Manny Martínez
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Manny Martínez was the original drummer for The Misfits. He graduated from Lodi High School in 1971, and played drums in a number of Lodi, NJ bands. As a veteran of the local scene, Manny had planned in bands with Glenn Danzig, and in January of 1977, was asked by Glenn to drum for his first serious musical project, The Misfits. After two months of rehearsals, Manny completed the band's lineup by introducing Danzig to his friend Jerry Caiafa (who later adopted the stage name Jerry Only). Manny's jazzy style of drum playing was recorded only on the first single, Cough/Cool. By the end of 1977, and after only a few live shows, Manny was asked to leave the band due to his unreliability and was replaced by Jim Catania.
