THE MOODY BLUES: LOVELY TO SEE YOU- LIVE \oBLU-RAY\c:
The band shows they can still play, the picture and sound quality are very good. I highly recomend this dvd to anyone that has an HD music collection.
Moody Fans Delight:
From the sixties to now fans of all ages will appreciate the legacy of the Moodies in this live concert. Crank up the volume especially on " In your Wildest Dreams" and " I know your out there somewhere". Hopefully your sound system can de-code the DTS HD Master Audio. Its awesome-----.
Lovely To See You Again, My Friends:
My favorite incarnation of the Moodies is the original group with the two guitars, drums, mellotron and flute to help frame the beautiful lyrics and set the mood. After the group's hiatus, when Justin made his solo album, Ray Thomas left and a new keyboardist came on board which changed the whole vibe for me. I have enjoyed several of the songs the group has recorded since. I bought this DVD going on the reviews of other fans and I am so very glad that I did. It is a great showpiece for Blu-ray in both sight and sound. It surprised me to have two women on board for this concert and an additional drummer. The other drummer and the flautist could play more than one instrument as well as vocalize. The sound was really full with two keyboards, two different drum sets, flute, guitars and the enthusiasm and talent of the Moody Blues. These musicians love what they do, the fans who come to see and hear them and aren't about to stop anytime soon. The interview was really fun to see as all these many years I have known next to nothing of these talented people. Like I didn't know they have known each other since childhood. And that each feels they are "just a singer in a rock and roll band" and not some sort of guru. You can't tell me that there isn't a lot of the mystic about these boys though and they have real depth and sincerity. All in all this DVD of this concert is a sight for sore eyes and ears and made me so grateful for this technology.
Great Performance and in High Def!:
I got the new Moody Blues concert on Blu-Ray today in the mail!!! Anxiously, I loaded it into the machine, and watched the performance of "Forever Autumn". Wow - totally excellent!!! The audio/video quality, and performance are as good as it gets. It could be better however. Not all of the original members of the group are there (2 are missing). And, they didn't have an orchestra backing them up as in some previous performances. But, the group they put together is top notch nevertheless. Justin Hayward is in top form. I highly recommend it.
About the Previous Review...:
The reason the other two members (John and Graeme) weren't in the video is because Justin plays Forever Autumn during the intermission, while the other two are backstage. So don't worry, they come back!!! This is a great buy, and the Moodies are a great band, so go ahead and add this to your hi-def collection.
