Knights in White Satin indeed. I don’t despise the Moody Blues as you might figure. I mean, I mostly despise them, but they came up with some good melodies (no doubt stolen from Classic Composers). Hey, if The Toys can do it why not the Moodies? Be that as it may, I always thought Out and In was a tune that would be great all punked up.
I mean, am I wrong? Oh shut up, Steve.
But that’s not why I’m here. I’m here so you can hear the Moody Blues doing James Brown’s “I’ll Go Crazy.” Of course they were a different group then, a Brit Beat Combo. It’s not as bad as it could be, if only because the song is so great that Lawrence Welk could get it over.
But you have suffered enough. Dig on the man himself:
The Moody Blues bring the Low Heat!
Surely you know this, Gene. From the kings of punk lite, The Dickies:

I saw The Dickies at CBGB by accident one night, when I walked in they were doing Sound of Silence and it cracked me right up.
