1981 Original in shrink with custom inner sleeve. "Chance" is an album by Manfred Mann's Earth Band, released in 1980. It features a mix of progressive rock and pop rock, a signature blend for the band. The album includes notable tracks such as "Lies (Through the 80s)" and "Stranded," both of which showcase the band's intricate arrangements and thoughtful lyrics. "For You," a Bruce Springsteen cover, also stands out as a highlight, demonstrating the band's ability to reinterpret and breathe new life into existing songs. The album is characterized by its use of synthesizers and complex compositions, which were hallmarks of the Earth Band's sound during this period.

"Chance" marks a period of transition for Manfred Mann's Earth Band, featuring both new and continuing members who contributed to its unique sound. The lineup for this album included Manfred Mann on keyboards, Steve Waller and Mick Rogers on guitars, Pat King on bass, and Geoff Britton on drums. Each member's contributions helped to create a cohesive yet dynamic album that balances lyrical depth with musical complexity. Though not as commercially successful as some of their earlier works, "Chance" remains a respected entry in the band's discography, especially among fans of their more progressive and eclectic style.
