    So that's the last of the original founding members right? Only Justin Hayward and John Lodge are left?

    The band's surviving members are drummer Graeme Edge, bassist John Lodge, and vocalist/guitarist Justin Hayward. I do believe.

    The "Blue Jays".yes  An incredible post-Moodies album.  Check out the first song ("Nights, Winters, Years") and the third song ("I Dreamed Last Night") on part two of this series of YouTube clips covering the whole album.heart

    The "Moodies" were a MAJOR influence on my thinking and life.  Mike Pinder on the Mellotron was my favorite.  The music and lyrics of the Moodies came at a time when I needed it.smileyyesheart
