Moody Blues - Tumblr Posts

There should be a continuous audio stream of Nights in White Satin whenever this hits my timeline…

“I am very saddened to hear that my ex-bandmate, Denny Laine, has died. I have many fond memories of my time with Denny: from the early days when The Beatles toured with the Moody Blues. Our two bands had a lot of respect for each other and a lot of fun together. Denny joined Wings at the outset. He was an outstanding vocalist and guitar player. His most famous performance is probably 'Go Now' an old Bessie Banks song which he would sing brilliantly. He and I wrote some songs together the most successful being 'Mull of Kintyre' which was a big hit in the Seventies. We had drifted apart but in recent years managed to reestablish our friendship and share memories of our times together. Denny was a great talent with a fine sense of humour and was always ready to help other people. He will be missed by all his fans and remembered with great fondness by his friends. I send my condolences and best wishes to his wife, Elizabeth and family. Peace and love Denny. It was a pleasure to know you. We are all going to miss you. Love, Paul”

Red Is Gray And Yellow White, But We Decide Which Is Right And Which Is An Illusion

I read an interesting comment on someone’s blog yesterday. The reader was marveling at the beautiful colors in a photograph of the cosmos, apparently unaware that the colors they were adulating were not natural. You see, the colors in pictures taken of the cosmos are largely the result of optical filtration used to photograph molecular activity which results in gases. It is necessary to use filters to see certain gases that would otherwise be invisible to the imaging system used to photograph them. The resulting colorization is as true to the human eye as the effect of sunglasses or a black light are. Our eyes were designed to see within a certain spectrum of light, the light of the sun. However, the color of anything is relative to its light source, optical filtration, the way our eyes are made and how our brain interprets information it receives from the optic nerve. In the end, all the beautiful colors you and I experience are merely a subjective interpretation of energy.

"Cold hearted orb that rules the night, removes the colours from our sight. Red is gray and yellow white, but we decide which is right and which is an illusion. Pinprick holes in a colourless sky let insipid figures of light pass by. The mighty light of ten thousand suns challenges infinity and is soon gone. Night time, to some, a brief interlude. To others the fear of solitude. Brave Helios wake up your steads. Bring the warmth the countryside needs." ~ The poem Morning Glory written by Graeme Edge of The Moody Blues and orated by Mike Pinder of The Moody Blues on the The Moody Blues album Days Of Future Passed.
