HIGHLY CLEAN MONO 1966 FIRST PRESS with UNBOXED MAROON labels  

***The RARE MONO '66 LP offers different song mixes from the stereo issue as well as a full dynamic puchy production that differs from stereo...

Original 1966 first pressing of the very first MOODY BLUES...completely different to their symphonic progressive records -- this was when they were rising stars in the UK Mersey/Beatrock Invasion...including their smash hit "GO NOW" ...released simultaneously, sort of, in the U.K. as THE MAGNIFICENT MOODIES) before the Hayward/Lodge contingent stepped in, and a starkly different British Invasion that would be forever lost upon the conception of DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED.

The pre-psychedelic Moody Blues were represented in England by this album, which is steeped in American R&B come 'beat rock' (Englands garage term). The strong covers include songs by James Brown and Willie Dixon, plus the timeless international smash "Go Now" ... interspersed with a brace of originals by lead singer/guitarist Denny Laine and keyboardist Mike Pinder, and one Jeff Barry number, "I've Got a Dream." The shouters, like "I'll Go Crazy" and "Bye Bye Bird," will be the big surprises, showcasing the rawest sound by the group, but "I've Got a Dream" shows a lyrical, harmony-based sound, while "It Ain't Necessarily So" offers them doing a smooth, shakin' number with incredibly catchy hooks -- and the atmospheric "From The Bottom Of My Heart", which fades the album out on Laine exorcising some musical demons in a way which makes you wish he'd stuck around through the band's upcoming weird period. The group's sound is good and loud, and Laine is a phenomenal singer, though the band lacked the charisma and built-in excitement of such rivals as the Rolling Stones and the Animals.

Ironically and unfortunately, 2 of the 4 tracks above didn't appear on the original U.K. release "Magnificent Moodies." In other words: Buy American.

You'll never hear the MOODY BLUES like this before -- in their raw shakin' beatrocker beginnings!!
