The Moody Blues – Song of the week – July 18, 2011 – The Land Of Make-Believe

Rick Lowe

We saw The Moody Blues live in 1978 at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. That was the year they released Octave and Michael Pinder did not go on tour. He was replaced by Patrick Moraz, most notable for his stint with the band Yes.

So the line up for the concert we saw was Justin Hayward, John Lodge, Ray Thomas, Graeme Egde and Patrick Moraz.

The Moody Blues are simply amazing. Their 1967 release Days Of Future Passed with the fusion of rock and classical music remains a classic to this day, 44 years later.

Read the history of the band here… visit their web site here… and if you don’t have any of their albums/cd’s, shame on you. But you can resolve that easily by running out and buying them.

Hope you enjoy The Land Of Make-Believe from Seventh Sojourn, released in 1972, and you guessed it, their seventh release.
