Manfred Mann, aka The Manfreds as they sang in their first hit song "5-4-3-2-1 it's The Manfred's", were considered one of the finest and most respected British Invasion groups of the 1960's; their records having a timeless quality that only a few of the many bands from the era attained. Over the decade until they broke up to pursue successful solo careers, with Paul Jones until 1966 then Mike D'Abo as lead singers, the band had four No.1 and a string of Top 10 singles, all enduringly memorable songs, including 5-4-3-2-1, Do Wah Diddy Diddy, Pretty Flamingo, My Name Is Jack, Fox On The Run, Mighty Quinn, Just Like A Woman, Ragamuffin Man, Semi-Detached Suburban Mr James, and Ha Ha Said The Clown. The other original members were Tom McGuinness (guitar), Mike Hugg (drums and keyboards), and Mann (keyboards).
