The version Ray Thomas did at Red Rocks live was a lot longer flute solo

R. I. P. Mr. Ray Thomas....absolutely genius.

The definitive live version of this is on a recording called the The other of red rocks where there is an extended flute solo. Incredible!

Ian Anderson has said he was inspired by Ray Thomas (RIP). The album version has a much longer flute performance. Also their Red Rocks performance has this song with a long flute solo. I believe he was unwell by this time.

Very fine fluting! Wish there was more. 👍

Oooohhh my heart!!!! You picked "Legend of a Mind"! Ray Thomas (RIP) is a horribly underrated musician! He and The Moody Blues, are who inspired me to take up the flute! And I learned the (at least the first) flute part to this song by ear! And partially "Voices In The Sky" My goal is to learn Ray's flute parts from the more famous "Nights In White Satin, "Dear Diary", "Are You Sitting Comfortably?", "Isn't Life Strange", and "Dawning Is The Day".

Nice! "There you go, man Keep as cool as you can Face piles of trials with smiles It riles them to believe That you perceive the web they weave And keep on thinking free” -Michael Pinder from “In the Beginning”

I like your reaction.

I like your reactions. Thanks!

First time I saw Timothy Leary, in Charlotte, this song was playing while he was peeking around the curtain before speaking. Years later he signed my book and we chatted. Love this song. "Om" is also very groovy from this album. Let's see what ye thinks...

Great reaction, very interesting insight on the song, great video, but the studio version is really good.

@@ClaireHoldich Thank you.

I lived in a WestCoast drug cult (BrotherhoodOfEternalLove) back in the late '60s, and they hosted Leary for a crazy wk-long party. Those were the daze! This is a very nice live version, but nothing like the much more psychedelic studio original, imo... (Though it does kick in beginning with the flutiful instrumental.) You should check it out to compare Claire!

Thanks for that Fred and yes, that's a great idea. Wishing you a most flutifull day! 😄🙏

This version of the song is significantly faster pace then the album version. Personally I prefer the album version, it lets the music pick you up, this one seems like the music is thrown at you.

This was overall their best concert, but the middle passage with the flute solo has been chopped way down. I'd suggest sometime that you see another live version, or the studio version with the extended middle passage. It's amazing!

@@ClaireHoldich Sure! Ray Thomas was an amazing flute player, and it really shone on that song. He passed away around 6 years ago. RIP. Oh, and Graeme Edge, the drummer passed away even more recently. The other three original guys are still around, doing their own thing.
