MFSL moody blues: are they all so good?

I just picked up a MFSL copy of Days of Future Past and was astonished at how much better it sounded than my original deram copy from the late sixties. Are all the MFSL editions of the other 6 classic albums as good i.e. so much better than the original (US) pressings?? If so i had better start saving since they are very expensive on the used market

Macdad-I am waiting also for the Pretenders, (and a few others). Ever since the Silver Series was announced, they have pushed those out pretty quickly, but the regular series has taken a back seat. I am NOT complaining, the Silver Series has been marvelous so far and I have them all.

The MFSL Days of future past is exceptional and one of the best they ever released. Other releases were good but not up to that standard.

Really. This is interesting. I find myself preferring the Derams, but I'm not dis'ing the MOFIs and they still have a place on my shelf.

BTW, my wife and I saw the current version of the Moodys last week as they started a tour of Canada in New Hampshire and Maine. Still worth seeing but I couldn't help feeling they don't have many years left.

After Mike Pinder left, the Moodies were not the Moodies any longer.

His keyboards were the focal point and the glue binding their music, at least for me.

And yes, I own every album (or cd) after "Octave".
