Recommend Me Some Moody Blues....

Sign in to disble this ad
So I've heard a few Moody Blues songs for the first time, and I'm wondering, what would be a good "top 3 album list" to be on the lookout for?

Any of their 7 albums from 1967 to 1972 would be a good choice. They are:

Days Of Future Past
In Search Of The Lost Chord
On The Threshold Of A Dream
To Our Childrens Childrens Children (my personal favorite!)
A Question Of Balance
Every Good Boy Deserves Favour
Seventh Sojourn

Their work after this period was also good, but this IMO was their most fertile period.

thanks man. I've heard of a few of those, but never given them a listen. Now I know where to start, huh?

All of these would be my recommendations as well. Especially Days Of Future Past. I've had it on vinyl since I was a kid, I can't stress it's awesomeness enough.
