Solid Mann

"The 1980 release "chance" finds Mann with a new set of musicians backing him in the studio. Chris Thompson only sings on three of the tracks, but alas, this is Mann, he pulls it off with aplomb. Nine quality tracks are offered with standouts being 'Lies (through the 80's)', 'For You' (a Springsteen tune), and 'Stranded'. Thats just my opinion for the moment because I really like "Hello, I am your heart' and 'No guarantee'. As usual Mann's keyboards are phenomenal as is the production. Manfred's ability as an arranger as well as keyboardist shines again on this release. Another in a string of high quality Earth Band efforts."

One of their best record ever

"Chance are one of Manfred Mann`s best album ever recorder up to date. Really greate sound on every song on this record, i buyed it first on Lp record but when it was relised as cd I buyed it including several bonus track in it. Great synth playing, harmonic and powerfull. The song Strandet is just fantastic, other songs that is great is For you,Lies, Adolescent Dream,Hello, I am your heart and rest of the album. It`s timeless an i never get tired of listening to this songs. They are still some of my favorites thru the years. I recomend you strongly to listen to this album to hear what is all about."
