Sophisticated Pop Rock.......2007-02-11
I had this album in high school and always felt like it was a secret treasure.
I don't know anyone else that owned this lush sophisticated Pop /Rock album that was Moody Blues in texture but not flavor. Very good mellow mood tunes. My favorite remains "Bareback Rider" it has never been out of my head for over 30 years. I am very glad to be able to own this on CD!

Great album.......2005-08-27
This is a really great album. This is the only 'Moodies solo' I have 'cause they're hard finds their solo albums. Pity 'Paradise Ballroom' is not listed here. If I find a copy you wont be able to read my review :-( !!
As for this album, Adrian Gurvitz, the lead singer and main songwriter, has a voice that might not sound out of place in 'The Band', kind of throaty and Southern. The music has an Americana flavour, reflected in songs like 'Shotgun' and the gospel flavoured 'Gew Janna Woman'. But Graeme Edge IS there and the album also has a strong psychedelic flavour. There is also a fair bit of instrumental music that's very, very good. There's some pretty good guitar tones.
Highlights to me were the first four songs (side one of the vinyl record), The Tunnel and Shotgun. The only song I didn't like was the last song because it's really depressing and has a sense of 'no hope' but the others are very good songs indeed. Pity it's hard to get, because it's an album of high quality.
For those who feel blue and moody.......2005-04-28
This is quite a fine album, released at a time when ace guitarist/songwriter/vocalist Adrian Gurvitz had reached his peak. It bursts with intensity and features much musical variety. From "Bareback Rider" to "Something We'd Like to Say" (written by Graeme Edge) each song makes a strong, punchy point. "The Tunnel" is a typically intense Gurvitz instrumental (see the instrumentals on the first Three Man Army album). Graeme's songs hold their own with Adrian's, an encouraging sign. "Shotgun on the 4.42" is an instantly memorable western saga, with some stunning unison work on acoustic and electric guitars.
Contrary to what some say, "Paradise Ballroom", the followup to "Muddy," is quite a worthy album. There's some disco, but it's pretty palatable. "Human" is a fine ballad and "Caroline," the closer, is an all-out finale of the kind Adrian did so well. "Ballroom" proved to be his last truly memorable album.
Beware Imitations.......2005-03-04
There are numerous bootleg CDs with this title, as well as Paradise Ballroom. They are often called "European CDs", or "Limited Edition". They all seem to come from the Russian Federation, or former East Bloc countries.
They are all recorded to CDR from vinyl LP record, and are NOT official label releases. Paradise Ballroom was never officially released on CD, yet you can buy a CD of it off Ebay.
If you don't mind the scratches, surface noise, and turntable rumble, go for it. If you are looking for the real Polygram release, you will have much searching to do. KOYMB is a very rare CD.
I would ask any seller in advance what "label" it is on, it would have to be Polygram B000008FBD, not "COE Records" or other bootlegs.
The album itself is pretty good for its time period. I was a teenager in 1976, and it was one of my favorites. Adrian Gurvitz is a great guitar player. You can hear his Baker Gurvitz Army roots throughout.
If you are new to GEB, you will probably think the music is dated and seventy-ish, but for me it evokes another time altogether, a simpler one perhaps (when your a teenager).
Paradise Ballroom was a disapointment, despite the tantalizing album cover. It's disco influence put me off, but I thought "Human" was a pretty song.
I just wish the CD could be released again, and flush away all these bogus CDRs that are everywhere now.
Forget the music off the LP and the CD.......2003-07-26
The LP cover of this album has got to be one of the glossiest lushest gushiest colorful pieces of artwork I have ever seen on an LP (forget about the CD, the art work is so small, it is almost non-existent) Done by an artist called Petagno, it is quite an intriguing piece of work for an LP. The music is so-so tolerable with a few whispy brilliant moments but too few and far between. I've got this one framed as wall art.
