EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the swinging 60s when The Moody Blues, one of the era's most influential rock bands, decided to channel their inner gangsters for a memorable photoshoot on October 18th, 1967. Dressed in sharp suits and fedora hats, these talented musicians exude an air of mystery and rebellion as they pose together against a studio backdrop. From left to right, we have John Lodge on bass guitar, Justin Hayward taking center stage as lead guitarist and singer, Graham Edge behind the drums setting the rhythm ablaze, Mike Pinder skillfully playing the melophone with finesse, and Ray Thomas adding a touch of whimsy with his flute. This image captures not only their undeniable musical talent but also showcases their ability to embrace different personas beyond their music. It reflects the band's willingness to experiment artistically while maintaining their signature sound that would later define them as pioneers of progressive rock. Preserved by Carl Bruin at Memory Lane Prints, this photograph serves as a time capsule for fans of The Moody Blues and enthusiasts of 1960s music alike. It immortalizes a moment frozen in time when these five young men dared to step into character as gangsters while leaving an indelible mark on music history.
