The Moody Blues / To To Our Children's Children's Children 4CD+blu-ray 50th anniversary box set

The Moody Blues’ fifth album, To Our Children’s Children’s Children, will be reissued as a 4CD+blu-ray deluxe edition with new spatial audio and stereo mixes, in addition to rarities and live performances.

Issued in November 1969, the album was the first on the band’s on own label, Threshold Records and had a space exploration theme (inspired by the July 1969 moon landing). The one and only single ‘Watching and Waiting’ wasn’t a hit but the album performed well on both sides of the Atlantic, peaking at No. 2 in the UK.

The box set features a remaster of the original stereo mix of To Our Children’s Children’s Children along with new stereo and 5.1 surround mixes by Stephen W. Tayler, who has also created new stereo and 5.1 mixes of the band’s December 1969 Royal Albert Hall show (stereo mix is on CD 4 while the 5.1 mix is on the blu-ray). CD 2 in this package features B-sides and rarities, including a BBC Radio One Sunday Concert.

To Our Children’s Children’s Children will be reissued as this expanded 4CD+blu-ray deluxe edition on 12 May 2023, via UMR.
