I've always been aware of the Moody Blues but never really listened to any of their albums. A few years ago a friend introduced me to the original DOFP, I was impressed. My only issue was I thought the orchestrations sounded amazing and timeless, then I thought that the songs just sounded dated and it just didn't gel for me. Of course, they were recorded in 1967 and were in-keeping back then. When I saw that John Lodge had remade the album I thought I'd give it a try. I think this updated version of the album works better for today and I think it will introduce new fans.
