How come the Moody Blues are not in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. Take a look at some of the lousy bands that are already in it! Bands that don't compare.

Really sorry I missed that on pbs. Been a huge fan from day one. Have been lucky enough to see them live three times over the years.

From what I understand, the electors don't like "prog rock" bands. Look how long it took Yes to get in or Emerson,Lake and Palmer. They need to get their heads out of the sand and listen to the Moody Blues and understand just how good these guys really are.

Good article, good band. I’m surprised the article didn’t mention “Every good boy deserves favor”.

If you have not listened to the musical version of “The war of the worlds”, do so! “Forever Autumn” is one of their best songs in context.

Sad news indeed, that Ray Thomas just passed away a few days ago.

I call them "The World's Smallest Symphony Orchestra".
