Probably the most unique and recognized band during the late sixties for their ability to reach out and have influence over the their vast audiences, that is the ability to touch the listeners very soul. Their writings, arrangements are an amalgamation of so many different styles of music, yet seem so right when the final product is introduced to the human ear. Their music over the decades still haunts many of us and for some, it's a spiritual experience. Love you Guys.
Wow! That's so sweet of you to say David🤠, I actually didn't expect to get such a beautiful comment from you. Thanks so much for being such a huge fan of my music🎵. Well I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music. Could you kindly tell me how long you've been a fan of my music???
Omgosh!!! I've always enjoyed the Moody Blues, grew up in the 60's. But I didn't know much about music due to my incredible horrible life.....then a few years ago, I found Denny Laine! ❤ He Is AWESOME! I have a 'thing ' for gingers (redheads). Denny Laine is one of the BEST ever. Thankful for the music 🎶 🙌 ❤❤❤
Seen them live in Ipswich last time they toured..bloody brilliant night and have since seen Justin Hayward 4 times..he's still handsome as ever and a musical genius.
Rest In Peace Ray Thomas. We were hoping to see you at the Rock Hall Induction April 14. Damn you Jann Wenner. Damn You ALL for not letting the MB in b4 now.

@@dennylaine8735hello Denny, I've been a moodie fan ever since 1968 when I first heard "Nights in White Satin" on Dave Symonds BBC Session on my transistor radio in India and I can proudly say that the Moody Blues is my all time favourite band.... peace and love from India ☮️✌️☮️🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

@@dennylaine8735 I enjoyed the earlier incarnation of the Moodies (all the early British bands - must have been something in the UK water that produced so many fine artists) as well as the later lineup that was so productive and unusual. In your time, I especially enjoy the filmed version of Pinder's Haven't Really Got the Time. So much energy with Rod Clarke bouncing around. Energy that the later lineup didn't have on the same tune. They were built for other things. Glad that you have so much of your work from then on records. I've listened to them for many decades, as I backtracked when the first albums of the later progressive band were released.

What I find interesting is the camera focuses on Ray Thomas a lot more in the early video clips.. As I did when I saw him live here in Vancouver, so many times.. R.I.P on Your Astral Plain, Our Cosmic Rocker
It may be a Lodge song, but Ray sings lead vocal, so of course the camera focuses on him. Too bad he didn't also play rhythm guitar to free up Hayward. This song needs the lead guitar to stand out more.

this is a studio recording, until mid 1980's televised shows almost always required bands to lip-sync or ad-lib. so I agree that they were more than just a studio band... but this is not an example of that.
@@skandababy Those are absolutely NOT the original studio recordings. I'm very familiar with In Search of the Lost Chord. Ride My See Saw has Justin playing a rhtym guitar only with a different ending. I also hear vocal differences and even mistakes vs. the original recordings. The bass in the intro of Dr. Livingstone I presume isn't the same at all. Do you mean they recorded it off camera then lipsynced...even though they actually plug their instruments in here. The amps are on.
Great performance even if it looks like the French audience was waiting for the next act, a French ventriloquist and his dog, Bark! The Moody Blues have been awesome since their beginnings! Young, handsome dudes from England!
John O'Connell The girls weren't the audience. They were staged performers that were supposed to be non-reactive. It was considered to be arty, as it was contrary to the norm. A recurring theme during the sixties.

You can really hear the Beatles influence in Dr Livingston. My dad played their albums every Sunday when I was growing up. It was a long time coming but they made it to the HOF.
PBS had a special about 25 years ago that had a lot of live performances. It was out when "Your Wildest Dream" was a hit. One of the best documentary's of theirs.
They were legends in the making. Greatest rock band in history but I’ve never seen a band playing to an audience of shop window dummies before!! Guess it was considered cool in 1968.

Well the Beatles played live for several years but got tired of not being able to hear themselves over the silly screaming girls so stopped doing it and made albums instead.
@@davidlong1786 what i meant was the Beatles couldn't reproduce the over produced songs from Revolver to Sgt and Magical but The Moodys could do all their tunes.

The music of the Moody Blues is like a mystery. I’ve been a fan of this band since I was 20 years old. I can honestly tell you that I believe the music of the moody blues saved my life! Because when I was a young, I discovered that I preferred to listen to their music with clear mind than to sit around and smoke dope.

Don’t forget Mike Pinder and his magical Mellotron…
Made it all come together ..
Passed away April 24. RIP dear brother.
One of the original pioneers that put the mellotron "on the map"!
I really missed Mike leaving the band.
Robert Fripp once said: "Tuning a Mellotron doesn't."
I'm loving this. Thanks so much for posting. I'm so appreciative of being born in the right era. Nothing better than growing up with the Moodies.

Hey dude, you nailed it! 👌
Canada loves the Moody Blues.
The Beatles.
I like how television was then...everyone dressed well and had manners and women were beautiful.
Justin never gets credit for being one of the best rock guitarists.
Where would my life be without the magical Moody Blues and Justin Hayward. Thanks for sharing the joy for 50 years!
Seen them live in Ipswich last time they toured..bloody brilliant night and have since seen Justin Hayward 4 times..he's still handsome as ever and a musical genius.
Ah, Ray Thomas. I love him. R.I.P.
The look Ray gave to bass player John Lodge his loud high voice. Awesome band in its time then and now before the passing of Ray Thomas RIP.
Incredible the luck they had with Laine's replacement. Justin Hayward had(s) it all ..the looks , talent ....
Yes, and John was hired at the same time that Justin was. John and Justin are both great.
Great song!!! Such a good group, ever!!!💙💙💙💙.... They are the best!!!!! No band COME'S close to these talented men!!!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀.. 2022...
from a fellow Brummie,sad day another genius gone to that "gig in the sky" rip MP still listening to the albums after 50years thank you xx
Rest In Peace Ray Thomas. We were hoping to see you at the Rock Hall Induction April 14. Damn you Jann Wenner. Damn You ALL for not letting the MB in b4 now.
Jann Wenner has turned into a asshole. You only get in with his approval & it's turned into a money generating racket. Who is watching the
books?
The moodies should have been in the hall on their first qualification. Many who are in don't even play rock. I don't get it.
This wonderful footage shows the group in their prime. Priceless. All looking great.
@@randyacuna3248 Screw the Hall of Fame. The Moodies didn't need to prove anything ever.
@@sialatorah very correct!
Don't know how those women could sit so still during Ride my Seesaw, that song almost demands you get up and dance.
They had their job to just be scenery and not draw attention to themselves. Just pretty 'art pieces".

I would be scared too!
I almost did not recognize Mr. Hayward with that dark hair color he had back then in 1968.
Very impressive live performance!
Ray Thomas, digging it the most as usual. Love it!
The greatest prog rock band ever- Hail the great Moody Blues!
Besides yes and king crimson and Emerson lake and palmer rush
RIP Ray Thomas.
Rare to ever see live footage of The Moody Blues performing Dr. Livingstone, especially back in '68! Thanks for sharing.
Daniel Lars What a journey! Thanks for this treasure!
How they went from Go Now to this wonderful band is amazing. Such talent. I love their harmonies together. No one else could ever sound like them.

@@WilliamSilva-dq6zj How would you know since they never tried playing those live? They stopped doing live shows in 1966.
@@davidlong1786 as you said they never tried. I love the beatles as much as anyone but Without an orchestra they couldn't reproduce those songs back then. Another reason they stopped touring. Im sure they would do great renditions but if you watch the Moodys live they sound amazing!
RIP Ray you will be missed xxx
great stuff vintage classics thank you
Oh! Thank you so much for being such an amazing fan of my music my Dear🙏🤠. I hope you never stop being a fan and also stop listening to my songs🎶. Well could you kindly tell me how long you've been a fan my music???
The music of the Moody Blues is like a mystery. I’ve been a fan of this band since I was 20 years old. I can honestly tell you that I believe the music of the moody blues saved my life! Because when I was a young, I discovered that I preferred to listen to their music with clear mind than to sit around and smoke dope.
I recorded all of thier albums on real to real tapes up to 74 in the navy and would listen to em off watches still to this my favorite band 👍
COOL THAKS FOR PRESERVING ...
Love those guys!
Oh My!!! That's so sweet of you to say Barbara🤠, I actually didn't expect to get such a beautiful comment from you. Thanks so much for being such a huge fan of my music🎵. Well I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music. Could you kindly tell me how long you've been a fan of my music???
Different Moody set up. effective bare bones musical sound. Seated women observing and moodies faces reacting to their and each other vocals is Memorable as they hang on for the musical ride. Thank you for posting peace too all
'a thing of beauty is a joy forever'...John Keats...'Endymion'...1818..

epic clip, thanks
The look he gives John Lodge at 6:21 cracked me up so hard.
R.I.P. Ray Thomas
Brilliant live music.
Anyone see the likeness between the young Ray Thomas and Michael Palin. Ray would have been great in the dead parrot sketch.
Justin looks so miserable.....but John looks like he’s having a hell of a good time...
I think that was Justin's job back then, to look woebegone.
John is getting the royalty check
John always looks happy. 💗💕
I loved Ray's and Mike's singing. Would of liked more. Love Justin too.
