Just watched the Moody Blues 2017 Toronto Concert on Sky Arts
I bought, or rather got my parents to get me a copy of the the LP purely on the hearing of "Knights" in 1967..
At first I was disappointed, too much "Classical" stuff but over the years much of the music has stayed with me through all my musical preferences, from Classic FM to Planet Rock to Transatlantic Sessions.
The Toronto concert was recorded in 2017, John Lodge's voice was struggling Justin Hayward was OK if you accept the high notes were a struggle, heck, they're even older than me and I couldn't hit those notes 50 years ago.

Buggrit.

Would have liked to see that. Hope they put it on again.

Been a Moodies fan since about 1969.

Saw Justin Hayward in concert in Birmingham last September and he was still pretty good.

DOFP: Surely the first ever concept album?

Also the first ever progressive album?

I think Frank Sinatra had quite a few concept albums before that.
