NEW 📀 Ride My See Saw - Moody Blues {Stereo} 1968

1968......#61 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #42 UK Singles Chart
LP version with "Departure" intro.
Original video edited and remastered with HQ stereo sound.
"Ride My See-Saw" is a 1968 single by the English progressive rock band the Moody Blues. It was written by the band's bassist John Lodge, and was first released on the Moody Blues' 1968 album In Search of the Lost Chord. It was the second of two singles from that album, the other being "Voices in the Sky".
Billboard described the single as a "blockbuster rocker" that "comes on strong with all the ingredients to spiral [the Moody Blues] to the top in short order" and a "mover from start to finish." Cash Box called it a "dance track with powerful teen attraction" and "polished vocals."

    Graeme Edge in his prime was a monster. But playing like that is a younger man's game. I saw the Moody Blues on tour around the time that "Live at Red Rocks" came out, and there were two drummers. Graeme Edge was on one kit, and another nameless fellow was helping him. He still had the beat, but by the 1990's, he was already too old to play a few of the songs he'd played in his youth. I went to the concert when I was somewhere around age 30 myself, and having been born in 1965, I was just old enough to remember as a kid when their music was all over the airwaves. My date was a few years younger (although still GenX), and that slight difference was enough that when I asked her, she said, "The Moody Who?" By the end of the concert, she had to admit that she'd missed a few things for being born in the early 1970's. I was also amused when she asked for my binoculars. (We had lawn seats, way back.) Her comment: "That singer looks really cute, and I want a closer look." Whatever Justin Hayward had in 1968 as a twenty-something, he still had it in about 1992 as a forty-something. Or so thought my date, who could have been his daughter.

Little did I know at the time how he'd come to embrace the band. My brother remained a Moody's fan up until the moment of his untimely passing at age 47 a little under 13 years ago. He would go to see the Moody Blues anywhere within a 300-mile radius of home. My dear, dear brother.

    sorry to interrupt, but I would not say they are one of the most famous of all rock bands, they are famous and very well known but that is where it stops, unfortunately. Also, what does knowing music history have to do with the rating of a band? IMHO, the Moody Blues are very underrated simply because they do not get enough mention or airplay. The airplay they get is either the Denny Laine period, generally epitomised by just one song "Go Now", or the post Denny Laine period, generally epitomise by one song "Nights in White Satin" (with now and again, as a token gesture, one of the their other pieces of genius being thrown in). Underrated they definitely are, IMHO!

I remember my uncle, who was a Vietnam veteran and wounded terribly during Tet, putting in an 8-Track of the Beatles White album and saying, “Tommy, this is the greatest rock and roll band ever” while we were driving down an Ohio interstate. I must have been four or five. My Mom liked the Moody Blues as well as Carrol King and the Turtles. What a great time for music.
