THIS IS THE MOODY BLUES

I never really though that I´d give a five star rating for a compilation, but this one is very special. Not only it covers the entire ´magnificent 7´ period of their career, but also it is very well done, with songs flowing one to the other seemslessly. Anyone who did the tracklisting did respect and understand quite well the band´s work. After reading the glowing reviews about this album I was curious enough to buy it, since I don´t own any of the originals and it would be too costly to get each one of them. As far as I remember here is their quintessencial work, not just the hits. Beautiful! And my CD remaster version comes with 18 (yes, 18!) extra tracks. So, a good work now tiurns to be an excellent one, since the bonus tracks includes such seminal songs that were left from the original track list, like Gypsy, Forever Autumn, Blue Guitar and many others. In the end you get an incredible 160 minute double CD of only their best material. Highly recommended!
