I might have to agree with what both Bob Radil & Josef are saying here. While the song by Manfred Mann you mentioned, Steve, wasn’t actually terrible, despite it playing there over the course of a couple of weeks since its release, it probably wasn’t made to be a major hit anyway. Unless they intended it to be & it simply didn’t chart as well as they intended. Soon after, when they released “Fox On The Run”, everyone dug that song a whole lot more, from listeners to society as a whole, that song charted a lot better & more successfully.
