Do you believe this belief? blog.beliefnet.com/bibleandculture/2010/01/rock-n-roll-quiz---the-analysis-of-the-third-ten.html Monday January 25, 2010 "Most of you picked Yes over the Moody Blues, I am guessing largely for their 2nd and 3rd lps. Both of these bands indulged in symphonic rock, but Yes, early and late had a harder rock edge. The Moody Blues however were major innovators. They were the first to record a whole album with a major orchestra (Days of Future Passed), they were the first to use that pre-synthesizer/organ thing called the mellotron, and they were practically the inventors of the concept album--- and they had some fabulous ones. My personal favorite was Question of Balance, but they had many more good ones. They were also remarkable in that they had four lead singers, until Pinder retired, and they used lots of flute long before Jethro Tull got going on flute rock".
