Yes, expectations were high at the news that Moraz had joined but they didn't give him enough rope.  There's some snide comments on here - I would rather listen to this that most of what passes for modern 'prog' pastiche...

Though there's a tiny bit of MB there (Justin's voice), it's too different and too poppy compared to the classic era. Not the same band.

It is to Moody Blues what Invisible Touch is to classic Genesis. Let's not kid ourselves. Just sticking the band name on the album doesn't make it the same.

It's a pretty decent album, but not as good as the ones before. I do like "Gemini Dream" quite a bit. It's quite catchy.

Not as good as the classic seven but I still enjoy it     
Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…
