Manfred Mann

British Invasion band named for its keyboardist leader, combined jazz, folk, blues, and Brill Building pop.

Biography

Keyboardist Manfred Mann's eponymous band started out as part of the 1960s British invasion, combining jazz, blues, Brill Building pop, and the songs of Bob Dylan. In the '70s they added synths and Bruce Springsteen songs, and turned into the thinking man's prog-rock band. The common thread in both incarnations: fantastic musicianship and a sense of humor.
