Description
The Moody Blues arrived at the third Isle of Wight Festival in August 1970 as one of the world’s top rock bands. Jimi Hendrix, The Who and The Doors were among the other attractions, but the ‘Moodies’ could travel to the island content that their third album in 2 years, “A Question Of Balance”, was sitting pretty at the top of the UK chart: predecessors “On The Threshold Of A Dream” and “To Our Children’s Children’s Children” had made 1 and 2 respectively, so there was no doubting the quintet’s status among such stellar company. The Moody Blues took to the stage in front of an audience estimated at over half a million and after one hour of pure energy, The Moody Blues left the audience completely blown away and with a concert none of them will ever forget. On May 22nd, 2020, their legendary performance will be re-released on 180g Double-Vinyl and CD. A strictly limited and numbered Violet 2LP Edition will only be available for a short period.
