I really enjoyed this documentary. I have watched it twice now and it was a wonderful walk down memory lane for me. I hope it will be for fans of our music.
Yes, the sound quality is not always great and occasionally we are even out of tune (wish we had auto-tune in those days), but I think you will enjoy seeing us perform live at the Isle of Wight playing the music we created for you!
The interviews with director Murray Lerner should add to your understanding of the band and in my opinion the only thing missing are comments from my buddies Ray Thomas and Tony Clarke. We all had an individual perspective on the music we created, the message and how we feel about it today.
We did and can continue to chance our world through music, love and action!

Eagle Rock Entertainment, will release The Moody Blues: Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival 1970 on DVD for the first time May 26.
This is the legendary much talked-about 79-minute 11-song performance that The Moody Blues—at the height of their popularity and creative powers—totally entranced the hippie audience with on a hot night in August off the coast of England.Bonus material includes a 20-minute documentary keying in on the behind-the-scenes machinations that took place before, during and after this remarkable event.
This historic set of Classic Rock stands complete and unexpurgated as performed by guitarist/vocalist Justin Hayward, bassist/vocalist John Lodge, vocalist/flutist Ray Thomas, drummer Graeme Edge and keyboardist/vocalist Mike Pinder. Touring in support of A Question Of Balance album, The Moody Blues, at this point in time, had had four albums all in the Top 5 U.K. (with two #1s). The audience on this night topped half a million. It was an era that will never be duplicated.
