1	The Best of the Moody Blues (1997) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist This single-CD compilation doesn't do too much more than scratch the surface of the band's sound at its most popular points, but it does do one thing that no prior Moody Blues compilation ever did -- it includes "Go Now," which, as the notes point out, is still the group's top-charting single in England. What it doesn't do is get "Go Now" in ... see all copies from £7.32! new only from £8.37!
2	This Is the Moody Blues (1974) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist It might surprise those coming in late to their story that the original double-LP version of this album from 1974 was the first compilation devoted to the Moody Blues' work. That's seven years after their switch from R&B-based British Invasion rock & roll to psychedelic music, and ten years into their overall history, an awfully long time for a ... see all copies from £5.14! new only from £13.82!
3	Days of Future Passed (1967) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist This album marked the formal debut of the psychedelic-era Moody Blues; though they'd made a pair of singles featuring new (as of 1966) members Justin Hayward and John Lodge, Days of Future Passed was a lot bolder and more ambitious. What surprises first-time listeners -- and delighted them at the time -- is the degree to which the group shares the ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £10.51!
4	December (2003) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist One must give the Moody Blues credit for tenacity and a single-pointed focus. For 37 years they've put forth a startlingly consistent series of themes: optimism, a kind of blind-faith spirituality that the universe is in good hands and that people are by and large decent and kind, and love songs that can be a bit twee, but nonetheless connect when ... see all copies from £6.75! new only from £6.75!
5	Strange Times (1999) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist A lot of people will laugh at the idea of a new Moody Blues album, eight years after their last new release and 35 years after the original band started in the business. The fact is, though, that this is about the liveliest and leanest that the group has sounded in more than 20 years. Among this collection of 14 songs, ten have very pleasing ... see all copies from £9.31! new only from £9.31!
6	In Search of the Lost Chord (1968) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist In Search of the Lost Chord is the album on which the Moody Blues discovered drugs and mysticism as a basis for songwriting and came up with a compelling psychedelic creation, filled with songs about Timothy Leary and the astral plane and other psychedelic-era concerns. They dumped the orchestra this time out in favor of Mike Pinder's Mellotron, ... see all copies from £4.36! new only from £10.51!
7	On the Threshold of a Dream (1969) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist On the Threshold of a Dream was the first album that the Moody Blues had a chance to record and prepare in a situation of relative calm, without juggling tour schedules and stealing time in the studio between gigs -- indeed, it was a product of what were almost ideal circumstances, though it might not have seemed that way to some observers. The ... see all copies from £4.91! new only from £9.06!
8	Time Traveller (1994) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist When the Moody Blues were due for the box set treatment, it would have been uncharacteristic for the production to be lacking in overstated grandiosity. On that count, this four-CD retrospective does not disappoint, including the bulk of their most famous work (from their 1967-1972 albums), lots from their later records and side projects, and a ... see all copies from £12.95! new only from £26.79!
9	To Our Children's Children's Children (1969) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist The 1997 remastering of this disc somewhat improves the sound on the band's most personal album, although the difference is less dramatic than on the other classic seven albums, and fans may miss the lyrics that were formerly included. Oddly enough, this was also the group's poorest-selling album of their psychedelic era, taking a lot longer to go ... see all copies from £5.43! new only from £8.44!
10	Seventh Sojourn (1972) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist Despite the presence of a pair of ballads -- one of them ("New Horizons") by Justin Hayward the latter's most romantic number since "Nights in White Satin" -- Seventh Sojourn was notable at the time of its release for showing the hardest-rocking sound this band had ever produced on record. It's all relative, of course, compared to their prior work ... see all copies from £3.76! new only from £10.51! \| first editions
11	Question of Balance (1970) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist The Moody Blues' first real attempt at a harder rock sound still has some psychedelic elements, but they're achieved with an overall leaner studio sound. The group was trying to take stock of itself at this time, and came up with some surprisingly strong, lean numbers (Michael Pinder's Mellotron is surprisingly restrained until the final number, ... see all copies from £3.12! new only from £8.44!
12	Greatest Hits (1989) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist All of the Moody Blues' best songs and biggest hits from the 1980s are collected on Greatest Hits; it's the most mainstream pop-oriented material the band has ever recorded. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from £6.70!
13	A Rock N' Roll Christmas (1995) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist PolyGram Special Markets' 1994 budget compilation A Rock 'N' Roll Christmas is a nice little find. Elton John's relentlessly joyful rocker "Step Into Christmas" is the standout because this album is the easiest to find and most inexpensive source. Old-fashioned rock & roll is represented by Bob Seger's (technically Bob Seger and the Last Heard) ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.11!
14	Long Distance Voyager (1981) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist Progressive rock bands stumbled into the '80s, some with the crutch of commercial concessions under one arm, which makes the Moody Blues' elegant entrance via Long Distance Voyager all the more impressive. Ironically enough, this was also the only album that the group ever got to record at their custom-designed Threshold Studio, given to them by ... see all copies from £4.20! new only from £4.36!
15	The Present (1983) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist ELO fans who found in Long Distance Voyager a new Discovery can be excused for thinking there's no Time like The Present. Just as ELO's follow-up to the sweeping Discovery seemed tame by comparison, so The Present failed to match the grandiose arrangements of the Moodies' previous record. It's still a solid effort, bolstered by strong songwriting ... see all copies from £3.74! new only from £6.64!
16	Every Good Boy Deserves Favour (1971) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist The best-realized of their classic albums, Every Good Boy Deserves Favour was also the last of the group's albums for almost a decade to be done under reasonably happy and satisfying circumstances -- for the last time with this lineup, they went into the studio with a reasonably full song bag and a lot of ambition and brought both as far as time ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £7.92!
17	Sur La Mer (1988) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist Though this 1988 recording starts out with a song that rightfully stands with their best work, the rest of the album doesn't live up to that high standard. "I Know You're out There Somewhere" (a thematic extension of the 1986 hit "Your Wildest Dreams") is lyrically and musically superior in all aspects; fine textured keyboards from Patrick Moraz ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.11!
18	Sounds of the Eighties (1999) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist see all copies from £5.07! new only from £5.07!
19	Keys of the Kingdom (1991) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist As much as The Moody Blues have earned the right to make a mediocre album, they shouldn't have been given the keys to the studio without a better batch of ideas than what ended up on Keys of the Kingdom. Like Sur La Mer three years earlier, many of the songs on here feel like prefabricated studio pop: programmed drum beats, sterile keyboards and ... see all copies from £3.11! new only from £5.46!
20	The Other Side of Life (1986) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist The Moody Blues' best album in several years benefitted mostly from the presence of the Top Ten single "Your Wildest Dreams," which managed to turn their status as dinosaurs from the '60s psychedelic era into a plus, with a great beat to boot and a very entertaining video featuring young British psychedelic rockers the Mood Six playing the young ... see all copies from £4.20!
21	Caught Live + 5 (1977) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist The Moody Blues released this live concert recording (augmented by some previously unissued studio cuts) after they'd decided to re-form at the end of the 1970s, in order to get some product out and test the waters for their reunion the following year. As their first new release in five years, it sold extremely well on both sides of the Atlantic ... see all copies from £5.44! new only from £6.64!
22	True Story (1996) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.11!
23	Voices in the Sky: The Best of the Moody Blues (1985) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist A good sampling of The Moody Blues' greatest hits from the 1960s and '70s; it's fine for those who only want the hits. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from £3.11! new only from £3.53!
24	Seventh Sojourn [Bonus Tracks] (1972) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist This SACD/CD hybrid disc of the final classic original album by the Moody Blues is notable for its remastered sound, but also for a brace of bonus tracks that almost double its length. The Super-Audio layer offers the original album's contents in multi-channel surround sound, in a mix based on producer Tony Clarke's early-'70s quadraphonic masters ... see all copies from £9.28! new only from £9.28!
25	A Night at Red Rocks with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra [2002] (1993) more music like this by The Moody Blues add to wishlist Having succeeded in the '80s by drawing on '60s nostalgia with a song ("Your Wildest Dreams") and video, the Moody Blues -- in the '90s -- began tailoring entire shows to recapture their '60s glory days -- and they succeeded. Performing on tour with a series of regional orchestras, they brought the majesty of their old studio sound onto the stage ... see all copies from £15.08! new only from £15.08!
