Moody Blues - Tuesday Afternoon -Jay Leno Tonight Show

[ellen672]

Their East Coast tour starts soon, I wonder if they'll hit any of the talk shows again.

[mobrules29]

Standing O says it all.

[MrMGA]

It takes an entire orchestra to replace Mike Pinder on the mellotron.,,,

[alittlepale]

MoodyJill-you continue to blow me away with what you find. How many bands would drag half an orchestra to appear on Leno? Only the legendary Moodies-and I miss Ray (though Norda is fantastic).

[131IQ]

Last time I saw them was in 1992 Harrahs, Lake Tahoe, NV. Best Moody Blues show I ever saw. The stage, the orchestra, the back up singers, the band all looked and perfomed phenomenomally. This band is one of my all time favorites and you can tell they love performing for their fans. When Justin sings it's as if he is singing just to you.

[crumbtrey]

True, legendary band brought richness to my life all through the years.

[justdeepblue]

Love 'em ! Thanks so much!

[Sutterjack]

Ah the beauty of the early Moody Blues music----why did they go off the deep end after they reunited and come out with all the overproduced crap in the last couple of year?

[moodybluezer]

Yup, I remember seeing this on TV that night.. I remember the song, yes, btu I've seen it so many times they run together. But I remember the interview question about the guy with the leg.

It was so great.

[carvs66]

The Moody Blues have moved way above/ahead of the R&R Hall of Fame. The HOF could save no face by inducting them now. It would almost be a joke. Great clip!

[bikolee]

And John had been alive. When was it George died?

[Starrman69]

Ahh, Ray Thomas was still with them for this appearance. Great Band!! Justin, John and Graeme are still out there performing. Hall of Fame doesn't know talent, especially with some of those people they allowed in. The Moody Blues should have been in YEARS AGO!!

[Bancroft98]

the people who elect Hall of Fame acts should get off the crack pipe! This group has paid their dues!!

[Yngwulff]

nice!

[musicadegigi]

funny story at the end....... so funny how justin told the story.....

[spalf73]

Wow, Justins voice still as good

[wregerg1]

yea they sound amazing still have it and are still touring this song has always stirred deep emotions inside of me that i might not have known where there took me away and painted a picture of piece in my mind breath taking truly breath taking it stands on its own and has always been my favorite above nights in white satin but i have grown to love nights in white satin over the years as well

[JabberCT]

The Hall of fame lacks The Moody Blues, Rush, and Heart = That should be considered as crimes against humanity.

But LL Cool J got right in. Ya know, because of the decades of hits he produced.... PFFFFFFFFFFT!!

[doula2010]

Wow-thanks for bringing up the headphones because I thought mine were

broken. I don't think the vocals were that great because it was recorded off

of an analoge TV. Anyhow-agree with everyone about the Hall of Fame.

These guys really deserve their own special category. I truly believe that

they saved the sanity of many guys who were drafted into the Vietnam War

and came home to still more insanity. Teenagers in high school these days

can not imagine what it was like then -the draft into war.

[psalmsurfer1]

Gerry Garcia on drums...

[Morgana888]

Thank you for this. As always, the guys look grand! My headphones couldn't pick both sides. Only the right ear played. Did anyone encounter this? Again, thanks~ Janet

[seaslipper1]

justin's mike needs to be louder

amazing how he hits the notes on a live perf.

[rrip1]

@moodybluepassions These guys have been selling out arenas since I was 4, now I'm 47, with no end in sight. And they aren't in the hall of fame. Brittney Spears will probably get inducted somehow before they will. I could go on all night. but I think you get my point. I guess I'm preaching to the choir. I'm glad you have such good taste in music.

[rrip1]

@moodybluepassions I'm surprised Kelly Clarkson hasn't been inducted yet.

[rrip1]

@moodybluepassions Thank you moodybluepassions for agreeing with me. And to top it all off, they aren't in the Hall Of Fame, but who is? Joan Jett and her 3 songs are. Unbelievable.

[rrip1]

@moodybluepassions Thank you, I was hoping at least one person would agree. Calling them pop singers would be comparing them to Lady CaCa and all of the other pop acts that suck.

[rrip1]

Unfortunately, Jay referred to them as pop legends. There is only 1 band similar to

The Moody Blues; Pink Floyd. Neither of whom are in the class of pop music. I think their music would be called "The Moody Blues" and "Pink Floyd".

[Grifiki]

"Finally Leno lost his Lip!"

[pegster6]

Hubby and I (and a bunch of Moody friends) were there in the audience, after standing all day in line! This was an incredible night. Then we all converged on Vegas for more shows at Caesars and our wedding on the 25th :-) Lifelong memories, this video makes it even better!

[Zippertheslipper]

That was very fascinating to see and the story told by Justin was very funny indeed. The Moodies rule and deserve to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, what do you say folks, let's hear it.

[Gipsymom]

They are all gorgeous! Justin is a golden one to look at, but they all have that special something. Their music is simply timeless. Kids today could learn a few lessons from this MUSIC, as opposed to the junk they listen to which has absolutely no melody and atrocious words that pass for lyrics.

[niknakatak]

A wonderful treat with a full house on stage (not to mention those full heads of hair!).

[alienhuman]

This is where the Beatles would have been in '95 if they had continued.

[MyPaulHenry]

@alienhuman I am sorry to disagree. John and the others did not want to play their classics. They felt dead about it. I respect a composer's fancy. But I listen 98% to those that perform their classics as they get older.

[eener66]

My goodness JH looks great!!

[555pontifex]

Excellent group. Thanks for uploading.

[lcr1955]
