The Moody Blues

The Moody Blues are a British classic rock band formed in Birmingham, England. After recording albums for Decca Records in the mid-1960s, the band came upon what would be its signature sound with 1967's Days of Future Passed, an album that included the hit single "Nights in White Satin." Their music was soon characterized by its complex orchestrations and prog-rock tendencies.

After splitting up in 1974, The Moody Blues reunited three years later and found new success in such '80s hits as "In Your Wildest Dreams" and "I Know You're Out There Somewhere."
