ABOUT THE RECORD Music writers cite Days of Future Passed as a precursor to progressive rock music. It is the first concept album by The Moody Blues, an orchestral song cycle about a typical working day. The singles Nights in White Satin and Tuesday Afternoon were Top 40 hits in the US. What surprises first-time listeners -- and delighted them at the time -- is the degree to which the group shares the spotlight with the London Festival Orchestra without compromising their sound or getting lost in the lush mix of sounds. That's mostly because they came to this album with the strongest, most cohesive body of songs in their history, having spent the previous year working up a new stage act and a new body of material (and working the bugs out of it on-stage), the best of which ended up here.
