Disc 2 is as good as it gets!
, April 30, 2001Reviewer: chuckaconner_2001 - See all chuckaconner_2001's reviewsI have always admitted to being a fan but, somewhere in my aging process I lost my M-Blues roots. Although I have 2 other compilations and several albums and a DVD by the guys, this one reintroduced me to some dynamics I let slip through, obviously. Where was I when "Long Distance Voyager" was released? I heard the cut "Talking out of Turn" for the first time when I bought this CD, and it moved me like most of the cuts did from their great albums (like Days of Future.., On a Threshold..., Seventh Sojourn, etc). It is amazing that their work is still so fresh, particularly when you take 20 years off from them! If you are even a remote old-time fan of the Moody Blues or know someone who is, buy this CD and listen to Disc 2 (and play Track 7 until it wears out!). ... -
Moody Blues Anthology
, March 29, 2001Reviewer: insp71 - See all insp71's reviewsExtraordinary... All the greatest hits, of course, but a host of lesser known pieces that solidify the group as incredible artists... All of them. Hayward, Lodge, Edge and Thomas being the mainstays. Mike Pinder, the forgotten "Blue" makes an impressive showing. Gotta Have It...

Pro Reviews: Anthology
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews One of a burgeoning array of Moody Blues compilations, Anthology was well-intentioned and marked the first attempt to assemble the group's hits and most popular tracks going back to the original lineup in 1964 and "Go Now" (which wasn't even included in the group's four-CD box set), up as far as the mid-'90s. The sound is a match for the remasterings on the individual CDs that Polydor brought out in the late '90s, and most of the important bases in their psychedelic and post-psychedelic history are covered. Those buying this set will be assured of hearing 99 percent of the Moody Blues' tracks ever heard on the radio, but there is still a flaw in the programming. It was nice of the makers, and even unexpectedly ambitious and generous of them to reach back to "Go Now," but they should also have taken the trouble to include the original group's second biggest hit, "From the Bottom of My Heart," which was a Top 40 single in England. Unlike "Go Now," "From the Bottom of My Heart" was an original by Mike Pinder and Denny Laine, and was one of the greatest singles of the entire British Invasion. That would have plugged a serious hole in the group's best-of discographies, would likely have amazed fans of the better-known "Mark II" group (Justin Hayward et al.), and made the jump from the original band's RB sound to the later group's psychedelia a little easier to understand. - Bruce Eder, All Music Guide |
