I had the privilege of seeing the Moody's in 1969 in San Diego at a local university. Everyone sat on the floor. People everywhere. At the first luscious sound of the Mello, the crowd as a whole became one. For the next few hours we were all transported to a better world. United in the energy of youth that we could make the world a better place. The Moody Blues are the soundtrack of my life. What a privilege. Thank You.....
Lucky you, must have been spectacular listening to the Moody Blues. I had no clue they were singing in the U.S., we didn’t have the media in those days, like today. Too bad for me! 👍😊🎼🎵🎶🦋
They're in the Hall of Fame now, the Moodies got there in 2018 and they deserve it more than most
Not inducted them to the hall of fame long time ago is a musical crime. Ray Thomas never saw this happening. Same thing happened to YES Band, and Chris squire didn’t live to see the band getting the recognition they too deserved long long ago.SO SAD. ENGLISH MUSICIAN ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD. no doubt.
Luis youre absolutely right, Moodies should have got the award much sooner and Ray could have been there to receive the honours...he did know of it just before he died that same year...he got his invitation much too late. 😢
They were a great band - the joy inspired by their music is in no way enhanced by being honored by some stupid institution and any idea that bands inducted before them are somehow “better” or “more significant” is silly.
fuck the hof wrected
Every member of this band is a phenom. Four great singer-songwriters: a mellotron masteryshaman, a melodic bass player--his high falsettos are the most SUBTLY-distinctive sound of the MB'S, much the way Randy Meisner's were to the Eagles, also a 4-singer-songwriter group--a flute player time traveller from King Arthur's Round Table, a balanced mad man-poet on drums, and the thunderdome of talent that is Justin Hayward, who never gets a well-deserved shout out for his guitar work at every guitarist G.O.A.T. discussion. Listen to his right hand pickwork on "You and Me" on the "Seventh Sojourn" album. Real Glen Campbell sh*t. No hot dog fingers there. Put it all together....I am in awe of how rich and full "Nights in White Satin" sounds here, live. This evening performance is the stuff of legend. Much admiration for the camera and sound crew. Things like this, lightning in a bottle, help build a case for carrying on. Thanks to you all with much love, here and above.
WOW !!!! PERFECTLY ARTICULATED MY DARLING....EXCELLENT MY DARLING.....WOW !!!! I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU.......😊😊😊🙏😇💖
@@sharonallison9922 Thanks! It feels good to know that I connected with someone on this topic. Music is my passion.
@@kennethlatham3133 THANK YOU KENNETH...
MINE TOO MY DARLING.....I LOVE THE MOODY'S AS MUCH AS YOU DO SWEETIE.....HAVE YOU LISTEN TO MIKE PINDER "AMONG THE STAR'S" ? 🙏😇💖💋🤗🤗🤗🤗
@Kenneth Latham well said and they were a smash at the induction enjoyed every minute of the video of the induction when I saw it here on RUclips...theyre a phenonomal band and youre abs right about Justin's guitar pieces he made the band rock alongside John on bass, a musical genius. 🎶🎵🎸🎵🎶🎸
Yes, this live "Nights in White Satin" is so emotional, exhilarating...beautiful!💖
The mellotron playing sounded like doom on melancholy man. So good.
it is so cool to see that others felt the same way I felt about the Moodies music. I could never put it words when I was young. Their music meant so much to me.
Justin Hayward what a voice
Wow...I love what you said here. I've never heard it expressed better. When i used to hear their music as a child in the 70s, in my mind they were magical beings, magicians creating other-worldly, ethereal, deeply moving, beautiful and complex music. When I saw them in concert for the first time in 1981, I admired them even more because I saw that they were mortal and yet able to tap into something so powerful that it profoundly touched the lives of millions of people. Moody Blues forever!
@Jackie B Thank you for posting your lovely and profound sentiments. I too, grew up with Moody Blues’s magical sounds but did not connect their music with their images and interviews till recently, almost 50+ years later. I now have a huge crush on Justin like a teenager again.
@@ireneleung5644 I'm glad that you have got to know the band through their images and interviews. They were/are remarkable people. The wisdom that they had as very young men astounds me every time I hear their music. And I understand about the crush--Justin has always been my favorite too!
@@ireneleung5644 Justin "seems to me" to have a special calling for a representative of humanity. As a male I have no crush but deep respect for his clean personal history. A role model of high degree.
I had the same impression of them--magical beings of music. Many of my earliest memories of music are songs by the Moody Blues. Seeing this concert on RUclips is my first time seeing them live.
Two things I'd never properly appreciated until now are Graeme Edge's drumming and the guitar riff on Gypsy.
Loved the way Pinder shouts out with emotion at the end of Melancholy Man. Totally nailed it.
Melancholy man. What a great tune with a lot of great meaning. Go mike pinder
Man, Mike really nailed Melancholy Man! Outstanding!
You're right. Ray did lighten things up and that helped to balance the act. Always loved Ray and his flute playing and his singing voice were gorgeous.
I can’t get enough of the Moodies…I Love it, They are SO YOUNG…THEN AGAIN I’m….70..LMFAO..MY GUYS❤️❤️❤️🎶🎤🎹🎸🎶☮️&💟
Absolutely wonderful to see Ray like this again. Bless you for sharing these clips.
Amen.
We're going...to keep growing...JUST YOU WAIT AND SEE!!! Thank you Mike, you saw long before many of us did...
Justin's face is pure angelic. He is so 🔥🔥🔥!!!! His voice is pure magic...🥀🥀🥀🥀.. 2022..
Oo your in love
Nights In White Satin…one if the GREATEST songs ever written and performed… magnificent!
Im sure glad Mike Pinder was part of that band,,,, he brought that orchestra sound into the arrangements with that instrument.......Great Band and sound!
the melotron used by the beatles too,,when it came out musicains were very against it,they said keyboards sounding like real instroments would put musicians out of work,,and its true the top10 now has very little real musicians playing,its all samples,,shockingly shameful
Of course Mike Pinder was part of the band
As the back cover of In search of a lost chord says "the sound of 5 individuals making these incredible music is nothing short of magic." Their message of LOVE leaves a deep impression on all that hear this remarkable band
I first heard the Moody Blues aged 14 in 1968. I have been a fan ever since and am now 70.
I have seen them 10 times in concert and Justin Hayward solo 3 times.
The best group ever.
As a kid (a long time ago) I had a 45 that had Tuesday Afternoon on the A side and this was the "B". I couldn't figure out how such wonderful and deep music could be made-I absolutely fell in love with it. Here we are many years later and these guys have remained a major part of the soundtrack of my life. Imagine...being able to see them actually make this magic. Some things in life are awesome
IF YOU ARE STILL THERE, I CAN TELL YOU THAT I FELT THE SAME WHEN I FIRST LISTENED THE MOODY BLUES MUSIC, THAT WAS IN 1968...MY BEST THOUGHTS FOR YOU, gelu batir, romania, rm.valcea town, nov, 2020
Just love to see them when they were so young, singing all these songs.
An unbelievable weekend in the summer of 1970 which will live in my memory for ever
This song touches me a lot maybe 🤔 because of its lyrics ( Melancholy man ) and the wonderful amazing melody. It really describes the life of someone who sees and feels the world 🌎 around him otherwise than other people do . Much more sensitive and allergic to the usual things in life . While listening to this song 🎵, I always feel my tears 😭 dropping down . 💜❤️🎵🎵🌎🌎😍🐳🐳⬆️🆙 .
Mike Pinder was the soul of the Moody Blues -he got the mood into the Moodies.....Melancholy Man,Lost in a Lost World,When I'm a free man again.....make my hair stand up.
'Have you heard', is a good one.
...and My Song off Every Good Boy Deserves Favour
one of the best bands of ur time!
All Mike needs is a Mellotron. No other keyboards are necessary. Thanks!
Very atmospheric with the hills in the background and the light fading
The music of the Moody Blues will stand the test of time. One more clear demonstration of the English contribution to music. I recently learned of their work with the Beatles. We love English music as they love American music. It is almost Brotherly. Thanks
Beatles, Pink Floyd, Moody Blues, and Yes, the greatest bands of all time. Thank you for posting this concert, what an amazing show!
SIR RAY THOMAS...ALWAYS MISSED....I ALWAYS GET THEIR VOICES MIXED UP.....SIR RAY & SIR MICHAEL SOUND SO SIMILAR......🙏🙏🙏🙏😇💖
One of the best performances from the festival, hands down.
I've been listing to the Moody ' s since '67'.
Imho they have many soft melodic songs. However hidden in those songs are times that give goose bumps or send my soul soaring. Maybe that is why they never got into Rocks Hall o Fame. Too melodic. They did make some of the most beautiful music.
YES... we long that another can see what we can see... to know what we have lived ...
I wonder how they arranged their songs in the studio when they were writing them? Amazing talents coming together. I think Justin could have moved the world no matter what
The best group, EVER!!!!!! 💙💙💙💙...
forever Justin.....
thanks for this recording, great, thanks! We can travel back with you!
there's something very stirring, dramatic in the last 15 sec of the song (Nights of White Satin)
It really reaches a creshendo doesn't it?
I feel it too
Amazing how rich and full it sounded!
A beam of light will fill his head
AND YOURS MY DARLING....💖
How young they are!! Wow, nothing today comes close to their lyrics. I like the studio versions with all the extra equipment though. Great for meditation. Although it is great to watch them, the live performances don't have near the sound of the recordings. Hard to believe I am still jammin to these guys after 50 years. Nobody does it better.
Melancholy man is from another planet 🪐 👽 damnnn are these guys even human 😅
would love to see this restored in blue ray or 4k
💚🧡💚🧡💚🥰 So long gone..so beautiful. 1978 CCH Hamburg, Mike Pinder had just been replaced by Swiss keyboarder Patrick Moraz: what a pity, cause this will be the original Moodies forever.
A BEAM OF LIGHT WILL FILL YOUR HEAD & YOU'LL REMEMBER WHAT'S BEEN SAID BY ALL THE GREAT WOMEN & MEN OF THIS WORLD.....PAST PRESENT & FUTURE....
Does he actually say women or is that coming from a feminist
point of view.😊
mes premiers émois dans de timides et langoureux slows et là il a 50 ans devant la scène incroyable souvenir de ce festival
Fantastic, and beyond that..
Ah, yes. "Melancholy Man" was always one of my favorite, overlooked Moodies cuts. Pinder's stuff was unique. Sorry he quit.
I'm a melancholy man
That's what I am
All the world surrounds me and my feet are on the ground
I'm a very lonely man
Doing what I can
All the world astounds me and I think I understand
That we're going to keep growing
Wait and see
When all the stars are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground
And angry voices carry on the wind
A beam of light will fill your head
And you'll remember what's been said
By all the good men this world's ever known
Another man is what you'll see
Who looks like you and looks like me
And yet, somehow he will not feel the same
His life caught up in misery
He doesn't think like you and me
'Cause he can't see what you and I can see
When all the stars are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground
And angry voices carry on the wind
A beam of light will fill your head
And you'll remember what's been said
By all the good men this world's ever known
Another man is what you'll see
Who looks like you and looks like me
And yet, somehow he will not feel the same
His life caught up in misery
He doesn't think like you and me
'Cause he can't see what you and I can see
I'm a melancholy man
That's what I am
All the world surrounds me...
I'm a very lonely man
Just doing what I can
All the world astounds me and I think I understand
That we're going to keep growing
Just wait and see
Wait and see
That we're going to keep growing
Just you wait and see
It's comin'! Just wait
Just you wait and see
I'm a melancholy man
That's what I am
Just doing what I can
-----------------------------------------
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can't understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end
And I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
Nights in white satin
Never reaching the end
Letters I've written
Never meaning to send
Beauty I've always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Oh, how I love you
Oh, how I love you
The mioodies can are the magic of rock n roll
Love it
Justin❤️
Yes, Justin is the soul of the MBs. He writes most of the music; he sings, and plays lead, and in later years, he was able to go out of his own and perform. I saw him just last April 2018 in Annapolis, Maryland. He was/is fantastic.
Ah ha! Ian Anderson wasn't the only dude playing flute at Isle of Wight!
When Ray passed, he wanted that job!
Delores, it was when Ray retired from the band in '02.
Not alot of 'tech' onstage here to sounds so amazing live.
Τέλειο!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this song
Those times front man Ray gave the essencial light clown balance to the too much serious melancholy men (Pinder, and specially Hayward)!
It's all about balance.
@@kennethlatham3133 it's a question ❓
had a tape of moody blues at rsainbow festival 1884 in Likely CA
it was a band... i always thought it was a hand of god
Great.
i never hear the moodys on classic fm radio anymore,but they play joan jett abd billy joel.
Not that it matters anymore but I was just thinking Ray should’ve played acoustic guitar while he wasn’t playing flute. It would’ve filled the sound out really nicely!
Kind of a bummer that the doc has “ Melancholy Man” twice; otherwise an outstanding post of historical significance.
I would say Hand of "God" too because they are heavenly
What happened to Parts 3 & 4 of this?
What a shame that when this was done for release the director didn't ask Ray for an interview. He interviewed everyone but Ray. What a jerk. And Ray does do interviews, he just was not ask. But he was invited to the Premier of this film in Hollywood. Strange.
the answer
to the question
what is the
purpose
of life...............
❤❤❤❤❤🌄🙏
STILL not in the rock n' roll hall of fame!
They made it a couple years ago.
