I think Days Of Future Past was their best album by far;Tuesday Afternoon and Twilight Time are wonderful tracks that seem to conjure up the dreamy afternoons of childhood. The blending of orchestra and rock band is handled very well too.
What a pity that the Moodies put those rather laughable spoken-word bits on their albums, though; I think they singlehandedly ensured that Progressive Rock would forever carry the "pretentious" label, with which it is so often branded.
