Product description

The Moody Blues usher in the new year with their 1986 release, The Other Side Of Life, a captivating blend of progressive rock, symphonic rock, and art rock. This 41-minute masterpiece, released on Polydor, is a testament to the band's ability to craft intricate and immersive soundscapes.

From the opening notes of 'Your Wildest Dreams' to the closing strains of 'It May Be A Fire', The Moody Blues take listeners on a sonic journey that effortlessly weaves together elements of blues, baroque pop, and psychedelic rock. Tracks like 'Rock 'N' Roll Over You' and 'Slings And Arrows' showcase the band's knack for crafting infectious, guitar-driven melodies, while 'The Spirit' and 'The Other Side Of Life' demonstrate their penchant for atmospheric, synth-infused explorations.

With The Other Side Of Life, The Moody Blues cement their reputation as masters of their craft, delivering an album that is at once a nostalgic nod to their psychedelic roots and a bold step forward into the uncharted territories of 80s rock. As the band's distinctive soundscapes and introspective lyrics unfold, it becomes clear that this album is a must-listen for fans of progressive and symphonic rock. Released on 1 January 1986, The Other Side Of Life remains a compelling and enduring addition to The Moody Blues' illustrious discography.

This 2020 Limited Edition Reissue LP is pressed on Blue vinyl.

Perhaps not the greatest work by the Moody Blues, possibly because Pinder isn't there
Printing Error on LP

I've got a copy with a printing error: both sides marked as A, even though the record itself is fine. I'm not sure if other LPs from ТСГ have the same issue.
