The Moody Blues on track (en Inglés) - Geoffrey Feakes

Formed in 1964 and still going strong, the Moody Blues are one of the most enduring bands in the history of rock. R&B, pop, psychedelic, symphonic, prog rock, folk-rock, synth-pop and

mainstream rock - they've experienced it all. 'Go Now', A number-one single in 1965, was very nearly a postscript for the band had it not been for the pioneering 1967 album Days Of

Future Passed. This set in motion a run of seven classic and hugely popular albums that put them at the forefront of symphonic rock in the early 1970s. A loyal fan base eagerly greeted subsequent recordings like Octave and Sur la mer and the band have sold 70 million albums worldwide. In 2018 the Moody Blues were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame,

and sell-out concerts continue worldwide to this day. This book examines each one of the band's studio albums and related recordings, as well as tracing the band's long and diverse history. Solo projects and live recordings are also discussed, making this the most comprehensive guide to the Moody Blues' music yet published. Whether the reader is a diehard fan or someone merely curious to see what lies beyond 'Nights in White Satin', this book is essential reading.
