In 1970 The Moody Blues were at their creative and commercial peak. After reinventing themselves from their R&B roots to a much more sophisticated sound, between 1967 and 1970 they released five albums, four of which hit the Top 5 in the UK with two of them going to No.1. The Moody Blues took to the stage of the Isle Of Wight Festival in front of an audience estimated at over half a million. This film makes that performance available to be seen for the first time.
