"Pretty Flamingo" #29 8/6/1966

Since having initial success with "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" in '64, Manfred Mann continued with the hits in their native UK, but most of their singles weren't even released in America. Those that came out over here generally didn't do much. Here's a former UK #1 that struggled in the States. Jack Bruce played bass, as he was briefly with these guys before forming Cream with Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker. I like this one a lot!

This one's practically my favorite early Manfred Mann single hit.
