In 1970 The Moody Blues were at their creative and commercial peak. After reinventing themselves from their R&B roots to a much more sophisticated sound, between 1967 and 1970 they released five albums, four of which hit the Top 5 in the UK with two of them going to No.1. They enjoyed similar success in the USA where four of the albums hit the Top 20 and the other was just outside. At the end of August 1970, shortly after the release of their album A Question Of Balance, The Moody Blues took to the stage of the Isle Of Wight Festival in front of an audience estimated at over half a million.
This DVD makes that performance available to be seen for the first time.
It features tracks from their best selling albums: Days Of Future Passed, In Search Of The Lost Chord, On The Threshold Of A Dream, To Our Childrens Childrens Children and A Questiuon Of Balance.
Includes the classic hit singles Nights In White Satin and Questions.

Best Moody Blues song ever.

"All the world astounds me, and I think"...I'll never understand how 8 people could click on the Moody Blues intentionally, and dislike this! Fabulous!

Why is it that the Moodies are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, It is sad that one of the greatest rock bands are treated this way!! I saw the Moody Blues july 29, 2009 and am waiting for them to come back to seattle area! As for the people saying British, American or Canadian stop that and all get along, the moodies bring us all together!!

@kiwipreacher i agree a song of non duality i wonder if they even realized it at the time. i think they did

@andrewbarrett42 I sure as hell like the Brits. We fought with them against Germany in WWII and against Sadam Hussein & the Taliban & al Qaida. Plus you gave us the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Moody Blues, Supertramp, etc. etc. etc. God Save the Queen!

@55k3v1n Yes I love the 60s but moody blues are not one of my favourates.i,m a Beatles fan.

Canadians love Americans,but I do know that they both do not like us Brits as I have been to both countries.

[55k3v1n]

@andrewbarrett42 ...and what does that have to do with the Moody Blues? I very much like America. Anti-American Canadians are stupid. Moody Blues are a great British band, if you like progressive rock.

[andrewbarrett42]

@55k3v1n Canadians are just American wanabee,s.

[55k3v1n]

@andrewbarrett42 Every person I know had the "This is the Moody Blues" best of album. It's hard to get a copy now (I found one in Toronto). Each song blends into the next and it's hard to imagine someone not loving it. But maybe you are a headbanger, which would explain your comment.
