Details: 2016 collection. The smooth vocal harmonies of the Johnny Mann singers played a big part in creating the sound of the ‘60s in America as heard on radio and television commercials. Mann composed and recorded signature jingles for numerous radio stations across the nation and created the music for hundreds of product commercials, becoming the leading West Coast source for advertising music that required a vocal group. During the early '60s, the Johnny Mann singers were, alongside Martin Denny and The Ventures, prolific members of the Liberty records stable. The Singers recorded 40 albums, earning them a few Grammy Awards along the way. Our edition comprises three mid-century concept albums, which showcase Johnny Mann's tremendous musical versatility and genius for arrangement; Night, with its controversial smoking nude packaging, and two exuberant sets which pay impressive tribute to the popular songs of the 1920s and '30s.
