4 stars I am a huge Moody Blues fan . Days Of Future Passed is still one of my favorite albums of all time . Today I will review their fourth album

On The Threshold Of A Dream

We start the album with In The Beginning , which is a nice haunting beginning for an album like this .

The second track Lovely To See You , is a nice , fun , melodic Pop Rock song . There is nothing really Progressive about this song but its still really pleasant and enjoyable .

The third track Dear Diary , is probably one of my favorite songs on the album . With a nice catchy riff , that goes on through the whole song.

The fourth track Send Me No Wine , is a nice catchy number . For me this song sound like what would happen if Credence Clearwater Revival were English .

The fifth track To Share Our Love , is a another fun melodic song , which dose not heart to be on this album . I also could see this song being played in a movie , where the two main characters are running away from criminals who are trying to chase them down .

The sixth track Deep Within You , is a song that remind me of Jethro Tull . Even though this song is good , I personally believe this is one of the weaker tracks .

The Seventh track Never Comes The Day , is my least favorite song on the album . But that dose not mean its a bad song ,that's just my opinion .

The eighth track Lazy Day , is a one of the best songs on this album ( in my opinion ) . The lyrics are fun and quotable , the song is really melodic , and is just perfect . I could see this song being used as an intro to a Comedy film , with the main character for example waking up and doing his morning routine .

The ninth track Are You Sitting Comfortably ? Is a beautiful song , with a nice clean sound .

The tenth track The Dream , is an intro to the last remaining tracks Have You Heard ? ( part one ) , The Voyager , and Have You Heard ( part two ) .

The eleventh track Have You Heard ? ( part one ) , is a great ( but short ) song , which should be be listened together with the other two tracks .

The twelfth track The Voyager , is a fantastic piece of music .

The thirteenth track Have You Heard ? ( part two ) is a great closing song to this fantastic album .

So this is my review of On The Threshold Of A Dream by The Moody Blues .

Thanks for reading my review !
