The Moody Blues are one of a dozen or so bands from the 1970s and before that released a great album in 1986, 1987, or 1988 — most of them were 1987, but there were a couple outliers. The first one of these I was introduced to was A Momentary Lapse of Reason by Pink Floyd. My father owned two Pink Floyd records: that, and, of course, The Dark Side of the Moon. (My mother had all the old ones, but not Reason.) Grateful Dead was fairly unique here in that they did not have a #1 hit until their 1987 album In the Dark and previously featured song of the day, Touch of Grey. Fleetwood Mac released one of the greatest rock albums of all time, Rumours, in 1978, but they also had a big album in the late 80s. Of course, I've covered all that before. It's worth mentioning again.

I was raised on The Moody Blues and other western rock bands from the 1960s and 1970s, along with some stuff from the 1950s, and I do share a favourite Moody Blues record with my mother, In Search of the Lost Chord. Most people know The Moody Blues for Nights in White Satin and Ride My See-Saw, which are both good songs, but my actual favourite song by them is OM, the final track off Lost Chord. It's not very radio friendly, but it's... interesting. What I didn't realise was that the spoken part was actually another track. I thought it was part of the same thing. So there isn't an official stream with both the spoken part (The Word) as well as the song (OM). It's not capitalised on YouTube (shown as "Om"), but I remember it being capitalised on the record, so that is how I write it. Maybe all the titles were just in all caps? I don't recall. I write it how I write it. Anyway, that's peak Moody Blues to me, but, it's not a very good entry point.

Almost sounds like a different band.
