It was first released in the United Kingdom on 11 September 1964〔 by His Master's Voice. In late October/early November, the album was released in Canada by Capitol Records. The Canadian track listing was almost the same as the UK version, except it included the hit "Do Wah Diddy Diddy" instead of "I've Got My Mojo Working". The record has been called "one of the great blues-based British invasion albums; it's a hot, rocking record that benefits from some virtuoso playing as well".〔http://www.allmusic.com/album/r468382 〕 The American version of the album (their second U.S. release following ''The Manfred Mann Album'') was released in February 1965 by Ascot Records (a subsidiary of United Artists) with a very different track listing. == Songs and styles == The songs on the original version of ''the Five Faces of Manfred Mann'' are R&B, including the band's cover versions of Howlin' Wolf's ("Smokestack Lightning"), Muddy Waters' ("Got My Mojo Working"), and Bo Diddley's ("Bring It to Jerome") as well as a few of the group's own compositions — and jazz: particularly noticeable in the instrumental sections are Manfred Mann's keyboard work, Mike Vickers flute and saxophone work, and Mike Hugg's vibes — and the album includes the Cannonball Adderley song ("Sack O' Woe") from the RnB-influenced school of early 60s jazz .〔 The American release is more pop - oriented with the inclusion of the hits "Sha-La-La", "Hubble Bubble Toil and Trouble" and "Come Tomorrow" as well as Jones' compositions and the American folk song "John Hardy" but also includes a smaller selection of the band's R&B and jazz influences. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Five Faces of Manfred Mann」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
