Reviews Customer Reviews for To Our Children S Children S Children Not as great as Days of Future but good Rating: Like another reviewer said, there's a lot of fluffy nonsense on the first side that just spoils the album. I don't know how anyone can rate Higher and higher highly; it's not a proper song and it sounds quite too corny. Floating is another song which sounds like something on a children's soundtrack. Beyond never goes anywhere. I never thought is a great song, but at one minute length it's hard to enjoy it.
Eyes of a child and Out and in are the only songs I personally can listen to by this point. Sun is still shining sounds like ridiculous hippy nonsense and comes at the end of three great songs to spoil the mood.
That leaves us with four undeniable classics: Candle of life, Gypsy, Eternity Road and Watching and waiting. They're all among Moody's best songs ever. I just wish I could enjoy the album as a whole without all the filler. I still give it four stars, although I can't understand anyone calling this their best.
Customer Reviews for To Our Children S Children S Children Cd Hope The Children Will Enjoy!! Rating: Another great band from when bands were at their best, the 60s & 70s produced the Very BEST!!! The Band: MOODY BLUES produced the best listening music. You could be laying around your place drinking your wine and just listening or even without the wine, it was a pleasure to listen to.
Editorial Reviews for To Our Children S Children S Children Audio Cd Amazon.com Recorded in 1969 and released in 1970, this Moody Blues album captures the band in all of their glorious excess. With intellectualized lyrics, overblown arrangements, and rampant experimentation, the Moody Blues still manage to create an evocative, psychedelic musical experience. The recurring "Eyes Of A Child" is a tender ballad with glorious vocal harmonies. All of the moody men provide compositions; between the five of them and a variety of instruments, they emulate a much larger ensemble. Mellotrons meld with electric guitars and various woodwinds for a grandiose, orchestral-rock approach. Very English sounding and very ambitious, this record catches the band just before they collapsed under their own weight. A representative period piece, there are several worthwhile moments here amidst all the grandeur. --Mitch Myers
