Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Nightingales And Bombers

Sixth studio album released by the group. The title comes from an incident in 1942 where a sound engineer for the BBC was attempting to record the nightingale’s song & also picked up the sound of bomber’s flying overhead on a mission. The recording was incorporated into the track “As Above, So Below”. Opening track (and single) “Spirits In The Night” is by Bruce Springsteen and appears on his debut album (as Spirit In The Night) Greetings From Ashbury Park, N.J. The album hit 120 on the Billboard 200.
