Do Wah Diddy - Manfred Mann

HISTORICAL NOTE: In '64 - when Do Wah Diddy first broke into the U.S. charts - as a publicity stunt to HYPE this 'new band' - some "Top-40" AM radio stations repeated a story claiming that all the member of the band had LEGALLY CHANGED their names to match that of the Organ Player and Group Leader...Manfred Mann. So the twist was that the name of the band and the name of all the band members was supposedly the same... Manfred Mann
