Deluxe 50th Anniversary Clamshell Box Double Disc Remastered re-issue of a classic album, with 43 Bonus Tracks, 29 of which are Previously Unreleased!

This late November 2014 Edition, Remastered from the Original 4-Track Tapes, celebrates the 50th Anniversary of ‘The Magnificent Moodies’, the 1965 debut album by the MOODY BLUES!

Now associated as being pioneers of Progressive Orchestral Rock, the MOODY BLUES had another life between 1964 and 1966, as one of Britain’s finest Rhythm & Blues influenced acts. With a line-up of Denny Laine (guitar / vocals / harmonica), Ray Thomas (vocals / harmonica / flute), Mike Pinder (keyboards/ vocals), Clint Warwick (bass / vocals) and Graeme Edge (drums), the band signed to a London based management company who leased recordings to Decca Records. Their second single, a cover version of Bessie Banks’ ‘Go Now!’ was a huge chart success across the world.
Their debut album: ‘The Magnificent Moodies’ was released in 1965 to great acclaim and tours with the BEATLES eventually led them to become part of Brian Epstein’s management stable.
The band continued to record a series of singles, enjoying further chart hits in the UK and Europe, before Clint Warwick departed to be replaced by Rod Clarke and then finally dissolving in the Autumn of 1966 and reinventing themselves stylistically with a new line-up featuring Justin Hayward and John Lodge.

Disc 1 of this official 50th Anniversary Re-Issue contains the Original Album, Re-mastered from the First Generation Master Tapes, along with 15 Bonus Tracks that include All Singles Recorded Between 1964 & 1966 and One Previously Unreleased recording!
Disc 2 of this collection noteably contains 28 Previously Unreleased Bonus Tracks, including the band’s Entire July 1964 Sessions at Olympic Studios in London, all surviving BBC Radio Sessions recorded in 1965 and 9 Tracks recorded in the summer of 1966 with producer Denny Cordell for a proposed but Unreleased 2nd Album (all Newly Mixed from the Original Four-Track Master Tapes).

This Deluxe Double Disc Set is packaged in a Clamshell Box, with a Lavishly Illustrated Booklet (with Previously Unseen Photographs designed by Phil Smee) and Essay written by Mark Powell, Three Rare Promotional Postcards and a Poster. This edition of ‘The Magnificent Moodies’ must surely be the definitive statement on the formative years of one of Britain’s greatest bands.

‘Magnificent Moodies’ is also available as a Standard Single CD – Stock # 1728738

‘Magnificent Moodies’ is released on 24th November 2014.
