  • @TheTilion
    Ian's solo is amazing! And Justin's voice, wonderful.

    I just love how old rockers and musos now with nothing to prove and ego's let go love to catch up and make music together. It warms my heart.

    Two of the great geniuses of British rock doing a classic song...perfect!

    I cannot believe that I didn’t know this collaboration had happened. Literally my two favorite musicians of all time, together performing this masterpiece. Both sound amazing!

    I'm glad Justin Hayward was a sport about doing something with Ian Anderson, after Ian had once publicly expressed interest in becoming part (i.e. official member) of the Moody Blues, which I believe was emotionally reserved for Ray, and is perfectly filled out to this day by Norda Mullen. It's nice to get the chance to hear that much drempt of 'Tull Tone' on the flute solo, and I thought it was creative and worth the effort. I enjoy hearing the most famous rock flautist of our day play the most famous flute solo, and make a version of it for himself. If only more art crossed over like this in the spirit of curiousity and freedom to explore.

    Justin sang that incredibly well. To see him and Ian share a stage is just amazing.

    The wish of Ian Anderson come true to play the flute part on "Nights" one time...
  • @designerlarry
    Ray Thomas is smiling with approval to know Ian finally got the gig to perform these classics with at least Justin. And Ian is grateful- they sound awesome together!
  • Been a fan since the beginning and I love hearing other musicians add their special gifts with a super talent like Justin Hayward. My kids grew up with his music and still listen

    Two of my favorite musicians of all time Justin Hayward and Ian Anderson and bands...incredible to listen and grow up to such melodic songs ever created. I am very picky at what I consider to be genuinely good music. They both are top notch! Loved them both for over 40+ years. Glad to see them together.

    Britain is so blessed to have performers like this.
  • Loved Ian's take on this famous flute solo. Extrapolation is brilliant. Ray Thomas' memory survives intact, and now we have a new memory with Ian.

    So JH was 65 when this was recorded. Still has the vocal power and range of when he was in his twenties.

    The four minute miracle song that has lasted over fifty years...and loved just as much today as it was when first released. Not many songs can hold that claim to fame....and no, let's not put the Beatles into this equation. None of their songs were written in just four minutes. Nights in White Satin WAS.
  • This song gets more beautiful in every setting ,and with every combo of musicians - as long as Justin Hayward , or one of the other Moodies, is one of them.
  • My favorite band and songwriter Justin hayward , and one of the best concerts i ever saw jethro tull. Ian anderson who's also incredible on the guitar. Just great to see them together. What an age of music , both legends.
  • So good! Justin's voice was perfect and Ian is so aware, he knew just how far to go

    I listened to this 3 times. Can’t get enough of this magical music! Thank you Justin and Ian .
