without a doubt one of the greatest songs ever made, and they took it and made it epic that night. simply amazing.

One of the greatest , Saw Manfred Mann in an outdoor concert + several other bands like Uriah Heep , Country Joe , and others. It was raining for most of the concert , so I was covered with a sheet of plastic for most of the time ; but when Manfred Mann started playing I forgot about the rain and the plastic sheet , like most people did and enjoyed their performance . At the end of the concert he said : Thank you for standing in the rain for us . Truly a performance I'll never forget.

No comparison to Bruce Springsteen, lol. However, I do like the guitar solo.

Funny, I think that Springsteen's version stinks. This is musically much better, guitar and all. It is true that you do not see Springsteen's clumsy walk on stage here but I'm not missing it one bit...

if you follow manfreds career you would recognize that he mostly performs songs written by others.
manfred says, he's much better in performing others songs than writing own songs. and he is fuckin' right. his versions are very very different from the original and much better.
his versions are ...( 3 weeks ago by AngusYoungRocks79)
his versions are pretty much the same. So what your saying is that he is just some prom band.
I bet that im much better than preforming other peoples songs too. i can play stairway to heaven, but i definatally couldnt have written anything that good... i guess that makes me as good as manfred mann.

This dude is a MUCH better singer than The Employee, but that's not saying much! Isn't this singer's daughter the girl who played Kevin's older sister on "The Wonder Years"? And didn't he write "Build Me Up Buttercup" and "Handbags and Gladrags"?"
If you can make ...( 2 weeks ago by DocKiffer)
If you can make this songs sound a thousand times better than the original and in this way make them your own, then you're as good as Manfred Mann, at least in rearanging songs.
By the way, he wrote some good stuff by himself, too.
Are you as ...( 2 weeks ago by monkmann)
Are you as successful as Manfred has been? You can play stairway. That's great. That makes you much better than me and most of us I think. But can you re-arrange the song? Can you re-arrange it that way that it'll hit the top of the charts again? Have you studied and thaught music as Manfred did? If you can answer with yes than you are as good as Manfred Mann. Applause!
Handbags and ...( 2 weeks ago by monkmann)
Handbags and Galdrags was written by Mike D'Abo. Mike was Manfred's lead singer from 66-69. This version of Spirits is sung by Chris Thompson.
