4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Mann, August 14, 2004

This review is from: Chance Rm) (Audio CD)

The 1980 release "chance" finds Mann with a new set of musicians backing him in the studio. Chris Thompson only sings on three of the tracks, but alas, this is Mann, he pulls it off with aplomb. Nine quality tracks are offered with standouts being 'Lies (through the 80's)', 'For You' (a Springsteen tune), and 'Stranded'. Thats just my opinion for the moment because I really like "Hello, I am your heart' and 'No guarantee'. As usual Mann's keyboards are phenomenal as is the production. Manfred's ability as an arranger as well as keyboardist shines again on this release. Another in a string of high quality Earth Band efforts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of the Manfred Mann Albumns, September 3, 2000

By 

Todd Reeves (Ft. Lauderdale, Florida United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Chance (Audio CD)

Mafred Mann was known for taking a bad Bruce Springstein song , improving it musically and ... tada .. making it a hit. With this albumn he did more than that. He made a whole albumn of songs worth listening to. When it came out, I had originally bought it for.."For You" (The B. Springstein song remake/improvement. Listen to the original and wonder why they bothered). I was excited to find I liked every song on here for one reason or another. A very unique and creative work that's fun to listen to. It doesn't date itself as some music does. Sounds as fresh today as it did when it was released.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stranded in Iowa, July 26, 2001

Manfred Mann is one of the most influential but lesser known groups in rock. This album is a keeper for the song "Stranded" alone. It sampled and rapped before most samplers and rappers were born.
