      That's too awesome! I quite admire the first R&B-styled album by The Moodies. My dad has the first American album, which over here was called "Moody Blues #1" (I think the officially accepted title is "The Magnificent Moodies" from the UK version). However, to get back to my point, my dad played that record quite often--as well as many other records by the Moodies--and I just love their music, no matter which period one wishes to discuss!

    Welcome to the Moody Blues. They were a completely different kind of band decades ago from what rock 'n roll people were used to hearing. Same holds true today. They introduced the use of philosophy in rock music as well as being of the groups to pioneer progressive rock. Very deep lyrics combined with almost indescribable instrumentals clearly set them apart... and their music continues to resonate all these decades later. Essentially, they stand alone as being something beyond rock 'n roll. They are their own music genre, as no one else really compares.
    Thank you for this post! And, yes it was a flute courtesy of Ray Thomas.
    Maybe you could check out other of their works, especially from their earlier albums. If you do, and along with the unique instrumentals, pay close attention to the lyrics. You won't regret it, just hold onto your hat because some of their music, and the message, will open up another world... the world inside each of us.. For example, maybe something like "Eyes of a Child" (Part 1 and 2) from the To Our Children's Children's Children album or "One More Time to Live" (where they assess the very heart of humanity and the human situation) off the Every Good Boy Deserves Favor album.
    Thanks again.

      A beautiful story but not true. 🙂 However, the real story is quits lovely. Justin Hayward wrote "Nights" at age 19 while he was living in London. He was at the heartbreaking end of one love affair, but he had met a new, long-haired beauty named Marie who was exciting him. The central image was in fact based on the white satin sheets a previous girlfriend had given Justin and with which he dressed his bed. But the song itself reflected his passion and pain for these two young women in his life. He married Marie in December 1970 and they are still married today.

    I have seen the Moody Blues 15 times dating back to 1971. Their music inspired me to play the flute.

    I am SO fiddlesticking glad you did the longer album version !
    And I KNEW the symphonic music and “poetry” at the end was going to blow your mind.

    Yes flute Ray is playing the flute(I forget his last name-he may be deceased now, not sure). We used to smoke weed and drop acid and listen to The Moody Blues. One of the greatest bands of the hippy era of the 60s/70s, they instilled in me a lifelong love of Rock/Classical music which, going on 80 years old, I still have and I am forever grateful to them for it.
    Thank you, Jayy, for bringing back memories of those grand, wonderful old days and times gone by.

    Justin Hayward (the main vocalist) wrote this song when he was just 19. I've seen them in concert so many times and they are just awesome! Now you will have to go down the Moody Blues rabbit hole.. Plz. check out the Moodies doing: "New Horizons", "Highway" and "Had to Fall in Love". RIP Ray Thomas (the flautist, vocalist and founding member of the Moody Blues).

      John Lodge is the one with the gr8 falsetto voice. And now we have lost another original Moody: Graeme Edge; the original drummer. What you just heard was the full version with the spoken-word poem, "Late Lament" at the end. Sometimes they start the song with the poem at the beginning. They used to most times perform with an orchestra or the Mellotron, which can sound like an orchestra. In 2008, South Carolina’s Hard Rock Park in Myrtle Beach unveiled the Nights In White Satin: The Trip theme park. The Moodies are one of my top 5 favorite bands and always will be. Peace. :-)

    16 studio albums, numerous solo albums and over 200 songs, the Moodies will always take you on a journey and yes that was a flute which is on many of their songs

    I was raised on The Moody Blues, Procol Harum, Dusty Springfield, Climax Blues Band. My father returned from the Vietnam War, we listen to this music for years! The most meaningful music of the century! Don't forget about Louis D Armstrong, What a Wonderful World.! This man set me on a course that changed my life.!

I’m so happy watching you kids get to know our music and see that we really had something going on... not to mention how nice it is for us to hear all our favs again. I especially love YOUR reactions, girl! Have a happy day. 😁😁

    Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for doing the original full length studio version and NOT the various shortened live versions that everyone else is doing. This is, hands down, the greatest romantic classic rock ballad of all time. My favorite band. Their music is majestic, mystical and magical. I knew you'd love it. 😎✌☮💕❤

    There is "more"! Get the album...... MORE is there. Not better but a beautiful continuing of the music...... The finest, choicest, gift we can give back to God for the gift of music that he, firstly, gave to us. And how he must enjoy it! He gets to watch - his- creation create. What a special gift to him and what pure Joy to give and receive!
