Review - :
{^Seventh Sojourn} contains {$the Moody Blues}' hardest-rocking body of songs, and shows the sudden emergence of {$John Lodge}, who had never been a writing mainstay of the band before, as a major songwriter with {&"Isn't Life Strange"} and {&"I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band)"} (which reflected some of the strain of the group members), both of which became hits. {$Lodge} and {$Graeme Edge}'s driving rhythm section comes through, as does the improved keyboard device called the Chamberlain, which supplanted the Mellotron here with a much stronger sound (especially on-stage). {$Justin Hayward}'s {&"New Horizons"} was the most romantic number since {&"Nights in White Satin."} [The 2007 SACD edition included two bonus tracks and the entire album, remastered and presented in both stereo and 5.1 Surround.] ~ Bruce Eder, All Music Guide
