Great CD, worth every penny - By: Kurt A. Johnson, 24 Sep 2003 
[One CD, with a running time of 78:22] This collection of Moody Blues hits would better be callled, "The Moody Blues Through The Years." The songs run from their early Go Now (1964), through I Know You're Out There Somewhere (1988). Along the way, we get the touching Isn't Life Strange, the haunting Forever Autumn, the radiant The Voice, & many other great songs.
My one & only complaint is that Nights In White Satin is included without Graeme Edge's spellbinding poem Late Lament. I have always found that poem to be a fantastic epilogue to the song. But that's such a minor complaint. This is a great CD, & well worth the money.
By the way, the sleeve includes a one or two-sentence story of each song, & a conversation between John Reed & Justin Hayward, which tells the story of the band. Nice bonus!
Just the essentials - By: P D Harris, 27 Mar 2003 This compilation includes alll the essential Moody blues tracks from their first UK sixties hit (Go now) to the eighties (I know you’re out the somewhere), plus Blue guitar & Forever autumn, two hits that Justin Hayward had without the Moody blues.
Among the classics here are Nights in white satin, Ride my see-saw, Voices in the sky, Question, Story in your eyes & Isn’t life strange.
Such is the legacy of the Moody blues that there is only room for the essentials on a single CD. I bought the double CD, singles+, instead. It contains alll the tracks here & much else besides. Before you decide to buy this, I suggest you check that collection, which I’ve already reviewed.
Reviewing the Moody Blues album of the greatest works. - By: , 21 Sep 2000 
In this album, the producers have collected some of the Moody Blues greatest works, ranging from the soft, smooth lyrics of " Nights In White Satin " to the fast-beat, rock 'n' roll hit of " I'm Just A Singer ". Other good songs to listen to are the ones which are solos by either Justin Hayward or John Lodge, such as " Voices In The Sky ". The two of them sing many songs together as well as solos such as the famous " Isn't Life Strange " to the meaningful & sorrowful " Forever Autumn. " I would recommend this album to anyone who wants a review of the Moody Blues greatest works or just want to listen for pure enjoyment.
