OK, it isn't really the Moody Blues -- it is performed by me.

The track is London Is Behind Me, which some of you might know as the
Justin Hayward single that came out before he joined the Moody Blues.
I have always liked the melody of this song and last night I was
thinking: what if the Moody Blues had re-recorded this song, say in
early 1968? So I did my best impression of the 68-era Moody Blues
that I could and this is the result. It comes complete with
Mellotron, trademark harmonies, 12-string acoustic, double tracked
lead vocals, and even samples of Graeme Edge's drums!

To download the track, go here:

then right click the link and choose Save Target As.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Ryan
