"The Man In Me" by Lonnie Mack

Indiana native Lonnie Mack didn't sound like your typical 60s artist. Mack fused rockabilly with blue-eyed soul, an unexpected combination that few others could ever hope to pull off. Mack achieved modest chart success with hits like "Memphis" (#5, 1963) and "Wham!" (#24, 1963). He also did a lot of session work for the likes of James Brown and The Doors. You can't get more versatile than that!

"The Man In Me" showcases yet another side to this underrated musician, who passed away in 2016 at the age of 74.
