Moody Blues: Step This Away…
Tom Hibbert, Q, April 1990
Two genial curators greet you in a small town record shop, ready to take you on a journey...from shiny suits and grimy clubs to "concept" albums, kaftans, fanmania and financial crisis. For they are those eternal symphonic mystics, The Moody Blues. "You live and learn," they warn Tom Hibbert.
