have to say , I had the opportunity to see these preform live , absolutely incredible, I just love them , and they compete with Queen and Pink Floyd on every level , yet never got the acclaim that they so truly deserved.
@crankygang Dont know about Queen ( 2nd Division ), But I agree with you about their lack of acclaim. I have seen BJH live, and the Floyd. As you say, incredible, but this version does'nt really come upto the standard of their original studio version. Unlike floyd, who magically seem to do it ''bang on '' every time. Take Care Mate.
Yeh...What a tune...the original version from the `Gone to Earth` album...possibly one of they`re finest, along with `Time honoured ghosts`...RIP Woolly..sleep soundly..
At the concert in Holmfirth in 2009 Woolly took a good look at us the audience and said "we were the poor mans Moody Blues then" he paused and looked over his glasses at us all then went on" and I guess we still are" Miss you Woolly. BJH can never be the same without your humour and your real Mellotron class.
My older brother introduced me to BJH, I was the olny kid in school that ever heard of them, had to buy their albums in the Import section of the record store. Great to see this, brings me back.
Love it! Barclay James Harvest's "deconstruction version" of The Moody Blues' song "Nights In White Satin" (1967).
"Poor Man's Moody Blues" was written by John Lees in 1976. BJH recorded it to shame a certain Rolling Stone Rock Music critic after he wrote a criticism of BJH, in which he called them that disparaging name. It backfired on him, and became one of BJH's most-requested concert numbers for over 20 years. However, it does sound like the Moodies, doesn't it? Exactly the point!
thank you so much for posting this I just adore this song and videol and of course i do for i love the moody blues and the song nights in white satin. this song sends chills down my spine just like the original nights by the moodys. this is some fine guitar solo here!!!!!!! just wonderful. i love this immensely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great song but it does vaguely resemble "Nights in White Satin" - the joke was that this song was written after a critic dubbed them the "Poor Man's Moody Blues" get it
Diese, z.Zt. bei "YouTube" abspielbare Version kommt dem Original von 1977 auf der LP "Gone to Earth" noch am nächsten. - Ein TRAUMHAFTES Lied, das ich immer wieder gern höre!!!
Está en la historia de la música como una de las más bellas canciones de amor.
Prueba a bailarla abrazado a tu pareja y sentirás una placer infinito. Los ví en un concierto en el año 80 y desde entonces para mí están entre los más grandes.
One of the greater groups of the seventies that should have made it much bigger than they did - I remember them well but not as much as I do now - rock on BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST! This band should have been HUGE..
Some bands from that era soo deserved more fame ...Listen to the albums "REBIRTH" and "13th HOUR" by CONSORTIUM another band that should have been aclaimed.

Who says John Lees can't play ?! It's not brash , but a very sensitive solo. also, a very clever arrangement, paying homage to the original , whilst, IMHO, scoring a win against the critics.
Maybe the reason BJH were never that successful was that they were too subtle. For me their music will live on........great stuff.

Why did they choose to do a thinly valed cover of a Moody Blues tune? Either do it or not. Do the lyrics reveal anything about the reason behind it? They did it with the Bee Gees tune which kind of made sense, and I liked the original a lot anyway, but this is too much. I think it reveals their vocal inferiority to the Moody's a bit, as well.
because of their orchestral sound, bjh were often referred to as a poor mans mody blues, due to being less popular than the moodies at the time. This is a pastiche song, a knowing response to this fact. The moodies clocked up 7 top selling albums between 69 and 73ish. Bjh made about 3 in the same time. I think this is a clever tribute/acknowledgement. The album version is a better sounding version
@jimboid74 If the reason behind it is just a reaction to the claim that they're the "Poor Man's Moody Blues", I think it just solidifies that accusation by featuring vocals that are good, but don't come anywhere near the beauty of Hayward's voice, so what's the point? Do they think it's funny or ironic or something? I think it's pathetic.
But I wouldn't want to see the Moody Blues do "Medicine Man", either. The BJH version they do live is perfect the way it is, and no other singer could express that eeriness, and I like that song better than anything I can think of by The Moodies.
Now if I could just find the fucking studio version that was on the flip side of "Thank You".
@cathoderoy Actually BJH were paying homage to the moodies and BJH were mainly a 70s & 80s band. The Moodies mainly did their work in the 60s and early 70s. Although reformed they never had the success they had earlier.
Screw the visual, I don't care if it's a picture of Lady Gaga, if you can upload a good stereo version I'd be extremely grateful, I've been searching for one for decades.
Uh, sorry, got carried away, you only posted your message an hour ago....take your time. But seriously, the visuals don't matter to ME, at least, but it really is a song that would be very powerful with good images...go nuts!
@cathoderoy If you are interested, I have a copy on CD of the recoreded version of their live performance 1984 at Wembley. Send me a message/email with your email address and I will either send you a mp3 file or whatever format you prefer. Search for spmontgomery to find my details. Cheers. Shaun
To deagla, take your paranoid ramblings elsewhere. Nobody on this comments board wants to hear the utter garbage that you and your ilk are spouting. Find a nice, dark padded room somewhere and you can scream, mutter, rant and spew forth all the insane conspiracy theories you like where normal people will not be disturbed by you. If you cannot do that, I suggest you just keep quiet and listen to the music. Perhaps it can sooth the hysterical breast, not just the savage one.
@julia8968 You bet those good old days with no worries. Am from India now 54 and went to the University of New Delhi in early 70's. Another killer album was by Dire Straits- love over gold and of course jethro Tull.
Now trapped with mortgages, alimony support and health insurance bills. I think the time has come to spit out what I chewed more than I should have. Hey, there is always a way out.
great track; inspired so John Lees said , by the music press put down at the time, and the song was written to to " live up" ( or respond) to the tag they were given ; Brilliant! Great Band to see live, as many of you have said !
As you will see, I am the original moodies fan, but BJH deserve a great deal of respect too. The moodies were, and are, incomparable so it is unfair to suggest that BJH were a poor version. This song and the magnum opus that is 'Mockingbird' stand comparison with the very best of the Moody Blues. I sometimes wish that I had taken more notice of BJH in my young days. I have some catching up to do.
i was thirteen, and on my walkman gone to earth was my favourite tape.really fallen in love and this was our song..... cant forget it anymore..... it was a special time.... wont come back..........
I love this song, arguably their best. I used to sneekily listen to my Dad's prized BJH albums as a kid when he was at work and I still love them 30 years later!
BJH were dogged throughout their career with being labelled as an inferior version of the Moody Blues. This song is John Lees`s way of sticking 2 fingers up at his critics. This is a deliberate rework of Nights in White Satin by cleverly changing some of the chord sequences - but the music critics never really noticed!!
For your information: This song written by John Lees as a reaction of a presscomment like yours. In this comment BJH was compared with the moody blues and so called poor mans moody blues. For my opinion is this the better song like nights in white satin.
Ilive in Greenfileld and knew Mel persnally. I also met John Wooly and les and Ican assure you they wiuld be first to admit that they are big fans of the Moody BlueIjoked on a regular basis about the influence that the Moodies had had on them. I also have a signed copy of `Once Again` and 6 other BJH albums
Seriously boring music. He seems to be suffering from too many chins. The other guitarist looks as though he's just off a horror film set. Absolutely no threat to the Moody Blues.
very good, great band...you cant compare the Moody blues with BJH.Two great bands and so many great songs,..if you listen to the Mbs,...you,ll find songs to the equal or as beautiful.
Far better than anything the Moody Blues ever did...BJH always underated....they gave birth to my 'first love'...Anne/Galadriel...thanks so much for the video.
(suite)... yes... the 80s were not good for rock n roll... so many great bands fell in that plastic drum style of sound...Money and Reagan were back at the command...that s what happened (uhm so why do i have those Foreigner records in my collection?...glouppps!)
yes its their best!...the follow up to going to earth 'XII' in 78 is nearly as good... all their 70s album are interesting ...after Z departure of Wooly the band loose a little bit of his complexity and depth. Their next albums "Eyes of the Universe"(79)& "Turn of the Tide"(81) were goin in a more FM radio direction...it loss a bit of magic... but the band was stillgood enough...with good guitar parts...& some good rests of their recent 70s glory... then...i say no...it was the synthetic 80s!

Obwohl Hymn ein Lieblingslied ist, habe ich den Moody Blues immer mehr geliebt, seit er vor über 20 Jahren rauskam :-) Kann Heute noch dabei heulen !!!
Where are all great Brittish lovers of old fashionned Brittish music (Moody Blues were also pure Brittish)? that is one of the most unexpacted songs of BJH
Was für ein großartiger Song bei dem Erinnerungen an eine unbeschwerte Jugend hochkommen mit den ersten Schieber Partys mit einem nievergessenen Mädchen.
Oh, the teen angst I felt listening to this in the 1970s! Wonderful memories of a simple life when the music and the album sleeves were exciting on their own without all the technology! And we survived very well without mobile phones! Love the instrumental - real emotion, real feeling. Try that, indie bands!
sorry I didn't to sound so rude! what I meant was that (as the title suggests) BJH are here paying tribute to the moody blues quite deliberately, rather than just copying them. that's how i see it anyway, and i've loved this tune for many years :-)
But if it's using the style same chords and same emotions as Justin, don't it just become the rip off?
I think we honour too much this song by calling it tribute or eulogy, imho
Even if you feel emotion from memories of back in the day, the sentiment of the song's writer John Lee was one of cynicism not honnest poetic thinking
I agree entirely with 'angrysamoan666', it is a copy of Justin's Hayward's masterpiece. What I can't understand about John Lees is that he does the same with Beatles' tracks. Why ? He is a brilliant songwriter, why does he need to pinch other peoples songs / lyrics ?
Hypnotic!

I saw them at the Corn Exchange in Cambridge in 1976. It was unfashionable to like them BEFORE punk, let alone afterwards. But I did.

I love the Moody Blues but these guys are no poor mans version.
This song is simply amazing and sung with feeling.
I recommend the whole Gone To Earth album from which this song is taken.

BJH were dogged throughout their career with being labelled as an inferior version of the Moody Blues. This song is John Lees`s way of sticking 2 fingers up at his critics. This is a deliberate rework of Nights in White Satin by cleverly changing some of the chord sequences - but the music critics never really noticed!!

For your information: This song written by John Lees as a reaction of a presscomment like yours. In this comment BJH was compared with the moody blues and so called poor mans moody blues. For my opinion is this the better song like nights in white satin.

Ilive in Greenfileld and knew Mel persnally. I also met John Wooly and les and Ican assure you they wiuld be first to admit that they are big fans of the Moody BlueIjoked on a regular basis about the influence that the Moodies had had on them. I also have a signed copy of `Once Again` and 6 other BJH albums

Seriously boring music. He seems to be suffering from too many chins. The other guitarist looks as though he's just off a horror film set. Absolutely no threat to the Moody Blues.

These wimpy prog pretenders really couldn't wipe the moody blues collective ass, although they have probably tried for spare change.

(suite)... yes... the 80s were not good for rock n roll... so many great bands fell in that plastic drum style of sound...Money and Reagan were back at the command...that s what happened (uhm so why do i have those Foreigner records in my collection?...glouppps!)

yes its their best!...the follow up to going to earth 'XII' in 78 is nearly as good... all their 70s album are interesting ...after Z departure of Wooly the band loose a little bit of his complexity and depth. Their next albums "Eyes of the Universe"(79)& "Turn of the Tide"(81) were goin in a more FM radio direction...it loss a bit of magic... but the band was stillgood enough...with good guitar parts...& some good rests of their recent 70s glory... then...i say no...it was the synthetic 80s!

Oh, the teen angst I felt listening to this in the 1970s! Wonderful memories of a simple life when the music and the album sleeves were exciting on their own without all the technology! And we survived very well without mobile phones! Love the instrumental - real emotion, real feeling. Try that, indie bands!

The point is to copy Moody Blues?
I also can copy people,
Thank u for this information, imho
angrysamoan666 3 years ago
sorry I didn't to sound so rude! what I meant was that (as the title suggests) BJH are here paying tribute to the moody blues quite deliberately, rather than just copying them. that's how i see it anyway, and i've loved this tune for many years :-)
slowhandwatcher 3 years ago
But if it's using the style same chords and same emotions as Justin, don't it just become the rip off?
I think we honour too much this song by calling it tribute or eulogy, imho
Even if you feel emotion from memories of back in the day, the sentiment of the song's writer John Lee was one of cynicism not honnest poetic thinking

Nights in White Satin is a quite inventive song
It's not a succession of cliches
To my opinion, this song of BJH rapes the Justin metaphor and brings nothing of its own, imho
BJH is the Jayne Mansfield to Justin's Marylin
angrysamoan666 3 years ago
I agree entirely with 'angrysamoan666', it is a copy of Justin's Hayward's masterpiece. What I can't understand about John Lees is that he does the same with Beatles' tracks. Why ? He is a brilliant songwriter, why does he need to pinch other peoples songs / lyrics ?
