I'd call Barclay James Harvest "great", but I have another adjective that I reserve for King Crimson.

BJH are a strange one for me, "Once Again" would be in my top 5 prog albums but the others I've listened to vary from "ok" to "meh" and I can't really explain why. I do go back to them from time to time and will continue to try, so I've gone "other".

BJH is one of the few bands whose live albums I prefer over their studio albums, especially their 1974 Live, but also Berlin... Hesitated between the 2nd and 3rd option but since at least two miscast their votes I'll go for option 2.

I agree. I prefer their live albums too and two of my favourites are Glasnost and The Ultimate Anthology.

An interviewer called them the poor man's Moody Blues in an interview with John Lees. He then wrote a song with that title and put it on the Gone to Earth album. Very much like Nights in White Satin, deliberately. Let none say he has no sense of humor.

I have most of their albums and they are all good to very good, but their live albums are all excellent (especially the 1974 one which is one of the best live albums of all time).

Agree on the live albums (they were always a great live act) but Live Tapes is my favorite of the live albums.

very neat, and that's a really good song, one of two collaborations between Holroyd and Pritchard on that album, both of which are very good

Barclay James Harvest are much more than just a Poor Man's Moody Blues.
