Maximum Darkness

Maximum Darkness is the tenth album by the Welsh rock band Man and was released on the United Artists Records label September 1975. It was the second live album released by the band, excluding contributions to two "various artists" live albums, and featured John Cipollina as special guest.[2] Rumours that Micky Jones had to over-dub Cipollina’s guitar, as it was out of tune, before the album could be released,[3] are greatly exaggerated. Only one track, "Bananas", had to have his playing removed/replaced, per Deke Leonard: "Everything ... which sounds like Cipollina is Cipollina."[4] The album spent two weeks in the UK album chart, peaking at No 25.[5] It was the band's last release on United Artists, before moving to MCA Records.
