I did the Moody Blues discography and while I thought they were tapering off for the last two albums of the “classic seven,” I felt they were actually good at treading water between 1978 and 1986. And I really have added “Steppin’ In A Slide Zone,” “Under My Feet” and “Talking Out Of Turn” to my rotations, among others. I do agree that Sur La Mer was about as bad as most people said it was, and I got NOTHING out of their 1999 reunion album (pretty much everyone else was nicer to it than I was!)

The Who - They’ve had so many retirements now that I don’t even pay attention to them. It’s like waiting for the Great Pumpkin or something.

Uh yes I was wondering what you thought of my points on those things you mentioned uhm yes!
