THE MOODY BLUES
To most people The
Moody Blues personify
one thing and one thing only - Knights In White Satin. An epic
song filled with passion and powerful orchestral integration. These guys
(who are far from calling it quits) emerged in the early 60's (!). This
collection however covers songs of more and lesser impact through the
period of 1967-1991. Quite a career chunk. Even though many of their ballads
are a bit soppy, the progressive rock mystique of The
Moody Blues, which
peaked in the 70s, still exists today - they still have a store, Threshold,
which was part of a whole chain they had in the 70s! Even if you skip
through the 16 preceding tracks to get to the climactic Knights In
White Satin, it's still one timeless track making the disc a keeper
and them rock icons (of a more subtle range).
