Moody Blues, ELP, and Traffic were musical explorers. OAITW r.2.0 May 2025 #5
In my mind too they sure were OAITWt.2.0. And found their way into our souls. Thanks! George McGovern May 2025 #6

I was lucky enough to see Justin Heyward and John Lodge perform this live on their Days of Future Passed tour a few years ago. Don’t tell me old guys can’t rock! It was fabulous!

And the memories just flood me. 1969 tripping on purple microdot listening to the Moody Blues and spiritually soaring. I will never feel that way again, but I will never forget.

Wish I could have been at Albert Hall. The Moody Blues are one of the few bands from that era that I didn’t see.

I guess CDs and youtube videos are the next best thing. Thanks Picaro. — Allan
