After helping lay the groundwork for concept albums and progressive rock with 1967's orchestra-enhanced suite DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED, the Moodies retrenched for the follow-up. They abandoned the orchestra but kept their sound as rich as before by playing a multitude of instruments themselves, including everything from sitar to cello to oboe. At the time, it was remarkable enough for these instruments to appear on a rock record, much less to be played by the band itself. The string-laden conceptual pieces of DAYS were replaced by shorter, more concise songs that leaned more toward Beatlesque pop and displayed a pronounced Eastern influence. Graham Edge's short spoken-word pieces provide a properly arty framework for the Moodies' blend of swooping mellotron, haunting flute, and rich, multi-tracked harmonies. The slightly Hollies-ish "Ride my Seesaw," one of the band's strongest rockers, is a highlight. Flutist/vocalist Ray Thomas provides the quirky Britishness so essential to '60s UK pop-rock with his music-hall-on-acid number "Dr. Livingstone I Presume." The soaring harmonies of "Legend of a Mind" work in praise of Timothy Leary and his "trips to astral planes." IN SEARCH OF THE LOST CHORD is the most exotic, trippy album in the Moodies' catalog.

最新mixですが、Visions of Paradiseはモノラル。Voices in the Skyは冒頭のフルートの音割れが直されている。The Actorはイントロがフルサイズ。Gimmie a Little Somethingは、バスドラムを追加している。A Simple Game は、Mikeのボーカル版を収録すべき。Tonyガプロデュースした1968年オリジナルミックスを超えていない。

メロトロンという楽器をこのバンドではじめて知りました。オーケストレーションも絶妙ですが、彼らにしては平均点な一枚。

ジャケットは少々おっかないものの、内容は他愛ないというか初々しい英国ポップ。ヘイワードの甘い美声を活かした名曲のいくつかを収録。聴いているとなんだかほんとうに印度のお日様ポッカポカ......。これぞlate60'sノスタルジー。
