My late wife bought me this LP Makes you wonder how Joan Jett Got into the R&R HOF ahead of the Moody Blues. Was over shadowed by Sgt. Pepper's in 1967
The song Twilight Time has only been played by the Moodies 8 times at Concerts. How lucky I am to be a person to have seen them play it live.. I'm sorry for bragging, but finding that out made Me feel Special. I missed seeing them again in Orlando this past year.. I didn't have the money, that was sad. The Moody Blues are My all time Favorite band. Their Music is just wonderful and timeless. I thank God for sending them to. Peace to All and Happy New Year.
I saw them at their 50th anniversary show wynn encore las vegas 2018. They played entire DOFP LP fabulous show and twilight time was powerful. Great song in concert
THAT'S SPECIAL. I ONLY HAVE THE WISHES THAT I COULD SEE THEM PLAY LIVE . THE FIRST TIME HEAR THEM I HAD TO LOOK THEM UP TOO KNOW WHO THEY ARE AND THEREFORE EVERY TIME I HEAR THEM IT'S A SPECIAL TIME .........FOR ME.
RIP Mike Pinder, 12/27/1941 - 4/24/2024, who brought us The Sunset. And to Ray Thomas, two days younger than Mike, who passed 1/4/2018. He brought us Twilight Time.
Two truly haunting melodies by geniuses who didn't have to rest a laurel on a Maharishi like the Beatles did. They did magic by being two hard working Englishmen without drugs and ego madness to make these twin melodies from Paradise while on their earth, so that even in their decay now, it enriches us who play their music over 50 years since conception.
I would give Twilight Time four and a half stars out of five, while The Sunset gets five stars, along with Nights in White Satin and Peak Hour, all from Days of Future Passed.
@Rusty I believe what he is referring to is the fact that if you ask 10 random people if they know who the Moody Blues are, most will have no idea. Everyone knows the Rolling Stones, the Eagles, etc.
@@Mynamesalexa Saw them in concert a few years ago in Toledo,Oh. While they weren't the most "engaging" entertainers (which is why I think the HOF snubbed them), they were still awesome musicians! English Sunset remains one of my all-time faves. A timeless group.
@@70hoovie Until his death, Ray Thomas was very nice to me on Facebook & Graeme Edge & I shared hellos & talked about a solo project he had in 1975 via Messenger.
As a kid and through my teens I heard little music that had any effect on me until, at 17, I heard this and, like you, I played it over and over and over. I was totally captivated by its magic. I'd never heard anything like it, so inspirational! I'm 68 now - and it still has that effect on me, as did all the Core 7 albums of the Moody Blues. Of course, I just had to have a mellotron to recreate those wonderful sounds. It took 50 years, but I got one in the end!
Thats what we are here for,,to expand our consciousness as far as we can until our "death" then come back again in another body + expand it even more till we eventually find out the ultimate TRUTH that we are all IMMORTAL spiritual beings that can NEVER really die... then when we finally become fully enlightened+ we will all merge back with SOURCE/GOD our Father..we are all his children....a trillion sparks flying out of 1 very large "Loving" FIRE....its all a Divine PLAY...HIS LILA don;t you see...Its ALL about LOVE...Hope you all find it as I have my dear brothers+ sisters..Enjoy your long individual journeys back HOME...NAMASTE'
63 year old man. Soaking in a my hot bathtub, honey vanilla candle lit, blasting this on my Marshall bluetooth speaker. Working in 3 hours. I can't wait to retire next year, so I can spark one.
thank you a professor in my middle school used to play the sun went down as we sat in our planetarium and watched the stars before the lesson plans, i never knew where he got the song..Thanks dr. Edoff!!!~MomofReed
These two songs --and the interludes in-between-- are too often overlooked in Days of Future Passed. When I heard them for the first time, it was like finding a beautiful painting.
Thank you Ray Thomas for this catchy piece which I have been singing too for over 50 yrs and now to honor you and continue to wonder in your own lyrics(RIP)- In twilight time dream with me awhile.
This song where the entire album is a showcase of what an average day is about but in a series of days. I feel that some of those days really match the days I had in my Days of Future Passed. As magical and wonderful as it may seem Growing up in the mountains of Costa Rica and listening to the Moody Blues on LP records- has got to be a wonderful part of my life!
An Extremely Classy and Talented Band. For some, who were not around in the late 60's or hip enough to take the time to indulge in their creative greatness....they missed out. The Moody Blues's music was monumental in capturing our minds ....and this could be felt without taking any stimulants....then again, it didn't hurt any. Caught their act in the early 70's in Toronto at Maple Leaf Gardens. "Nights In White Satin" and "Tuesday Afternoon" are my two favourites but, I do appreciate many of their tunes. They took a different road to stardom. I Am Grateful. Thank-you.
THAT'S RIGHT MY LOVE...IT DIDN'T HURT AT ALL.....LSD....IT OPENED MANY DOORS.....THE GOVERNMENT STILL DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW......LOVE YOU.😇😇😇💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟💫💫💫💫🌷
If you ever get hold of the remastered CD version of the Seventh Sojourn album, check ✔️ out the original version of Isn't Life Strange (one of the bonus tracks). The instrumental middle section following the second chorus sounds like musical heaven!
@@MichaelHartman-qt4mp Hi Michael, Thanks for sharing your strong view and info regarding "The Moody Blues". I just played the 3 songs that you wrote about. I really wasn't familiar with the first instrumental number...I found it pleasant. The 2nd song...I also did know...and I enjoyed it more...Thanks. "Isn't Life Strange" I do remember well...while I played it once again and read a text from a fellow "Blues" fan...of how his wife of 43 years had just passed away 3 weeks ago...the eyes swelled up and the tears just flowed...(in a somewhat "good-feeling way".) Yes..."Isn't Life Strange" strikes our heart deep...we no longer have to "Search For The Lost Chord" it is here in this song. Thanks Mike...It's All Good.
First time I heard Twilight Time was about a month ago. (I'm 28 cut me some slack. Its also nearly impossible to find Moody Blues in stores around here.) Long story short I listen every couple days, and I listen to at least a couple Moody Blue songs a day.. Damn I need a time machine!
too bad u missed the late 60;s...it was a great time for mind expansion and consciousness raising...but its never too late to start...it is our collective destiny...to grow +evolve in LOVE and LIGHT! May the FORCE be with You!
My older brother bought all the Moody Blues albums back in the '60s and early '70s. I was 14 when he got In Search of the Lost Chord. That was the end of bubble gum and beach music for me.
My epiphany was hearing To Our Children's Children's Children played in full at my local record store. Bought it, took it home, and played it endlessly for the next 6 months. Goodby to Top 40, playlists, and this week's #1.
I was in love with The Moody blues back in the early 70s, did not know what to think about the orchestration then but I am certainly loving it as an old lady. Saw them twice in my teens. So glad, but makes me sad
The album is a track by his own, it's all a full experience but if I have to choose a best part, is this one. Evening: The SunSet - Twilight Time is some of the best music I've ever heard... It takes me to another dimension everytime, also this album is the most underrated in music history, no doubt, and the main reason is that it doesn't reach many people like other famous groups.
Moody Blues as a group is also very underrated, although they produced some of the truly memorable songs that are the never dying classics of the pop music after so many years!

Wow!! I was out a few months ago, WHEN, I heard this on Rock and Roll Roots with Bob Strowd! Yes, I’m part of the Strowd Crowd! I haven’t heard/listened to THIS in years! THIS IS Beautiful! Wow, simply beautiful! The Moodies are great! We were BLESSED to grow up and listen to their beautiful music! Rock on Moodies! 👍😎❤️🎤🎼🎹✌️. Steve
thanks to my older cousins my world changed. I was 13 when I first heard this album. it had just come out. now I am 60 and thank god for them opening the musical world for me.
I used to listen to this album constantly. It got me through some real tough times and still does. It’s a cool song to play at nighttime when it’s starting to get real dark out. Ecological synchronicity.
we all came to this planet to experience tough times....it was DESIGNED to give us trouble! But its the FAST-TRACK to real Spiritual growth..(if you make it through!) but don't take it too seriously..its only a dream afterall Namaste.
I was lucky enough to go to a middle school that had a planetarium , our science teacher introduced us to the amazing solar system with this song as an intro to our introduction to the first class in the planetarium , his name was Dr Edoff at Chatterton Middle school in Warren Michigan. If any of his family members ever see this I hope you understand what an amazing man you had in your family , he taught me to fall so madly in love with the solar system when I had horrible troubles in my home life and he allowed me to dream big dreams and made me want to reach for the stars .
Dr Edoff was my science teacher at Chatterton 35 years ago, and was the main reason I pursued a career in science. I think he touched a lot of students like he did us!
I've always had a different take on this line. If you consider that the MB's are using the day as a metaphor for a lifetime (and rebirth of the cycle), you could read into this that when you die, the world goes on without you, and possibly that the meaning of life is what you gave to it while you were living.
The meaning of life is what you think it is anyhow . You know since you're the creator of everything in your reality . Everything in YOUR reality came from your brain including what is seen in your visual cortext. Your reality and yours only.
My favorite song from them from one of the best albums of all time.I sometimes wake up and play the entire cd throughout my day at just the right time to coincide with the songs.The sky never ceases to amaze me with it's beauty no matter how many times I have done this...it alway's feels like the first time I have seen the world
I love this one. I woke from a dream to this one playing in the mind. The dream was of a very ancient people, perhaps the Mayans. They would change their images upon the sun set, from that of human, to a lion, and then, to that of a beast, inside a temple of some kind. In those days/realm, people relied on the sun and moon for their every move in the life cycle. For me, I live in dreams. The physical is totally secondary now. This is how ancient societies lived and it seems one day, everything will come full circle, and then, upon a straight line entering into a much higher realm of existence---
Amazing! Always loved this song. Watching reminds me of how awesome God is! And in spite of all the deception (Matthew 24) going on, so much is being revealed. No big bang!!!
This brings back many memories when my mom was alive we listen to The Lord's Prayer when our local AM Radio Station WBCK (Battle Creek, Michigan) Signed off for the day.. this was very early in the morning /late night .. it was in the very early 1970's .. This was over 50 years ago.. when I heard this it also brought back memories of my mom who past away Christmas Eve Night 1984.... I was glad I was able to find this recording again.. Thank you RUclips... I just fell to pieces and still today.
Amazing video, and of course, the Moodies marvelous music! Twilight Time, one of my faves of Ray Thomas. Oh Ray, sweet Ray! Your beautiful soul has left this planet, but your lovely voice and music lives on! RIP Ray Thomas. Love & peace to all! Deb xox(berrygirl/moodygirl) 6/28/19
A day I will always remember. Celebrated my 21st birthday in 1968 seeing the Moodies play in the gymnasium at Cal Western University in San Diego. An absolutely incredible experience!!
I have always ADORED this song.at the very beginning it sounds like the WIZARD of Oz. I loved that movie too. They are such poets. Stunning lyrics! Nice!
The first time I heard this was in '67 when it was released. I was only 7 years old and my older brother had bought the album. When he would leave the house, I would sneak into his room and "borrow" it from him and would take it in my room and play it. I loved the album cover. It was an amazing thing to the eyes of a 7 year old. This album represents one of my first recollections of hearing "rock" music for the first time in my life. This and Herman's Hermit's "I'm Henry the VIII, I am" :)
Astounding you tube, thanks for putting it up ! And of course astounding music from our rock n roll inductees Moody Blues ! Rest in peace Ray Thomas. Twilight Time- great song you wrote, sleep well brother from a fellow musician, Peace out, Paul.
Thanks. I used to trip to this and other moody albums. They were the best of the 6os and 70s music, If you wanted to go high and stay high. I had some profound spiritual experiences listening. I was on Patmos Island in greece in 2003 the Island of Saint John i had this album. i cant describe the vision i had a sort of spiritual labyrinth that went up into the heavens.
thats why were HERE...for some good ole "MIND EXPANSION"..its what separates us from the animals...we are SELF AWARE but we are even MUCH more than that! SEEK and you shall FIND!! SAT CHIT ANANDA...
Once you meditate and become a "witness" to life..your life will never be the same again...you will be above it all ..you'll be in a state of unending + ever increasing bliss...and NOTHING can ever take that away from you.. then you are FREE ... now + forever! Namaste. LOVE+LIGHT!
I lov e how all the music blends into each other and the music and orchestra parts run in to each other. In some ways this is one of the best albums ever
You did a lovely interpretaion of the lyrics. I think this would have been one of the more difficult songs to match with a visual story line. Really enjoyed this and Thank You to my twilight lovin' friend for the share :) Annie
I play this album when I'm tired, and I just drift off onto another place. I still can't believe how good it sounds even today, as nothing but crap-rap is being played on the radio stations.
Days of Future Passed is a haunting album. I used to play the audio cassette while on Hangar/Flight Line Watch Duty which was 8 hours long. From midnight to 8 am and no one was out there..............................just me, my flashlight and the Moody Blues (was illegal, but who cared). Walking endlessly in large circles and listening........................ethereal!
Not to take anything away from the talent of the members of the MB, but be sure to credit composer, arranger and conductor PETER KNIGHT for most of the emotions that are stirred within you as you listen to this magnificent album.
Yes. The magic is all his. But, the nice little interludes (pun intended) that he wrote were all taken from their melodies. They must have been gobsmacked when they first heard the finished product.
Why aren't The Moody Blues in the R&R Hall Of Fame. Joan Jett is. I don't think she, nor Kanye West, 50 Cents, or The Beebe could create music like this. Your videos complement this music perfectly!
Amazing in every way, including the job done by Peter Knight who wrote the orchestral interludes, they are so seamless and extend and enhance the original melodies in such amazing fashion.This entire album and a good set of headphones is pure bliss for me.
WOW...theres one person out there that dislikes this, AND went through the "trouble" of watching it...probably a Justin Bieber fan. Anyhow, great video! Great song! One of my favorites growing up (and I'm only 24) The Moodies were my first ever rock concert and I was so blown away to finally see them I was a little boy in tears the whole time. Thank you MOM!
Twilight Time is not from this world. When I first heard this song almost 50 years ago it opened my eyes and they are still wide open thanks to seeing The Moody's a few months ago in Boston and hearing them play this. Truly they will be playing this song and all of the Moody Blues songs a hundred years from now. I swear I will be hearing Twilight Time when I leave this earth on my way to God via The Milky Way time traveling.
This album is a masterpiece.
I learned about it when I was 13. 50 years later still love it
YES IT IS

Makes you wonder how Joan Jett Got into the R&R HOF ahead of the Moody Blues.

Twilight time is my favorite song on this album. Ray freaking killed it. It is such a JAM!
Not really a jam,morelike a compositional in the classical sense. Definitely slow and groovy though.
Eerily haunting, what a wonderful song - maybe Ray's finest.

If any of his family members ever see this I hope you understand what an amazing man you had in your family , he taught me to fall so madly in love with the solar system when I had horrible troubles in my home life and he allowed me to dream big dreams and made me want to reach for the stars .
Dr Edoff was my science teacher at Chatterton 35 years ago, and was the main reason I pursued a career in science. I think he touched a lot of students like he did us!
HE KNOWS MY DARLING.........HE KNOWS......😇😇😇😇😇💖💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫🌷
A few other people in the comments section have mentioned this teacher! Small world.
Amazing. Blessings and Infinite Love to all.
Legends...geniuses...unmatched...💜 🎯
Brilliant!
yessss
From the greatest album of all time!!!
and the world still goes on through the night .......Moodys , most positive group of all time ....
I've always had a different take on this line. If you consider that the MB's are using the day as a metaphor for a lifetime (and rebirth of the cycle), you could read into this that when you die, the world goes on without you, and possibly that the meaning of life is what you gave to it while you were living.
The meaning of life is what you think it is anyhow . You know since you're the creator of everything in your reality . Everything in YOUR reality came from your brain including what is seen in your visual cortext. Your reality and yours only.
are you positive?
My favorite song from them from one of the best albums of all time.I sometimes wake up and play the entire cd throughout my day at just the right time to coincide with the songs.The sky never ceases to amaze me with it's beauty no matter how many times I have done this...it alway's feels like the first time I have seen the world
beautiful comment from a "beautiful" soul....your innocence and vision is admirable+ refreshing... namaste.
the beginning of progressive rock... i'll love it forever !
I love this one. I woke from a dream to this one playing in the mind. The dream was of a very ancient people, perhaps the Mayans. They would change their images upon the sun set, from that of human, to a lion, and then, to that of a beast, inside a temple of some kind. In those days/realm, people relied on the sun and moon for their every move in the life cycle.
For me, I live in dreams. The physical is totally secondary now. This is how ancient societies lived and it seems one day, everything will come full circle, and then, upon a straight line entering into a much higher realm of existence---
All in all I love these image-filled videos of MB's songs. This one of Pinder's...very trippy, very '60's.
Love singing along to Ray. This is in their top 3 songs.
Memories of Friday 5:00 pm after work with a large whisky in a living room with the lights off and the sun going down............
Amazing! Always loved this song. Watching reminds me of how awesome God is! And in spite of all the deception (Matthew 24) going on, so much is being revealed. No big bang!!!
Best Group of Times, Forever
These guys and ELO were my teen and college years. Never gets old.
I love this song and this whole album! Masterpiece!
This brings back many memories when my mom was alive we listen to The Lord's Prayer when our local AM Radio Station WBCK (Battle Creek, Michigan) Signed off for the day.. this was very early in the morning /late night .. it was in the very early 1970's .. This was over 50 years ago.. when I heard this it also brought back memories of my mom who past away Christmas Eve Night 1984.... I was glad I was able to find this recording again.. Thank you RUclips... I just fell to pieces and still today.
Great visual interpretation of these two superb songs from a great album. Nicely done.
Amazing video, and of course, the Moodies marvelous music! Twilight Time, one of my faves of Ray Thomas. Oh Ray, sweet Ray! Your beautiful soul has left this planet, but your lovely voice and music lives on! RIP Ray Thomas. Love & peace to all! Deb xox(berrygirl/moodygirl) 6/28/19
incredible piano on twilight time.love it.
theres nothing that can compare wlth them..timeless...limitless.....BEAUTIFUL
A day I will always remember. Celebrated my 21st birthday in 1968 seeing the Moodies play in the gymnasium at Cal Western University in San Diego. An absolutely incredible experience!!
Holy sh*t. That's an experience that is utterly priceless.
Hard to choose, but in my opinion the best 2 songs on this great album.
I do think this is where the album "peaks." Life is good while Side II is on.
I have always ADORED this song.at the very beginning it sounds like the WIZARD of Oz. I loved that movie too. They are such poets. Stunning lyrics! Nice!
it's magic
The first time I heard this was in '67 when it was released. I was only 7 years old and my older brother had bought the album. When he would leave the house, I would sneak into his room and "borrow" it from him and would take it in my room and play it. I loved the album cover. It was an amazing thing to the eyes of a 7 year old. This album represents one of my first recollections of hearing "rock" music for the first time in my life. This and Herman's Hermit's "I'm Henry the VIII, I am" :)
AIRIAL DISPLAY BY THE FIREFLY BRIGADE , now that's music
When I play Days, And, When It reaches this part. It give me chills. Great lyrics.
I constructed painted planets in fluorescent paint (small balls) suspended from a ceiling with black light. Everything was so special. Circa 1974.
Needless to say that reefer was being enjoyed, too.
Hopefully, not to scale...
Thank you ...I love everything that is the Moodies...1973 was the first time I heard them!
I heard the moody blues when I was five
chills and thrills , the moody blues have carved out a special place in heaven ,,,,,take a look out there , planets everywhere
A Question of Ballance got me hooked. Best band ever. Caught them in concert at BC Place 1986. Miss you Ray.
This is one of my all-time favorites!
Twilight Time is a hell of a jam
Astounding you tube, thanks for putting it up ! And of course astounding music from our rock n roll inductees Moody Blues ! Rest in peace Ray Thomas. Twilight Time- great song you wrote, sleep well brother from a fellow musician, Peace out, Paul.
Massman The Moody Blues are pure musical geniuses underlined with a masterful mixture of Rock and Classical Music. Bravo!!!
Thanks. I used to trip to this and other moody albums. They were the best of the 6os and 70s music, If you wanted to go high and stay high. I had some profound spiritual experiences listening. I was on Patmos Island in greece in 2003 the Island of Saint John i had this album. i cant describe the vision i had a sort of spiritual labyrinth that went up into the heavens.
This album encompasses everything in life no exceptions ~ thanks for allowing me to listen to this again.. The Moody Blues are one of the best.
This music stands the test of time, brilliant moody blues
Beautiful music....changed me forever!
I loved this album from beginning to end
used to explore my mind listening to the moody blues in the 70's
DID YOU STOP?????
you were not alone
its a good start...try to find a way to expand it even MORE....all paths eventually lead to the ONE ..we ARE ONE!
thats why were HERE...for some good ole "MIND EXPANSION"..its what separates us from the animals...we are SELF AWARE but we are even MUCH more than that! SEEK and you shall FIND!! SAT CHIT ANANDA...
Once you meditate and become a "witness" to life..your life will never be the same again...you will be above it all ..you'll be in a state of unending + ever increasing bliss...and NOTHING can ever take that away from you.. then you are FREE ... now + forever! Namaste. LOVE+LIGHT!
Another beautifully choreographed video. The images and timing are so perfect...well done!
Been my absolute favorite album of all time since my 20’s!! Now in my 50’s!
This suite is my favorite Moody Blues work, and you, sir, have captured it very well...again!
My favorite part: 6:04. That french horn gets me every time.
I love the background vocals ...does something to the soul.
YES IT DOES
I lov e how all the music blends into each other and the music and orchestra parts run in to each other. In some ways this is one of the best albums ever
You did a lovely interpretaion of the lyrics. I think this would have been one of the more difficult songs to match with a visual story line. Really enjoyed this and Thank You to my twilight lovin' friend for the share :)
Annie
I play this album when I'm tired, and I just drift off onto another place. I still can't believe how good it sounds even today, as nothing but crap-rap is being played on the radio stations.
I AGREE....LOVE YOU...THANK YOU.....💖💖💖💖💖😇😇😇🌟🌟💫💫💫💫
Days of Future Passed is a haunting album. I used to play the audio cassette while on Hangar/Flight Line Watch Duty which was 8 hours long. From midnight to 8 am and no one was out there..............................just me, my flashlight and the Moody Blues (was illegal, but who cared). Walking endlessly in large circles and listening........................ethereal!
Not to take anything away from the talent of the members of the MB, but be sure to credit composer, arranger and conductor PETER KNIGHT for most of the emotions that are stirred within you as you listen to this magnificent album.
Yes. The magic is all his. But, the nice little interludes (pun intended) that he wrote were all taken from their melodies. They must have been gobsmacked when they first heard the finished product.
Love, love, 💕
Always LOVED this tune!!! Parts of it remind me of The Wizard of Oz...Great band and album.
Great mixture in the visual presentation. Applause!
I have goosebumps. I love this song so much. I can't wait to see them live!!!
fantastic !!! beautiful ! great composition bravo!!!It makes us dream and feel this beautiful music even better.
this is a personal anthem for me... As I was born during the early hours of twilight
Exquisite images -- glorious music! Thank you!
Why aren't The Moody Blues in the R&R Hall Of Fame. Joan Jett is.
I don't think she, nor Kanye West, 50 Cents, or The Beebe could create music like this.
Your videos complement this music perfectly!
Because some idiot in Cleveland cannot tell class when it bites them on the arse
I agree
They just put them in the r and r hall of fame 2018
I grew up with opera and the classics. My father sang opera. But the Moody Blues were welcomed as a warm friend. We listened to their albums alot.
Amazing in every way, including the job done by Peter Knight who wrote the orchestral interludes, they are so seamless and extend and enhance the original melodies in such amazing fashion.This entire album and a good set of headphones is pure bliss for me.
i remember this song in 1970 :)
Oh...you came to the party a little late then...cool
WOW...theres one person out there that dislikes this, AND went through the "trouble" of watching it...probably a Justin Bieber fan. Anyhow, great video! Great song! One of my favorites growing up (and I'm only 24) The Moodies were my first ever rock concert and I was so blown away to finally see them I was a little boy in tears the whole time. Thank you MOM!
Wow! You did a really great job of adapting this song to the imagery!
Nice video. Congratulations
Twilight Time is not from this world. When I first heard this song almost 50 years ago it opened my eyes and they are still wide open thanks to seeing The Moody's a few months ago in Boston and hearing them play this. Truly they will be playing this song and all of the Moody Blues songs a hundred years from now. I swear I will be hearing Twilight Time when I leave this earth on my way to God via The Milky Way time traveling.
You are right it will be what you hear upon returning to heaven....
nicely put...moodies forever!!
How did they perform "Twilight Time" without Ray?
