MANLEY -- the Double Vinyl LP
The solo album by songwriter/bass player Manley, featuring political songs such as "Blue People", and songs about relationships, such as "About Love". Manley, also a novelist and filmmaker, is a story teller, and on this outing uses both words and bass to tell these tales.

BLOOD -- Straight Outta The Desert EP
This is a Funk-Rock outing featuring Manley on doubleneck Wal bass, and Dale Smith on 6-string Modulus bass. Tracks were recorded live to 2-track during a studio rehearsal. The group was put together specifically to play a NORML benefit, and the energy was amazing.

CUT TO THE CHASE -- Anthology Volumes 1 and 2
Born from the embers of the Chicago-based fusion band, The Balance, Cut To The Chase features the signature fretted and fretless bass work, and lyrics of Manley, and the soaring guitars of Mike Lummio. CTTC combines strong songwriting, great playing, and lyrics with depth. Think an American version of Level 42, or a Brit-funk version of the Red Hot Chili Peppers-- with a heavier emphasis on lyrics, and fretless bass.
The Anthology features tracks from earlier albums, as well as previously unreleased material of the band in rehearsal, live versions of studio cuts, and a demo or two.

VALVE -- The Dark Tongue
A dark collaboration between Manley and Layden Robinson combining elements of rock, funk, metal, punk, goth, and great storytelling. Valve. Rocky. Funky. Loud. Introspective. Moving.

MANLEY -- Turn Of The Century **NEW RELEASE**
Turn Of The Century was the first album recorded by Manley after Cut To The Chase came to an end. It was recorded at Galaxy, the 24-track studio in the basement of the "Jed Clampett" house in Chandler, AZ. Recently re-mastered, we think it sings.... and dances... and has a lot of very cool bass on it.
