The Moody Blues put themselves on the map with this classic rock ballad. Beautifully written here to feature a trumpet solo at the start followed by a dramatic building segment. The woodwinds have a brief feature section then the piece builds to a strong close.
The classic 1966 recording by Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels featured these tunes in an upbeat and driving medley and went on to become their biggest hit. Solid impact for the field or stands.
