A fantastic band !
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

The Moodies were one of the first 'Prog' bands I got into during the mid 80's. More than 25 years later, still enjoying their Big Seven albums. Never tire from their wonderful tunes. Voted 'fantastic band'. I can live without the later things, though I do like 'The Present' a lot.

Having a big 7 albums at such an early stage in psych and prog puts them in the category of one of the best bands of all time IMO;  even if I didn't much like "On the threshold of  Dream", it' still a big 7 to me, with the last few being equally strong.  After that early flourish, nothing measured up, but they still had a number of fine tracks later on

I voted for 'good band'. But there was not enough choices. I couldn't call them a fantastic band and good band does not give them enough credit. 'Pretty darn good band' would have been the best choice.

I never got into them. Not my cup of tea I suppose. Not progressive enough for me. LOL
