The Moodies nick Bessie Banks’ big break and cash in on the Merseybeat movement with a #1 UK hit.

The Moodies began as a British Invasion band, and this is the first act, featuring Denny Laine.

Originally conceived as a stereo demo record, the first “classical” rock album raised the bar even higher than The Beatles.

The second single from Days of Future Passed is another classic in the Moodies’ canon.

The advance single from the Moodies’ followup to Days was this lighter-than-air sunbeam of a song.

John Lodge takes a short ride up the charts with this spirited opener from the Moodies’ third.

The Moodies cross the threshold of greatness with their first #1 album, and their first to feature synthesizers.

The largely ignored single from the Moodies’ forthcoming fifth is still one of the prettiest things they’ve ever done.

Inspired by the lunar landing, the Moodies make an album about space travel that nearly reached the top of the charts.
