Barry Manilow, whose real name is Barry Alan Pinkus (Brooklyn, 1946), studied at the famous New-York Julliard Conservatory of Music and became arranger for the well-known Ed Sullivan Television Show. In 1974 he started a career as a solo singer and had quite some success with hits like'Mandy, I write the Songs','One Voice'and this Copacabana, a Latin-American sounding fine swinging piece, skilfully arranged by Johan de Meij. Another classic on the repertoire!
