5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the extra money, March 10, 2001
By "pspa" (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
True, there are Moody Blues hits collections on one CD, but in my opinion this one is worth the extra cost, if for no other reason then it is the ONLY collection I am aware of that includes the great masterpiece Legend of a Mind, a tribute (of sorts) to Timothy Leary. Almost all the great hits are here too, plus the best of Justin Hayward's solo work. And what is there to say about the Moody Blues except that they are one of the five great rock and roll bands of all time, with an unparalleled ability to switch from rock to ballads to folk and back again, reflecting the depth and diversity of the members? The only quibble with this CD is that the great song For My Lady was inexplicably left off, but that is a minor complaint.

4.0 out of 5 stars The best anthology on this underrated band, July 22, 1999
By A Customer
First, let me clarify an inaccuracy from a reviewer entitled: "A music fan from the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago."

Contrary to what was stated, The Moody Blues Anthology does include "Legend of a Mind," and "Lovely to See You." It is true that it is missing "Dear Diary."

I, though felt it is a better collection than the Best of the Moody Blues released in 1997. The edit of "The Story in Your Eyes" was unnecessary. It is restored here to its full length version of 3:05.

A couple of omissions which give it 4 stars instead of 5: I would have liked the addition of the Denny Laine "From the Bottom of My Heart" Also , "For My Lady" is far more essential than "Lost in a Lost World."

Other than that, it is the best sounding, best compiled collection of Moody Blues tunes.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Band's Best Collection, October 31, 2003
This is a great compilation. Starting with the sixties tune "Go Now," when the group was in it's infancy, the CD just continues to go through the essential repertoire. The Moody's, along with The Beatles and Procol Harem, were an integral part of bringing rich, symphonic arrangements to Rock. This CD is a marvelous showcase of that phenomenon. They are also one of the best synthesizer groups ever, as well. Only ELP and Yes can compete in that category.

I highly endorse this CD. Excellent recorded sound, well thought out song selections. Forget "The Best of The Moody Blues." If you want to hear the best songs the band recorded, definitely spend your money on this one.

BEK
