The legendary MOODY BLUES come to the King Center in Melbourne March 9. With a legacy spanning four decades of recording and touring, the band has sold in excess of 70 million albums worldwide and has been awarded an astonishing 14 platinum and gold discs.

Their roster of hits includes: "Nights In White Satin," "Ride My See Saw," "The Story In Your Eyes," "Isn't Life Strange," "Question," "I'm Just A Singer (In A Rock And Roll Band)," "Your Wildest Dreams," and "I Know You're Out There Somewhere," to name a few. The Moody Blues' No. 1, Top 5, Top 10, Top 20, Top 40, Multi-Platinum, Platinum and Gold albums and singles, have generated sold-old tours on a consistent basis over the course of several decades, making them one of the top-grossing album and touring bands in existence.

In conjunction with the tour, Eagle Rock Entertainment has made available THE MOODY BLUES: LIVE AT THE ISLE OF WIGHT FESTIVAL 1970 on DVD for the first time. The much talked-about 79 minute, 11 song performance by Justin Hayward (guitarist/vocalist), John Lodge (bassist/vocalist), Ray Thomas (flutist/vocalist), Graeme Edge (drummer) and Mike Pinder (keyboardist/vocalist) became a historic event performing in front of half a million fans off the coast of England. Touring in suport of A Question of Balance at the time, the band had four albums all in the Top 5 U.K. with two #1 hits. Previously heard but never seen, this is the first time that one of the most indelible, groundbreaking and iconic live performances of the Classic Rock era is available to view. Also this year, the band's legendary hit single "Tuesday Afternoon" was featured on a nationwide commercial campaign for VISA.
