Listener comments!
	🥁 ♥ 3:01pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry.
	🥁 ♥ 3:02pm Funky16Corners: Brian!
	🥁 ♥ 3:04pm Brian in UK: I remember must have been Jan/Feb '65. I bought or was bought for me (pre paper round!) Go Now! & You've Lost that Lovin' Feeling. Think I was eleven.
	3:04pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Greetings, and WOW!
	🥁 ♥ 3:05pm Funky16Corners: Hey Vincent!
	🥁 ♥ 3:05pm Brian in UK: Denny Laine's voice and then Bobby & Bill's voices were a door to another world.
	🥁 ♥ 3:05pm Funky16Corners: @Brian - I remember the first time I heard Go Now on an oldies station as a kid and had a hard time reconciling it with the Moody Blues I knew
	🥁 ♥ 3:07pm dutchtheo: Hello, Larry, and moody testifiers, love this Bessie Banks!
	🥁 ♥ 3:07pm Brian in UK: Larry, still does. It was not until I listened to FMU that I realised how big the Moodies were in America.
	🥁 ♥ 3:07pm Funky16Corners: Hey Theo!
	🥁 ♥ 3:08pm Funky16Corners: @Brian - Their post-67 stuff was huge on FM radio, but I was surprised to discover how many of their early 45s charted in regional pockets all over the US
	3:10pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Love!
	🥁 ♥ 3:12pm Brian in UK: Larry, s'funny how many R'nB bands over here suddenly grew their hair & became psychedlic. You could almost carbon date it!
	🥁 ♥ 3:13pm Erica: Hi Testifiers! Sorry for the late entry.
	🥁 ♥ 3:15pm WR: Grogan in a mosh pit?
	🥁 ♥ 3:17pm Brian in UK: Oh YES
	🥁 ♥ 3:17pm Funky16Corners: Hey Erica! WR!
	🥁 ♥ 3:17pm Funky16Corners: @WR - Oh yeah, but of course this was a much younger Grogan, in his 20s and full of what the old folks used to call "piss and vinegar"
	🥁 ♥ 3:20pm Jeff Ash: Late to the party, but hello from Wisconsin!
	🥁 ♥ 3:20pm Brian in UK: Larry, pedants corner, the Moodies added a ! to Go Now!
	🥁 ♥ 3:20pm Funky16Corners: @Brian at 3:12 - Oh yeah, and in the UK so many of them were brilliant!
	🥁 ♥ 3:21pm Funky16Corners: @Brian - You're right! I never noticed.
	🥁 ♥ 3:21pm Funky16Corners: Fixed it!
	🥁 ♥ 3:24pm Funky16Corners: Wild, volume-pedal guitar solo in this one
	🥁 ♥ 3:29pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Good day, Larry and Testifiers!
	🥁 ♥ 3:29pm Funky16Corners: Hopey!
	🥁 ♥ 3:30pm Funky16Corners: This pre-Moodys Justin Hayward
	🥁 ♥ 3:33pm Brian in UK: So many albums in 64/65 included singles plus a few token others thrown in. Guess the Beatles led the way with original album tracks (& some singles) but only starting with Hard Days Night.
	🥁 ♥ 3:34pm Funky16Corners: I think the non-lp singles that form the bridge between Moodys Mk1 and II are evidence that maybe the band wasn't on their way to a second album
	🥁 ♥ 3:35pm Funky16Corners: Which is too bad because their originals, mostly Laine/Pinder songs were great
	🥁 ♥ 3:41pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks for the Magnificence today, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 3:42pm Funky16Corners: Hey Kevin! Welcome aboard!
	🥁 ♥ 3:44pm Brian in UK: This single presaged the way forward.
	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm Erica: Nice to have Julie back, even if as a fill-in.
	🥁 ♥ 3:46pm Hopey Sockmonkey: I only vaguely remember the Ahh-Laine album.
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm Erica: Early Justin Hayward solo songs are quite good. The only Justin solo song I know of is Forever Autumn.
	🥁 ♥ 3:49pm Funky16Corners: Justin was the whole package. Great singer, songwriter and an excellent guitarist
	🥁 ♥ 3:50pm Brian in UK: Tony Clark was the sixth Moody?
	3:50pm Vincent The Soul Chef: I'd still give my right arm to find a mono copy of this record...
	🥁 ♥ 3:51pm Funky16Corners: Clarke produced some great UK freakbeat and psyche 45s by Pinkerton's Assorted Colours and the St Louis Union
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Brian in UK: Ah Pinkertons, autoharp rules.
	🥁 ♥ 3:52pm Funky16Corners: Holy shit! He produced 'My Father's Name Is Dad' by Fire!!
	♥ 3:55pm Phillippe Bastille: One of my all time favorite tunes...
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: Oddly enough, THIS was their first big hit in the US in this incarnation
	🥁 ♥ 3:55pm Funky16Corners: Hey Phillippe!
	♥ 3:56pm Phillippe Bastille: Looks like I got zoomed out of a nice show
	🥁 ♥ 3:57pm Funky16Corners: You can always catch it in the archive
	🥁 ♥ 3:59pm Erica: Gotta love that orchestral score though. Very pretty.
	🥁 ♥ 3:59pm Brian in UK: I think that the best way to listen to archive is not to look at the playlist. Then it is almost live.
	🥁 ♥ 4:00pm Funky16Corners: That's a good idea
	🥁 ♥ 4:02pm KevinfromBayRidge: Fond memories of copying my cousin's DoFP album onto reel to reel. I was a naughty lil 14 year old copyright thief!
	🥁 ♥ 4:03pm Funky16Corners: Remember when home taping was killing music? I don't think it worked.
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Brian in UK: Had to look this up, Days of Future Passed was released the week after Forever Changes release. It was a long time ago.
	🥁 ♥ 4:04pm Funky16Corners: Great week!
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm KevinfromBayRidge: Yeah, don't think the RtoRs made a big impact!
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Jeff Ash: Hearing this, it is late at night in the early '70s with the local free-form radio playing in my bedroom.
	🥁 ♥ 4:05pm Funky16Corners: Hey Jeff!
	♥ 4:06pm Phillippe Bastille: 10 year old me was just waking up to music when this came out. Fond memories
	🥁 ♥ 4:06pm KevinfromBayRidge: Alison!(Steele)
	4:07pm Vincent The Soul Chef: I was listening to my uncle's waterlogged record after he had dismissed it as trash... I cleaned it up, and it undoubtedly changed my life...
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: @Kevin - Right?
	🥁 ♥ 4:07pm Funky16Corners: I don't remember if this was the first full length Moodys LP I heard or Question...
	🥁 ♥ 4:08pm Funky16Corners: Here it comes...stoned teenage me knew it by heart
	🥁 ♥ 4:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: Definitely my first Moody's point of contact!
	4:10pm Vincent The Soul Chef: That dramatic finish always brought a tear to my eye...
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Candy-O'67: Fab show, Larry! Been tuning in!!
	🥁 ♥ 4:11pm Funky16Corners: hey Candy-O!
	🥁 ♥ 4:12pm KevinfromBayRidge: Very happy that I've seen them 4 times, although not in their "prime"
	🥁 ♥ 4:13pm Funky16Corners: They're still great! They sounded fantastic on the PBS special they did
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm Brian in UK: It's 1968 again.
	🥁 ♥ 4:14pm KevinfromBayRidge: Agreed. Just the time 1990s-2018
	🥁 ♥ 4:17pm KevinfromBayRidge: Never saw them with Pinder but Thomas was in the earlier shows that I saw.
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Funky16Corners: I never got to see them in person.
	🥁 ♥ 4:19pm Erica: Different stream?
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hopefully you'll have chance after our global shitshow!
	🥁 ♥ 4:20pm Funky16Corners: Stream dropped, should be back now
	4:20pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Yep...
	♥ 4:20pm Phillippe Bastille: Bluegrass Moody Blues was interesting
	🥁 ♥ 4:21pm KevinfromBayRidge: Mr Leary must've "dropped" something there!
	♥ 4:21pm Doug Schulkind: You're being such a Moody bastard today, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doug!
	🥁 ♥ 4:22pm Funky16Corners: Stream dropped a few minutes ago. I'm going to have to send a full show to John
	♥ 4:24pm Phillippe Bastille: Kind of refreshing to find myself singing along with songs that I didn't realize I knew the lyrics to
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Brian in UK: Snap, Phillippe.
	🥁 ♥ 4:25pm Funky16Corners: They sure knew how to write pop songs
	♥ 4:29pm Webhamster Henry: This show is giving me flashbacks, and I've been drug free my whole life.
	🥁 ♥ 4:29pm Funky16Corners: Hey Henry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm KevinfromBayRidge: Question was my first Moody's purchase( not copy!).Wore this baby out on my folks Motorola colorTV/phonograph/ AM/FM Console.
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm doctorjazz: Quick hi, then back to the mines.
	🥁 ♥ 4:35pm Funky16Corners: Hey Doc!
	🥁 ♥ 4:36pm Funky16Corners: I remember trying to play this in an early band and the guitarist could not hack it
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm KevinfromBayRidge: Boys knew how to use a Mellotron and stereo separation!
	🥁 ♥ 4:37pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, that Mellotron is like an extra member of the group
	🥁 ♥ 4:38pm doctorjazz: These Question of Balance tunes are great, loved them back in the day!
	🥁 ♥ 4:40pm Funky16Corners: This is def up there as one of my faves
	4:43pm Linda Lee: hey! how sweet hearing the Moodies on this moody november evening. thanks, Larry!
	🥁 ♥ 4:43pm Funky16Corners: Hey Linda!
	🥁 ♥ 4:44pm Funky16Corners: It's a long way from 'The Worst That Could Happen'
	4:46pm Linda Lee: wow... can't be the same vocalist...
	🥁 ♥ 4:46pm KevinfromBayRidge: Now, to be a TOTAL ingrate, "To Our Children's Children"?
	4:47pm Linda Lee: always loved 'ride my seesaw'. even this .. can't be terrible.
	🥁 ♥ 4:48pm Funky16Corners: @Linda - That was indeed Johnny Maestro
	🥁 ♥ 4:49pm Funky16Corners: @Kevin = Nothing on TOCC made the cut. Perhaps at a future date?
	🥁 ♥ 4:50pm Brian in UK: Thanks Larry. Lovely time travel.
