R.I.P Ray

"...no, n-n-no he's outside looking in."

Bless you, Mr. Ray Thomas.

The Moody Blues would not have been the same, were it not for your writing, your flute, and your voice.

Very pity. R.I.P.

The first rock band that caught my attention. And, a lot of that was the uniqueness of Ray's flute. Quite a sad day. I actually have tix to see the band Friday in Orlando... Here's a little tribute I wrote: http://rarasfarm.com/2018/rip-veteran-cosmic-rocker/

Ever since I heard his haunting flute on Nights in White Satin, I've been a diligent fan.

It's time to revisit their discography...

Alas he passed six years ago today. (Grahame Edge in Nov a couple of years back)
Ray's death cut deeper than I thought it would... and he was a great peacemaker between Pinder & Edge, coupled with amazing flute work. It's right and fitting that he at least gets tribute paid... even with a few lines. Remembered anyway.

Legend Of A Mind.
