The Moody Blues recorded by Decca in December 1969 at The Royal Albert Hall.

This legendary concert was the highlight of The Moody BluesThreshold Roadshow UK Tour of that year, promoting both the band’s latest album “To Our Children’s Children’s Children” and other acts on the Moody Blues’ recently established label, Threshold.

The original concert recordings have been given a 2022 mix by Stephen W. Tayler and provide a wonderful insight into The Moody Blues live sound at the band’s commercial and creative peak.
Vinyl with 12″ single/EP.
