Ah, the Moodies. Anytime you want to mellow out. Their fifth album and they haven't faltered yet. Always love how
the writing and vocal chores are handed out by these guys. Makes their albums never suffer from tracks sounding the
same. From the deep baritone of Ray Thomas to the smooth melodies of Hayward and Lodge. A lot of orchestration and
overdubbing here making the album hard to tour behind. Only one single of Watching And Waiting which was a flop,
but the Moodies were never a singles band. The album performed well, with a #2 in the homeland and a #14 in the
states, yet it is one of their lowest selling albums. This was the first release on the groups own Threshold label
after a fallout with Decca. This group has always been one of my favorites of that 60's era, when my head was in a
cloud, but my mind was surrounded by the sounds that were clear.

I LOVE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Eyes Of A Child, Part 2

Best Track - Candle Of Life

Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life

Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life

So love everybody
And make them your friend
So love everybody
And make them your friend

Something you can't hide
Says you're lonely
Hidden deep inside
Of you only
It's there for you to see
Take a look and be
Burn slowly the candle of life

Something there outside
Says we're only
In the hands of time
Falling slowly
It's there for us to know
With love that we can go
Burn slowly the candle of life

These guys are just strange. At least based on this album, the only one I have. Glam rock I guess. Aussie blokes
formed the group in the early 70's and this is their second album. The first spent 16 weeks at #1 in the homeland.
This one wasn't far behind, at 11 weeks at the top. Must come from walking around upside down all the time. The
album never charted here. Toured with AC/DC and Split Enz while promoting their first album. A #1 single from this
one with the title track and a #5 with All My Friends Are Getting Married, which is my favorite. I can handle both
of those along with two others but the rest are rubbish to me. On my american release there are two tracks
different from the original Australian release. Not sure what was behind that, but those were replace by two tracks
from their first album. The group split in 1980 after five albums, and have been inducted into the ARIA Hall Of
Fame. Guess I was out of touch on these guys, as they were certainly popular down under.

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Love On The Radio

Best Track - All My Friends Are Getting Married

Well all my friends are getting married
Yes they're all growin' old
They're all staying home on weekends
They're all doin' what they're told

Well I looked into the crowd the other night
And I saw an old familiar face
He said "How are you doin' Shirl my boy?"
He said " Tell me, are you playin' the same old place?"
I asked him all about himself
And he said that he was married with a kid
Showed me a picture of his wife
And we talked about all those things we did

Well all my friends are getting married
Yes they're all growin' old
They're all staying home on weekends
They're all doin' what they're told

Well sometimes I feel like I'm left behind
And sometimes I feel like I've just left school
Wonder if I'll ever grow up
Maybe I'm the only fool

Well all my friends are getting married
Yes they're all growin' old
They're all staying home on weekends
They're all doin' what they're told

But I'm all caught up with this magic
Yes I'm all caught up with this fun
I'm all caught up with this music
Well maybe I'll never have a son
Well maybe I'll never have a son

Well all my friends are getting married (Oh, the time has come)
Yes they're all growin' old (Yes, they're all growin' old)
They're all staying home on weekends (I just want to be here, on my own)
They're all doin' what they're told (Oh yes, they're growin' old)
They're all doin' what they're told (Yes they won't, settle down)
They're all doin' what they're told (But I don't wanna be, pushed around)

What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 24-04-2012

very very strange band MH but at least your best track is their best track!!!!!

they reformed in the late 80's and released one album, had a #1 hit here with "jukebox in siberia"....

the majority of the band ended up as members of studio bands on TV here, the singer Shirley Strachan went back to carpentry and hosted one of those reality home improvement shows before he dies in a light plane crash in the 1990s

Not up there with them classic earlier albums, but this sixth release passes. They started to lose me after this one. I guess I was a James Dewar fan as much as a Robin Trower fan. Three love tracks with My Love, It's For You, and King Of The Dance taking the top. Two bombs, Birthday Boy and the instrumental title track taking the worst. This album seems to have more of a funk feel than previously. Nothing wrong with that, just a change. Robin was probably tiring of the Hendrix shadow he was tagged with. A #37 is the best the album could do, with no singles charting. Two albums later the band was dropped by their long time label, Chrysalis. A good album, but it makes you yearn for Bridge Of Sighs.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

Worst Track - Caravan To Midnight

Best Track - King Of The Dance

I was raised in the ghetto
And the floor was my bed
The rhythm of the streets
Was my daily bread
It's a restless situation
And each day's a game of chance
'Cause when you dance in the streets
For a nickel or a dime
You learn how to move, babe
You learn how to shine
And if you shine like a star
They'll call you king of the dance
So come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance
I'm gonna dance for the world
I ain't never gonna stop
It's a long way down
When you're looking from the top
And if you shine like a star
They'll call you king of the dance
So come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, baby
Be the king of the dance
Come on, come on, get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, yeah
Be the king of the dance, yeah
I was raised in the ghetto
And the floor was my bed
The rhythm of the streets
Was my daily bread
It's a restless situation
Every day's a game of chance
Come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, yes
Be the king of the dance
Yeah come on, come on, get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance, yes, yes
Come on, come on now get up on the floor
Come on, come on and dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance

And the floor was my bed
The rhythm of the streets
Was my daily bread
It's a restless situation
And each day's a game of chance
'Cause when you dance in the streets
For a nickel or a dime
You learn how to move, babe
You learn how to shine
And if you shine like a star
They'll call you king of the dance
So come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance
I'm gonna dance for the world
I ain't never gonna stop
It's a long way down
When you're looking from the top
And if you shine like a star
They'll call you king of the dance
So come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, baby
Be the king of the dance
Come on, come on, get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, yeah
Be the king of the dance, yeah
I was raised in the ghetto
And the floor was my bed
The rhythm of the streets
Was my daily bread
It's a restless situation
Every day's a game of chance
Come on, come on get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance, yes
Be the king of the dance
Yeah come on, come on, get up on the floor
Come on, come on dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance, yes, yes
Come on, come on now get up on the floor
Come on, come on and dance me some more
Come on take a chance
Be the king of the dance

so many albums, so little time
I will have to check this album out , I need to get more Robin Trower as i have only got victims of the fury (1980) which is a great blues rock album.
