Title: Amazing Concert, Superior Quality
Review: This is the ultimate follow-up to the band's enormously successful "A Night at Red Rocks" CD and video, recorded back in 1992. That was the Moodies first time to play with a symphony orchestra live. Now, eight years later, "Hall of Fame" revisits the band now that they've toured the world countless times with a different orchestra in every town. Naturally, the band seems much more at ease, and the concert flows smoothly. In addition to the inclusion of three great live tracks from "Strange Times", the standards are all crisper and better mixed than their Red Rocks counterparts. The only complaint I have is the editing that went on in the mixing booth. The Overture has been cut in half and Ray's flute solo from "Legend of a Mind" is reduced to about one bar, cutting off a full three minutes of the song. Still, 14 live tracks by the Moody Blues is worth a five star rating any day.
Is the review positive or negative?
