Barclay James Harvest have always been slagged off in the british press as "The Poor Man's Moody Blues" - They even recorded a track called this on one of their albums - but they are a good band for all of that.

If you want to get a good feel for their material I would suggest their 1974 album "BJH Live". It has some great tracks on it. Mockingbird, Summer Soldier, Medicine Man and Galadriel for example.

I'd be interested to know what you think.
