The Moody Blues have sold 55 million records worldwide. They dominated the '70s and '80s with their progressive pop-rock, blending elements of classical music with early synths and spacious percussion. Excepting a brief hiatus, this band has been selling out top-level venues for decades. Their massive hits feature sparkling melodies, soft guitars and a radiant sincerity that is almost disarming in the era of irony. Their biggest hit, "Nights in White Satin" is a melancholy wail for a lost love, which features easily the greatest flute solo in popular music history. Ferris Bueller would have been super into these guys.
