I only own:
"in search of the lost chord" (vinyl)
"on the threshold of a dream" (vinyl)
"to our childrens children children" (cd)
"long distance voyage" (vinyl/cd)
"the present" (vinyl)
my favourite album of theirs is Long Distance Voyager, do you like that one bob_32?
I was not so fond of The Present though. With Long Distance Voyager I thought they did a good job of sounding fresh while still maintaining their trademark atmospheric, almost grandiose, style that I liked so much. On The Present however there seemed little of the old magic. I remember listening to it track by track and waiting for a song that actually sounded like the Moodies as I remembered them, and it was not until track 8 or so that I heard one.
