Review: The Moody Blues Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival

Thursday August 21, 2008
You know that feeling you get when you run into an old friend, enjoy a few minutes of catching up, then wonder why you don't get together more often, like you used to?

That's the feeling I got after listening to The Moody Blues Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival. Recorded at the 1970 festival (the one that broke the attendance record set a year earlier at Woodstock) this live set captures the energy and imagination of a band just beginning to make big waves on both sides of the Atlantic.

So, let's catch up with an old friend, as we cue up a few fond memories from The Moody Blues Live At The Isle Of Wight Festival.
