1 of the greatest but under rated bands of all time. Love this album. Listening 2 this song brings back memories of many "trips" of which I returned the same day....or nite.
@siobob1 Why is that amazing re: their music? We still listen 2 Bach, Brahms, I'd say more but I can't spell them, y not them? Perfectly made music is continuously shared over the span of time & never 4gotten. Neither will their music. My children & grankids know the Moody Blues' music.
I'm not looking to see from a freed spirit point of veiw though my heart still beats down there for me to return! I could "dig" on a power that might suggest the ability to levitate a subject..no Abduct!..Fox! Rock's Czar! The Moody Blues R Greater than a need to be in some Hall of Fame as though dead..no..Deceased! Rock n Roll!..Me too dude..Me Too!.."I" Want. To See True Glimpses of REALITY/in our Future! (en not it's excuses of nearly 15 trillion in DEBT and 'Still In Aurthority over me!)
Love the old Moodies! But these guys today are artistically bankrupt!!! They are as bad as what Rush became. RAY AND MIKE.....PLEASE COME BACK! {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{PLEASE}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} (by the way ray...you hit a grand slam with this song. The best song the band ever did and the best one you ever wrote. Great job!)
"In Search of the Lost Chord" = simply one of THE best albums of all time! The Moody Blues = simply one of THE best bands of all time! Period. ("F" the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.)
saw them live 2 years ago, they are as dynamic now as then. it was a little strange sitting there with several thousand 60+ yr odls, feeling buzzed on diet coke!!
i remember my brother showed me this song for the first time when i was 9 and od'd on my anti-seizure meds and started hallucinating in the middle of the night. the intense bridge part with the flute is still as crazy hearing it now as it as the first time.
@MoodyGirl67 ...I just saw the Moodies tonight in Vegas. Well, it was Justin, John, and Graeme, with some extra musicians. But still, what an incredible show it was. If you get a chance to see this tour, you won't regret it. Of course, it's different without Ray Thomas and Michael Pinder...but nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the concert. Peace, MoodyGirl67.
@MoodyGirl67 ...ps...and he's the group's flautist? Yes, I do believe the show will be extremely lacking without Ray. It'll be interesting to see how the guys make up for his absence.
@MoodyGirl67 ...Granted. But, unfortunately my dear, Ray's retired. Some websites claim he's dead. I will get to see the Moodies in present day form play at the Hard Rock Hotel this Friday, May 13, 2011. Yes, I wish Ray Thomas was with them, as he certainly was/is an important founding member. I'll post a sort of "review" of the live show in less than a week. But seriously, I can't wait til this Friday!!!!
Back when I was growing up, I was a strange kid, Id listen to Green Day and all that, but equally, I loved the Moodies, Yes, etc. One day I was hanging around with a few friends who were into modern rock, very narrow minded, and I sang this. I was suprised to find that, later that night they all asked me for the song title, they all then downloaded the song and LOVED it. They all sang the lyrics for months.
Leary was an agent of the Tavistock institute. MK-ULTRA. CIA shipped LSD onto the streets of youth. promoted bands like beatles and moody blues. Hippie movement created by Tavistock mind control agency, through funding of criminal banks. they wanted that generation blown away (internally scrambled). MK-ULTRA/CIA/TAVISTOCK.
pretty well thought out song .... don'tcha think? ......... i got high listening to it ..... without drugs .,.... cause ......... i didn't take them ... cigarettes were bad enough .... smokeless for 11 years now ...... 3rd. time quit ...... and am 58 as of 4-18-11 .... so, no excuse that you can't quit ...... CAUSE YA CAN, IF YA WANT TO!
I had my dad rewind this song over and over (other than Pink Floyd's Another Brink In The Wall Part 2 and The Beatles Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds) in the car when ever we went out!!! I was 5 years old by the way (1986). :P

yeah sgold, but drop some acid and this song will give you full body orgasms.
Before anyone says acid destroys your life pause for a moment and remember who the song is about. Go read Dr. Leary's bio and then come back and post it, if you still can.
help! i'm trying to find a song that ray thomas sings- it's soft and pretty about butterlfies and springtime or something. i saw it first on you tube, but can't find it now. it had a pretty video of outside springtime things. anyone know???
We can all be outside ~ Looking In, unfortunately most of us occasionally get outside, but few take the tie or expend the effort to look within and therefore seldom understand what is to be learned from that view point or perspective. The trip(s) do not require LSD or any other artificial assistance, they only require that one step outside and then look inside the shell of our physical existence to see what is there. Thinking is after all "The Best Way to Travel" along that route.
The Moody Blues were as they stated, "Just a Singer(s) in a Rock and Roll Band". They did for some however provide a map of at least one method to begin to understand who we were and how we could pass through the human journey from Birth through Growth to Self Realization to Death and then Transfiguration. They were helpful in the early 70's and 80's as the world came crashing down for those if us who believed we could actually avoid war, hunger and mans inhumanity to man. Peace...
@TheHawkeyemark Hey Slider. See you are really a fan. The 'House of 4 Doors' is before this. One thing acid showed me was once you open that door you can never get the sense of wonder you did on the original opening. My problem was trying to find that sense of wonder again. I wondered why but now I know. Like God, once you discover the Divine you can't get the wonder of the first time back- like love, can be matched but never bettered.
Very interesting film clip from early '68 although not a very exciting or imaginative one from the director for this particular track, which is brilliant and from a brilliant album released in July of that year
The power of the human mind and potential has been limited by the society it creates. We are mired in war, inequity, and the constant threat of breakdown. Cooperation is the key. Now compromise on the drug policy when it comes to LSD may never see such a level of cooperation, but maybe one day when bigger problems are solved it might be possible. Create peaceful societies, and self exploration through hallucinogens, and cannabis would seem highly probable.

Okay Timothy Leary was getting **** from the military as they wanted to find out what they did from adventurous Hippies etc...
They found that giving them to soldiers without their consent just freaked them out..
I had a taste of some very wonderful variants when I befriended A Mister Owsley at the Boots and Saddles in LaHonda. We went across the creek to Keasys' house. Little ole me in Merry Pranksters Land
I would assume that the Shulgins of Berkeley were involved.
Close your eyes. Look at the speckles of light and colour on the outside, or is it inside of your mind, or is it your soul? This is what it's all about....never mind the imagination..........
timothy leary's dead he did that book politics of extacy i could not make head or tail of it. now the moody blues among some of the time had a bad reputation as just a pop band then they went on and did all this amazing music and blew a lot of minds too me i was triping and having a groove far out moodys for ever.
Thimothy Leary is not a guru of LSd..... He only try to open our mind in un using LSD !! I tried it many years ago, and i think so, everything change around me and nothing wil be same before !!!
Who knows? Everyone was pretty much tripping in those days and it's not much different today....except the drugs of today are totally deadly and the sense of things is different...and so the music is different. Personally I think todays music is mostly shit. I'm glad I was there back then. I think it was a far better day ...even though there were all kinds of problems of course. Thank god for the invention of film and sound...this stuff will still be good 2000 years from now if man survives.
This video looks like it was filmed at 'Millbrook', a Victorian mansion about 80 miles North of NYC where Dr. Leary lived & worked with a number of his students in the mid. 1960's.
OMG! That's too funny. I never thought of it that way. And now I'm never going to be able to listen to this song again without thinking of Timothy Leary as a stalker peeking in my window.
@clotho98 No no no no.. this was not the stalker generation. Nobody's dad who grew up with this stuff is thinking other than cosmic thoughts when they proclaim that "Timothy Leary is outside looking in."
@PICKLETREE I do wonder. That track takes me back with all its Who like changes of pace. I didn't understand it at all when first heard on the Dansette record player but knew that there were inner landscapes to explore. Such were the late 60s for me.I too still quote the line, Timothy Leary's Dead....Thanks for that. ps I made good friends recently with Nick Turner (Hawkwind) xxx audleynick@tiscali.co.uk
@mYpAsSwOrD0192837465 It took me a while to understand this song, too, and my dad never really told me what it was about, so I had to look it up. I missed the 60s (I'm only 21), but I love this bit of that generation (the Moody Blues, that is, not the drugs and whatnot). My dad lived through this time, and because he loves these guys so much, I grew up listening to them and loving them, too.
I'm not familiar with Hawkwind, but that's still pretty cool!
"The lyrics refer to when Leary left the U.S. for Switzerland for his outspoken views concerning altering ones conciousness with drugs."
this is not true. leary fled to switzerland in 1971. he left the united states after escaping from prison where he was in year one of a ten year sentence he received in 1970.
Ahead of their time, they were!!

Timothy Leary wrote the book: Varieties of Psychedelic Experience based upon the Tibetan Book of the Dead. (required reading for the enlightened.)

Great Song! I had the chance to meet Tim Leary in the early '90s... What a mind! I can tell you that he really is "Outside looking in!"

Leary was broken out of prison by the Weather Underground and rescued to Algeria. Really pissed the FBI off.

To this day, my dad will randomly walk into a room and announce "Timothy Leary's dead...no, no, no, no He's outside...looking in."
Love it.

OMG! That's too funny. I never thought of it that way. And now I'm never going to be able to listen to this song again without thinking of Timothy Leary as a stalker peeking in my window.

@clotho98 No no no no.. this was not the stalker generation. Nobody's dad who grew up with this stuff is thinking other than cosmic thoughts when they proclaim that "Timothy Leary is outside looking in."

@PICKLETREE I do wonder. That track takes me back with all its Who like changes of pace. I didn't understand it at all when first heard on the Dansette record player but knew that there were inner landscapes to explore. Such were the late 60s for me.I too still quote the line, Timothy Leary's Dead....Thanks for that. ps I made good friends recently with Nick Turner (Hawkwind) xxx audleynick@tiscali.co.uk

@mYpAsSwOrD0192837465 It took me a while to understand this song, too, and my dad never really told me what it was about, so I had to look it up. I missed the 60s (I'm only 21), but I love this bit of that generation (the Moody Blues, that is, not the drugs and whatnot). My dad lived through this time, and because he loves these guys so much, I grew up listening to them and loving them, too.
I'm not familiar with Hawkwind, but that's still pretty cool!

"The lyrics refer to when Leary left the U.S. for Switzerland for his outspoken views concerning altering ones conciousness with drugs."
this is not true. leary fled to switzerland in 1971. he left the united states after escaping from prison where he was in year one of a ten year sentence he received in 1970.

The Moody Blues!
They were like the Camp Councilors of the Psychedelic set. Always there with a good word and some lushly sensual sounds to soothe a troubled mind.
And then we'd listen to....UMMAGUMMA!
