    His bass playing carries this song wonderfully. Big fan since ‘65 with Go Now.

    Yes, I agree. It's my favourite Moody Blues album. A clear, consistent concept, beginning, middle, end.

    If I HAD TO choose, this is my favorite song that John wrote. It sounds terrific in this live performance. I'm always impressed with the way the lush sound from the recordings is presented in live performances by the Moodies.

    We(My wife & I) saw John's Tour Show in Leeds (UK) Super show, brought back a few distant memories then, after the show, John & his partner came into the pub adjoining the theatre, so, what else could I do but buy him & his lady a drink?? Chatted for maybe half an hour..happy times. Then a few months later..Justin Hayward was in UK, went to see him too, in Darlington.

    I haven't seen a live show in person, but based on the videos I've seen, your live sound is excellent! Everything is mixed really well, and I love the prominence of the cello in particular. Additionally, your voice has aged really well!

    Wow! Who knew John could sing so well. A cello!! I am impressed. I didn't like the volume of the hard rock guitar. It was too loud. No one does the synth sound as well as Pinder did on the Mellotron.
