The Best of the Best,
By
This review is from: The Very Best Of The Moody Blues (Audio CD)
The Moody Blues is one of those groups that just has staying power. Back in the early 60's they grabbed my heart with GO NOW - a tune that has not dated and is just as driving today as it was years ago.But they went on to demonstrate they were much more than a simple rock band, creating poetry to music in Nights in White Satin, Story in Your Eyes, Voice And The Question. Justin Heywood proved this even more with the beautiful and haunting Forever Autumn. They also showed they had a wee touch of tongue through cheek in I'm Just A Singer (in a rock 'n' roll band). Then, coming into a third decade of rocking, they showed their romantic side with I Know You're Out there Somewhere and In My Wildest Dreams. So this album is a definite best of the BEST....just missing So Deep Within You.... Have found no matter how foul of a mood I am in, put on the Moody Blues and suddenly you are singing and your spirits are soaring!! The Moody Blues are medicine for the soul!

Great CD, worth every penny.,

This review is from: The Very Best Of The Moody Blues (Audio CD)
[One CD, with a running time of 78:22] This collection of Moody Blues hits would better be called, "The Moody Blues Through The Years." The songs run from their early Go Now (1964), through I Know You're Out There Somewhere (1988). Along the way, we get the touching Isn't Life Strange, the haunting Forever Autumn, the radiant The Voice, and many other great songs.My one and only complaint is that Nights In White Satin is included without Graeme Edge's spellbinding poem Late Lament. I have always found that poem to be a fantastic epilogue to the song. But that's such a minor complaint. This is a great CD, and well worth the money. By the way, the sleeve includes a one or two-sentence story of each song, and a conversation between John Reed and Justin Hayward, which tells the story of the band. Nice bonus!

This review is from: The Very Best Of The Moody Blues (Audio CD)
How do you fit so many Moody Blues songs on one CD? That's easy...you edit the hell out of them. Nights in White Satin is edited in the very beginning and also has a large portion of the ending cut out. There are others edited as well, including Tuesday Afternoon. If you don't mind that, this CD offers a good sampling of their great music. I bought it for the song Forever Autumn from War of the Worlds. It's the single version that was often played on radio. I like the song so much that I wanted both versions. In fact, this may be the only CD, other than War of the Worlds, that has this beautiful song.
