Description: Manfred Mann’s The Five Faces Of Manfred Mann is the British beat and R&B group’s debut studio album, originally released in the UK in 1964. The album captures the band during their early period, combining blues, R&B, jazz and British beat influences with the distinctive vocals of Paul Jones.
This 12" LP is the 2014 reissue of the US version, originally issued by Ascot Records in February 1965. Unlike the UK edition, this American track listing contains 12 songs, including “Sha-La-La,” “Come Tomorrow,” “She,” “John Hardy,” “Watermelon Man,” “I’m Your Kingpin,” “Hubble Bubble (Toil And Trouble),” “Groovin’” and “Dashing Away With The Smoothing Iron.”
The album showcases the band's versatility, moving between energetic beat numbers, blues standards and R&B performances. Highlights such as “Sha-La-La,” “Come Tomorrow” and “She” demonstrate the group's pop sensibilities, while “Watermelon Man,” “I’m Your Kingpin” and “Hubble Bubble (Toil And Trouble)” draw heavily from their R&B roots.
For collectors of British Invasion, early R&B and 1960s beat music, this 2014 Ascot reissue provides the opportunity to own the American version of one of Manfred Mann's earliest albums.
