Justin Hayward13 The Voice14 Gemini Dream15 Blue World16 your Wildest Dreams17 I Know You're Out There Somewhere This collection featuring hits from all phases of the Moody's career contains 17 newly digitally remastered classics; 78 minutes of brilliant rock 'n' roll - from '64s "Go Now" (never before available on any Moody Blues compilation) through '88s "I Know You're Out There Somewhere." Other highlights: "Nights in White Satin," "Tuesday Afternoon," "Ride My See-Saw," "Question," "Story in Your Eyes," "Your Wildest Dreams" and more. Elegantly packaged; booklet contains vintage photos and a conversation with Justin Hayward. --- This single-CD compilation doesn't do too much more than scratch the surface of the band's sound at its most popular points, but it does do one thing that no prior Moody Blues compilation ever did -- it includes "Go Now," which, as the notes point out, is still the group's top-charting single in England. What it doesn't do is get "Go Now" in really good sound (no one seems to have a proper master source) or include their even better follow-up single, "From the Bottom of My Heart." Still, this body of work is pleasing and, thanks to its extension back to the original lineup, even a little bit informative, and it was the first Moody Blues compilation to be mastered in 20-bit audio. The dominant personality is Justin Hayward, who has provided the band with most of its hits, followed somewhat distantly by John Lodge, whose songs began to shine as the '70s dawned -- a pair of Hayward/Lodge songs and one solo Hayward release fill out the 17 tracks, which showcase the soulful, the mystical, and the psychedelic aspects of their music in equal parts. It's a good intro to their history, and anyone who wants more can jump to the Time Traveller box. ~ Bruce Eder, AllMusic Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
