    The Moody Blues already composed a track concerning the history of music in 1971, coming in at under 5 minutes and called Procession. There was some humour, especially when the cavemen come to a climax, just before the Indian Sitars take over. The guitar part at the end is phenominal and walks right into the guitar part of the next track without a break, a brilliant pop song, by contrast......
