Carl Mann- Mona Lisa
SKU: 604988120424
Just seventeen years of age when his Rockabilly-styled revival of Nat 'King' Cole's 'Mona Lisa' sold a million copies in 1959, Carl Mann was among the last of Sam Phillips/Sun Records' R&R discoveries. Yet perhaps because he was younger and enjoyed success in a more commercially accessible style, Mann was never accorded quite the same iconic status as other Sun Rock & Rollers. Nonetheless the body of work he recorded for Sam Phillips was hugely impressive, and his reputation took a further upswing when he came to the UK and Europe for R&R and Rockabilly festivals in the late 1970s. This compilation anthologises his releases on Sun's Phillips International subsidiary between 1959-62, preceded by a one-off 45 he'd cut for a local label, a couple of years earlier.
