I quite liked the Moody Blues, but then again I was always an old softie at heart:-) Dare I mention the ultimate prog rock of Yes? I though Messers Hayward and Lodge did a fair job on some of the concept albums and were pretty misrepresented with the singles released from the albums. Worst of all being 'Knights in white satin' from Days of Future Past which I felt was, on the whole, a fair old attempt at bringing a bit of theatre into rock. Pretentious as that was...:-) Anyhow - That was 60's, not 70's so what am I on about?

Has anyone mentioned some of the Sweets heavier stuff? If you look at the singles it is pure bubble gum glam but some of the album stuff was decidedly raunchy. Not a forgotten band but certainlt a forgoten aspect of a band. Bringing us full circle to the Moody Blues:-)

Cheers
