ManDoki Soulmates is a music project launched in 1993 by producer and musician Leslie Mandoki. Leslie Mandoki achieved greater fame as a member of the group Dschinghis Khan in the late 1970s and early 1980s. After the group disbanded, he became more active as a producer. From his passion for jazz rock of the 1970s, he developed the idea for the ManDoki Soulmates project in the early 1990s. Since its foundation, more than 10 albums have been released under this title. The artists involved include Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), Jack Bruce (Cream), Chris Thompson (Manfred Mann's Earth Band), David Clayton-Thomas (Blood, Sweat & Tears), Bobby Kimball (Toto), Michael Brecker and Randy Brecker, Nik Kershaw, Steve Khan, Al Di Meola, Bill Evans (Miles Davis Band), Anthony Jackson (Steely Dan, Paul Simon, Bee Gees, Chick Corea) and Victor Bailey (Madonna, Weather Report, Mary J. Blige), Chaka Khan and Steve Lukather (Toto), Till Brönner, John Helliwell (Supertramp) and Eric Burdon. In 2019, ManDoki Soulmates made it into the German charts for the first time at number 14 with the two albums Living in the Gap and Hungarian Pictures. The follow-up Utopia for Realists did not make it into the charts. Their return to the German charts came three years later with the album A Memory of Our Future. The longplayer climbs to number 27 in the German album charts.
