Although he was born in San Francisco,  Leo Ezekiel Mannes grew up in Los Angeles. While still in high school he became proficient on several instruments, and within a few years had embarked on a musical career, one that soon led to a something special. zekeThat occurred around 1930 when the young performer — now calling himself Zeke Manners — helped a radio station concoct a story about a group of transplanted hillbillies living near Los Angeles. Not surprisingly, a faux backwoods musical group known as the Beverly Hill Billies was soon making a splash in local clubs and on the radio. The guys did pretty well for a while, even turning out some good-selling records, but within a few years things began to unravel. The group itself would continue to do its thing with various members through the years, but Manners packed his accordion and headed to New York.

As it turned out, he was welcomed with open arms by New Yorkers. The sophisticates enjoyed his corn-pone act, and he also appealed to the large number of rural folks who were flooding the city looking for a new way of life. Even though it was all tongue in cheek — he called himself a Jewish Hillbilly — he became very popular on the radio and sold a lot of records. You might say that even though Nashville was the capitol of country music, Manners was the king of New York’s thriving country music scene.

During World War II Manners served in the Army entertainment division, and in the post-war years worked on both coasts in radio and early TV. He also continued to excel as a songwriter, with successes like ”The Pennsylvania Polka,” a big hit for the Andrews Sisters (which enjoyed a revival years later in the movie Groundhog Day). Always a go-getter, as the years passed Manners did everything from stand-up comedy to running a mail order business. He even made a couple of small appearance in movies, one of them his nephew Albert Brooks’ Lost In America. But his most ironic job might have been the one he got by suing the producers of the popular Beverly Hillbillies TV show. To settle the suit, they made him the musical director of the program, and he soon became a friend and musical collaborator of its star, Buddy Ebsen. He finally wound down in his later years, and was 89 when he died in 2000.

A Quick NOTE ON GRADING AND SHIPPING:

As you can see from my feedback, I try hard to earn your POSITIVE FEEDBACK and FIVE STAR RATINGS.

If for any reason your transaction was NOT SATISFACTORY, pls contact me and I will work something out with you. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A REASON TO GIVE ME A NEGATIVE RATING or a LOW STAR RATING.

Quick note on grading:

The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately

When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise.
"EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing.
"VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing.
"Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise.

These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment.

Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.

Records will be packed safely between corrugated cardboard in a sturdy box with plenty of padding for safe shipment.

Shipment is usually Media Mail, unless you request another service. Shipping is at your risk, I will be happy to insure items at your cost.

I charge actual postage plus a small handling fee for packing materials

As always, I guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't like the item, just return it, and I will refund the full purchase price.

If you are in the San Francisco area, I welcome pick-up in person.

I am very happy to ship records worldwide.

Please use the EBAY shipping cost as a guideline. 

 As always, I would appreciate any suggestions and corrections from you, pls contact me with any question.


Thank you very much, and enjoy these great records!!!
