MOODY BLUES - самый маленький симфонический оркестр в мире

2Ram On The Run:

Завсегда пожалуйста. Вышел на Castle.

Thanks, Primal Scream!
Дело в том, что его много лет не выпускали на CD. Релиз был только в LP-формате.
У нас, кстати, выходил.
У меня наш пиратский есть. Великолепная пластина!

надежды маленький оркестрик под управлением любви:)
в полной мере это относится к the Moody Blues

Недавно приобрел сольник Рея Томаса "The Mighty Oaks". Очень мило, если не учитывать некоторых нестрояков инструментов.
Пиндер, Перкуссия и Леннон изображены на фото.

~> Сироткиндт:
Пиндера вижу, Леннона тоже, а сзади видимо сидит Перкуссия? :)))

~> sunset:
Поддерживаю! Относится! :)

Сзади сидит его сын Мэттью, а перкуссия в виде тамбурина рядом с пластом.

~> Сироткиндт:
Так вроде для пласта маловата картинка?
И не сингл, и не LP ...

Дык ведь ЛП судя по размерам тамбурина. По моему это же Лайв ин нью йорк сити. Хотя у меня эта пластинка есть и там на обратной стороне фотка с музыкантами, и что-то там я Пиндера не видел. Когда у него был другой сайт, не тот который сейчас, там был список всех песен, в которых Майк когда либо играл, и в том числе там присутствовал Леннон, альбом Имеджин. А какая песня - не написано. Вопрос однако открыт. Можно в принципе ему написать, спросить или на местном форуме позыркать.

~> Сироткинд:
Ну, наверное стоит прислушаться - в какой композиции на альбоме "Imagine" отчётливо слышен тамбурин ...
А сам тамбурин, скорее всего ТОТ САМЫЙ и есть.

вот песня, в которой тамбуринил Майк:

I Don't wanna Be A Soldier
Mama I Don't Wanna Die
5:53 alternate mix

john lennon: electric guitar; george harrison : slide guitar; joey molland: acoustic guitar; tom evans: acoustic guitar; nicky hopkins: piano; klaus voormann: bass; jim keltner: drums; mike pinder: tambourine; steve brendell: maracas; king curtis: saxophone

тамбурин тот самый, не случайно рядом с портретом поставлен

Том Эванс из Badfinger

Спасибо большое за инфо!
Посмотрел вчера The Lost Performance - Live In Paris'70
Фонограмма, блиииин!!! Чуваки даже не стараются играть, вообще! На обложке - этот бриллианс живой концерт блаблабла! Обидно. Ну хоть на ранних муди посмотрел. А кстати: есть ли еще какие-нить бутлежные видео ранних муди блюз?

Еще оценил The Other Side Of Red Rocks - супер DVD. Интервьюшки, репетиции, вобщем здорово! Нескорлько песен, не вошедших в оригинальный ред рокс. Молодцы!

2 CD set. Days Of Future Passed is the Moody Blues' true contribution to rock history and the most cohesive integration of rock songs with orchestral music ever produced. Asked to create a rock reworking of Dvorak's New World Symphony, the Moodies instead wrote their own symphony, a song cycle that describes the emotions that accompany each part of the day, from dawn ('Dawn Is A Feeling') to night (the classic 'Nights In White Satin'). The songs are connected by lush orchestral passages in which the basic musical themes are reworked. Polydor. 2006.

2 CD set. After helping lay the groundwork for concept albums and progressive rock with 1967's orchestra-enhanced suite Days Of Future Passed, the Moodies retrenched for the follow-up. They abandoned the orchestra but kept their sound as rich as before by playing a multitude of instruments themselves, including everything from sitar to cello to oboe. At the time, it was remarkable enough for these instruments to appear on a rock record, much less to be played by the band itself. The string-laden conceptual pieces of Days were replaced by shorter, more concise songs that leaned more toward Beatlesque pop and displayed a pronounced Eastern influence. In Search Of The Lost Chord is the most exotic, trippy album in the Moodies' catalog. Polydor. 2006.

remastered, with 9 bonus tracks

The Moody Blues abandoned the Oriental and Indian influences from their prior album in favor of more traditional Western melody, as well as science fiction and religious imagery. Similarly, the sitars and tables disappear, replaced by much heavier use of the Mellotron and the grand piano, among other Western instruments. Both keyboards come to the fore in the album's centerpiece, 'Have You Heard/The Voyage', a Mike Pinder tour de force and a wonderful piece of progressive psychedelia. Polydor. 2006.

2 CD set. This, the post-Denny Laine lineup's fourth album, was the second to be released in 1969. It was the group's most mature, fully realized effort to date, arguably surpassing even the milestone Days Of Future Passed in its elegance and vision. The Moodies were always capable of both songcraft and experimentalism, but this was the first time they combined them both successfully. Mike Pinder's dramatically arcing mellotron is the perfectly complement to the group's lush vocal harmonies, which are colored by rich acoustic guitar textures. Things open on a mind-bendingly psychedelic note with the electrical storm of 'Higher And Higher', but soon the waters calm. Justin Hayward's brief acoustic ballad 'I Never Thought I'd Live To Be A Hundred' is among the band's loveliest tunes, and it leads into 'Beyond', an ambitious instrumental that is the Moodies at their most progressive. Throughout the album, the mixture of winningly melodic balladry, poignant folk-rock and ambitious prog-rock leanings combine for what is one of the Moody Blues' most satisfying albums. Polydor. 2006.
