What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Ah, the Moodies. Anytime you want to mellow out. Their fifth album and they haven't faltered yet. Always love how
the writing and vocal chores are handed out by these guys. Makes their albums never suffer from tracks sounding the
same. From the deep baritone of Ray Thomas to the smooth melodies of Hayward and Lodge. A lot of orchestration and
overdubbing here making the album hard to tour behind. Only one single of Watching And Waiting which was a flop,
but the Moodies were never a singles band. The album performed well, with a #2 in the homeland and a #14 in the
states, yet it is one of their lowest selling albums. This was the first release on the groups own Threshold label
after a fallout with Decca. This group has always been one of my favorites of that 60's era, when my head was in a
cloud, but my mind was surrounded by the sounds that were clear.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Eyes Of A Child, Part 2

Best Track - Candle Of Life

Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life

Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life

So love everybody
And make them your friend
So love everybody
And make them your friend

Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life

Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life
