Review title: Only for diehard MB fans
Product review: For the most part, John's Moody Blues songs work best with the full harmonies of the group to the fore ("Ride My See-Saw", "I'm Just a Singer", etc.). His rather thin, high voice is not strong enough to carry an entire album and gets really annoying after awhile. And the overdubbed orchestration tends to be quite overbearing (although not nearly as bad as on Ray Thomas' albums). However, this CD does contain one real classic in the powerful ballad "Say You Love Me", worth the price for hardcore fans, even if John kept rewriting it endlessly on subsequent Moodies releases ("Survival", "Nervous", "It May be a Fire", etc.)Another problem with the new CD release is that it doesn't have the wonderfully surrealistic cover art and beautiful photography of the lyric sheet from the original LP, provided by Roger Dean of Yes fame. Overall review: only for the fan who has throughly explored the Moodies discography.
