Manfred Mann for fighting against apartheid as well. Great underrated virtuoso that should be put alongside greats such as Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Tony Banks or Mike Ratledge!
