Not much is known about Manna. The album was recorded by Robert Paul 'Bobby' Guidotti (drums), Anthony Dean and James Daniel (guitar) and Denny Correll (vocals, RIP 2002). Correll came from the Blues Image. Guidotti was later supporting Chris Thompson. There is little information about the origin of the band Manna, the name could be due to the biblical 'manna (bread)'. On the other hand, the musicians could also have been referring to the 1971 Bread album Manna.
At no point Manna redefine music. But there's something about their idea of (then) contemporary rock music with a certain Southern heft that appeals to me immensely. It rocks in an extremely pleasant way, while at the same time the band rarely loses itself in banalities. On the contrary: Bread may have been an influence, but so were the Allman Brothers, CSNY, McCartney and so on. Many influences, but here they don't spoil the broth.
