THE MOODY BLUES "icon" cd,2011.
another of Dani's cds here,
listened to on saturday whilst driving for a night away from suburbia for a semi rural motel...
double compilation set featuring all the well known Moodies tracks, interesting to note that this is the thirteenth compilation set they have released...and they only released something like fourteen studio albums...how the hell does that work, maybe they have the same people in charge as those who keep on doing the same with Elvis best of sets LOL!
all up twenty-three tracks on here, surprised that there were four i didnt like, not even sure why i didnt like them with just over half that i really love, i just love the harmonies these guys have, totally makes these songs work IMO.
both of us also noted that Gemini Dream has a distinct ELO feel about it.
both of us also agree that Nights In White Satin still rules supreme as their penultimate track,even amongst these other gems.
shame about the four tracks i dont like,otherwise this would have got a love score....
