Dropping like flies.
RIP, music man. 🎶
Moody Blues.....What a wonderfully distinctive sound.
Lead singer on first MB hit “Go Now”. 70s still seems young now.
Saw him perform solo in a tiny club in Northern VA a few years back. Tickets were about $30 and there were only about fifty people there. He did a lot of talking during the show. He wasn’t very complimentary of Paul. He said Paul was miserly and a micromanager. He also said Paul’s Japan drug bust and the resultant tour cancellation basically ruined him financially.
RIP... hope he finds the Lost Chord
Denny was in the original pop Moody Blues that existed in earlier 60s known for the song “Go Now”.
Moody Blues reformed and reshaped their sound in the late 1960s and went on to become the incredible band it became. Denny Laine didn’t play much of a role in the Moody Blues at least as I know it.
Denny was an historical relic of sorts for the Moody Blues and became really known for his work in Wings.
RIP Denny.
No one can ride the seesaw forever.
A year and a half ago we saw Denny Laine, Todd Rundgren, Christopher Cross and Badfinger at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, Illinois. It was the final night of their tour named “It Was 50 Years Ago Today”, a tribute to the Beatles. They played various songs from the Rubber Soul and Revolver albums, plus a couple songs each of their own music.
Denny Laine’s featured songs were “Go Now” and “Band on the Run”.
What a great show from an eclectic group of musicians and song writers.
RIP Denny Laine
Oh no
Hope he listened to The Voice
...it’s calling you back to face the music.
He played on “Back to the Egg”, probably the last Wings album. I loved it.
RIP.
Also fathered a child with the daughter of Peter Grant- the man who Led Zeppelin.
As a long time Moody Blues fan i though it was a disgrace he was on the podium when the Moodies were inducted into the rock and roll Hall of Fame
I listen to a lot of Classic Rock on various stations and it seems the Moody Blues is hardly played, unfortunately.
We had “Days of Future Past” as kids and played it to death.
Who doesn’t love ‘Tuesday Afternoon’
Lot of great music from them.
“Nights in White Satin”
“Question”
“The Story in Your Eyes”
“Ride my See Saw”
“I’m Just a Singer (in a Rock and Roll Band).”
I can still hear throughout the intercom system my Dad installed that never seemed to work quite right.
RIP Denny.
