Gone to Earth is an album by the English rockgroup Barclay James Harvest released in 1977. It peaked #30 in the UK-Charts but in Germany it became their largest selling album. Hymn (a song against the dangers of drug use and dedicated to musicians like Jimi Hendrix, Paul Kossoff and Janis Joplin) was a successful turntable hit at German radio stations in the late 1970s. Poor Man's Moody Blues is a reference to the Moody Blues song Nights in White Satin because reviewers often described Barclay James Harvest as "Moody Blues for the poor".
