The Moody Blues hadn’t had a real hit since “Go Now” in 1965, when they were still scuffling. An epiphany took place, and they evolved into neo-classical music with the “Days Of Future Passed” LP. However, this single still didn’t yield results, only “bubbling under” the Hot 100 beginning this week. When re-released in late 1972, however, it reached #2 in America and sent the Moodies on a path to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. (RIP to their flautist Ray Thomas, 1/4/2018.) The concept video is very pre-MTV but not bad for the times. A personal fave of mine.
