I found this on one of my Mom's CD's. When I think "Moody Blues" I think "soft rock," I think "Crosby." But as it turns out, they burst onto the scene in 1964 with their version of this song, and it's awesome. It's old-school brit-pop of the best sort, and I've been listening to it nonstop for the last week or so. I doubt I'm unearthing a forgotten gem here; after all, it was a #1 single in the UK. But I hadn't heard it, so maybe some of you haven't yet, either. Enjoy, this post is mainly to add a little roughage to the next week or so's posts, which will contain almost entirely very long psychedelic rock.
Yes, this is much different than their later stuff. Denny Laine (who sings this song) later recorded with Paul McCartney in Wings. Thanks!

Actually, at least during the Wings Over America tour 30 years ago, they did this song with Denny Laine on vocals. I saw them at MSG back then and I think you can find the song on the 3 disc set of the tour.

In fact, on this album (I believe) there is that beautiful song "Boulevard de la Madeleine", (long forgotten, though), and this is the direction they went afterwards...

WhWhat's the difference between jazz and blues as according to music theory?
Politically, blues reacts in the same manner as folk in the sense that it tends to represent the economic and social frustrations of the lower-class. In my opinion, blues is more representative of the working-class and destitute in contrast to mostly conformist melodies of jazz. Now that we know the differences in a political sense, I want to know how jazz differs from the blues as according to music theory.

How to greatly reduce overall sound of drums?
I live in an apartment and play the drums. When I practice I really tick off the neighbors bc as you know drums are really loud. Anyone have any ideas how to greatly reduce the sound besides buying a drum shield?

The Moody Blues formed on 4 May 1964, in Erdington, Birmingham, England. Ray Thomas, John Lodge, and Michael Pinder had been members of El Riot & the Rebels. They disbanded when Lodge, the youngest member, went to technical college and Michael Pinder joined the army. Michael Pinder then rejoined Thomas to form the Krew Cats. The pair recruited guitarist/vocalist Denny Laine, band manager-turned-drummer Graeme Edge, and bassist Clint Warwick.

Man has had an urge to satisfy his needs.Probably this might be the reason why we human are the most developed of all living species on the earth, and probably also in the universe. Do you think so? Posed By Juicy Couture Handbags

You can't put an animal raised in captivity, in it's alleged natural habitat. I bet so much money this chick wouldn't last in the wild for more than 5 days.
If she didn't take herself so seriously, this could be a funny piece of performance, but instead it's kind of embarrassing.

Absolutely agree with what you reported. Your explanation was by far the easiest to comprehend. I tell you, I usually get annoyed when folks discuss issues that they clearly do not know about. You managed to hit the nail right on the head and rolled out everything without complication. Hopefully, other people can take a cue. Will be back for additional. Keep writing

Do not get your girls wear a plain white bridesmaid dress on stage in order to avoid distracting.
