Podcast appearances and mentions of John Lodge

Steven goes over Yes-related news of the past week! Just today, November 10, 2025, we got the news of spring 2026 tour dates for Jon Anderson & The Band Geeks. And the other day saw the announcement of the Tales from Topographic Oceans Super Deluxe Edition coming out in the new year. Plus, an update from Emily Lodge regarding a project to expect regarding her father the late John Lodge. All this and more news items.

Vorige week was Moody Blueszanger en -gitarist Justin Hayward voor twee concerten in ons land. Kort daarvoor overleed zijn vriend, Moody Blues-bassist en zanger John Lodge. Alle redenen om in deze podcast naar de Moody Blues te kijken en de rol van deze twee, en vooral die van Hayward in die band te kijken.

Ouverture d'émission par un hommage, encore...Cette fois, c'est John Lodge, le bassiste des MOODY BLUES qui s'en est allé tutoyer les étoiles ce 10 octobre, il avait 82 ans. S'il n'en était pas membre fondateur, il était très vite devenu un élément essentiel suite à un changement de personnel deux ans seulement après la création du groupe qu'il rejoindra avec Justin Hayward en 1966. La musique classique s'invitera dans les compositions et arrangements de Moody Blues, direction les routes de ce qu'on appellera plus tard... le rock progressif. Extrait dans ce numéro de l'album "To Our Children's Children's Children" paru en 1969 et un titre fort à propos et composé notamment par John... Puisque nous sommes dans les légendes de sa Majesté, un certain PAUL MCCARTNEY, certes le Grand Maca ne fait pas spécialement dans le rock prog, mais c'est un touche à tout, et c'est en réécoutant cette semaine son album "Chaos And Creation In The Backyard" (l'un de mes préférés ! ) que j'ai eu envie de partager un extrait avec vous et j'ai choisi un titre somme toute, pas complètement hors de propos ici... Un (petit) YES, pour se faire plaisir avec un extrait de l'album "TORMATO" paru en 1978, dont la pochette n'est pas (pour la 2ème fois consécutive) attribuée à Roger Dean mais à Hipgnosis, célèbre collectif de graphistes anglais avec le fameux Storm Thorgerson. Mais le rendu n'était pas à la hauteur des attentes du groupe, puisque la légende veut que son claviériste Rick Wakeman mécontent du visuel proposé, lui jettera une tomate (sur le visuel, pas sur Storm ! )  L'album qui devait s'intituler "Yes Tor", deviendra un mix de "Tor" et de "Tomato" (tomate) et la pochette conservera le graphisme original gratifié de la solanacée écrasée...Yes qui par ailleurs est en pleine tournée américaine pour célébrer l'album "Fragile" et dont son vétéran, le guitariste Steve Howe, s'apprête à publier un EP vinyle en tirage très limité (qui devrait toutefois sortir sur les plateformes) consacré à Bob Dylan... En parlant d'Hipgnosis, on associe forcément ce nom à PINK FLOYD dont la quasi intégralité du catalogue est signé de cette boite mythique ! Et quand deux mythes se rencontrent : un visuel parfait pour représenter l'absence, thème d'un album majeur (voire pour beaucoup le meilleur) du Floyd, on obtient "Wish You Were Here". Vous le savez, depuis la fin de saison dernière on revient sur cet album dans l'ordre des morceaux. Depuis la rentrée nous en sommes à la face B et dans ce numéro c'est au tour de  la chanson-titre d'être mise à l'honneur. Fans du groupe préparez vous à mettre la main à la poche, depuis que Sony s'est offert le catalogue des anciens de Cambridge, ils doivent chercher à rentabiliser leur investissement ! Bref, une nouvelle édition spéciale 50 ans paraîtra le 12 décembre prochain sous différent formats (CD, digital, LP, Blu-ray, coffret) avec des démos et versions inédites (en plus des quelques unes déjà parues dans la réédition de 2011) et un bootleg live à Los Angeles de 1975 restauré et remixé par un certain... Steven Wilson... Je parlais de musique classique intégrée au rock des Moody Blues, ce qui fut la même tendance chez leurs collègues du BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST qu'on réecoute toujours avec beaucoup de plaisir, ici avec un extrait de leur 2ème opus "Once Again" ce qui nous amène à l'année 1971... Pour limiter ce vertige temporel, quelques anglais contemporains mais également talentueux comme NICK FLETCHER considéré par un certain Steve Hackett (Genesis) comme le meilleur guitariste rock/jazz du Royaume de Sa Majesté, rien que ça ! Il faut dire que Nick nous entraine dans une fusion efficace, ici autour d'un concept à propos de "La Persona", théorie du psychiatre suisse, Carl Jung selon laquelle un individu présente un visage social au monde pour donner une certaine impression et cacher sa vraie nature, ce qui donne pour titre à cet album concept :"The Mask Of Sanity". C'est tout nouveau et fort recommandé par votre serviteur (qui fait de la radio pour éviter de mettre un masque ! )      Il n'y a pas que les anglais dans la vie ! La Pologne par exemple nous gratifie de belles formations rock prog que vous pouvez parfois entendre dans cette émission ! Ainsi PINN DROPP qui vient de publier son 4ème album (après un EP numérique à leur débuts en 2017). "For The Love Of Drama" est le titre de cette galette toute chaude, et là encore c'est un régal pour les cages à miel ! Et puis l'Italie, avec RANESTRANE, ce groupe formé en 1998, inspiré par leurs aînée Goblin ou PFM mais aussi par les cousins britanniques Genesis ou Marillion... Marillion dont deux représentants (le guitariste Steve Rothery et le chanteur Steve Hogarth) ont ramené leurs talents sur l'album inspiré de Stanley Kubrick et son "2001, L'Odyssée de L'Espace". Ici extrait du 1er volet de la trilogie consacrée à l'œuvre Kubrickienne  : "A Space Odyssey Vol.1", paru en 2018 avec la guitare de Mr Rothery sur le titre diffusé ce soir...    En France, nous ne sommes pas en reste avec deux générations dans ce numéro. Celle de ANGE, avec un 2ème extrait du tout nouvel album fort réussi "Cunégonde", album qui sera entièrement présenté au cours de la saison ! Pendant ce temps là, le groupe poursuit sa tournée "Quitter la Meute", vérifiez les dates près de chez vous. Pour notre belle région, il faudra attendre le 13 février 2026 (Tours) ou le mois de mars pour la Bretagne mais on en reparlera d'ici là !  Enfin, l'espoir de voir briller le rock progressif français passe aussi par la jeune génération et je mise notamment beaucoup sur "PLEDGE OF HEALING" dont "One Step Closer" le 1er album a fait les belles soirées d'Amarok en 2023. Fondé par Claire et Cyril, le projet ne peut et ne doit pas en rester là ! La bonne nouvelle c'est que le groupe est entré en résidence et semble avoir du boulot sur la planche...Tant mieux, je ne sais pas vous mais j'espère et rêve de connaître une suite discographique à l'aventure....       Thierry Joigny Chaque jeudi, à 20h Suivez Amarok sur Facebook également sur Instagram

His death was sudden and came ahead of 2025 tour dates that were planned. Today we offer highlights of his three interviews with Dave: 2019, 2020, and 2022. Plus, we hear some classic Moody Blues, in his honor.

phone interviews by Peter Jonathan Robertson in 2004 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Insightful and informative as always, we discuss great losses of different generations, new pop icons in KC, curious listings, and more. In focus are Chappel Roan, D'Angelo, John Lodge, Taylor Swift, Springsteen, Millenium's "top" hits, Gordon Lightfoot, and much more. Always a great musical ride!

From Birmingham to the Rock Hall: the life, legacy, and love of Moody Blues bassist John Lodge.John Lodge (July 20, 1943 – October 10, 2025) was far more than the bass player for The Moody Blues — he was the gentle soul and musical anchor behind one of rock's most beloved bands. With his distinctive melodic bass, soaring harmonies, and thoughtful songwriting, Lodge helped turn The Moody Blues from a struggling R&B group into pioneers of symphonic and progressive rock.Born in Birmingham, John grew up surrounded by the post-war explosion of British music. He joined The Moody Blues in 1966, along with guitarist Justin Hayward, just as the band was ready to reinvent itself. Together they reshaped the group's direction, moving away from covers and pop singles toward the lush, conceptual sound that would define the late 1960s. Their first major success, Days of Future Passed (1967), blended rock with classical orchestration and produced the timeless hit “Nights in White Satin.” Lodge's basslines and harmonies underpinned that transformation — a sound that felt cinematic, emotional, and deeply human.Over the next five decades, John Lodge's touch could be felt across The Moody Blues' greatest works. He wrote and sang enduring tracks like “Ride My See-Saw,” “Isn't Life Strange,” and “I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band),” each one showcasing his knack for combining big ideas with irresistible hooks. While the band explored spirituality, time, and love through albums like In Search of the Lost Chord and A Question of Balance, Lodge kept their music grounded with rhythmic depth and melodic grace.As The Moody Blues evolved through the 1970s and 1980s, Lodge remained the band's creative backbone. His songwriting and stage presence were steady and sincere, and his partnership with Hayward became one of rock's most enduring collaborations. The group's music inspired generations, selling over 70 million albums and securing their place as one of the most influential acts in British rock history. In 2018, their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame marked the culmination of that extraordinary journey — a moment Lodge often described as “the completion of a dream we started as kids.”Even after The Moody Blues stopped touring in 2018, John Lodge's creative fire never dimmed. He continued recording and performing with his “10,000 Light Years Band,” revisiting classic Moody Blues songs while writing new ones that carried his message of faith and hope. His solo projects included B Yond (2019), The Royal Affair and After (2021), and Days of Future Passed – My Sojourn (2023), a heartfelt reinterpretation of the Moody Blues' 1967 masterpiece. His final release, Love Conquers All (2025), and the moving single “Whispering Angels,” co-written with his son-in-law Jon Davison of Yes, captured Lodge's optimism and belief in love's enduring power.Offstage, John Lodge lived a grounded life. Married to his wife Kirsten since 1968, he was a devoted husband and father to their children, Emily and Kristian. His song “Emily's Song” remains one of his most tender creations, written as a gift for his daughter and cherished by fans for its emotional honesty. Lodge often credited his Christian faith with keeping him centered through the highs and lows of fame, and he spoke often about gratitude — for music, family, and the fans who shared the journey with him.John Lodge passed away on October 10, 2025, at age 82, surrounded by family and the sounds of The Everly Brothers and Buddy Holly — the artists who first inspired him. His passing marked the end of an era, but his spirit lives on in the music that continues to inspire listeners around the world.From Birmingham stages to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, John Lodge's story is one of faith, friendship, and timeless creativity. He reminded us that true artistry isn't about chasing fame — it's about touching hearts. And through every note he played, he did exactly that.

Will and Jeremiah discuss new releases by Snõõper, Search Results, and Dramamine, plus a death of the week, a live report, and bonus songs.

This week, before Frankie and I begin taking a look at "Best Last Albums," we'll begin the show with a fitting tribute to the late John Lodge of the Moody Blues, who passed away late last week at the age of 82. What great songs he wrote for us, including "Isn't Life Strange," "Ride My See-Saw" and "I'm just a Singer in a Rock 'n Roll Band." Then in our new Feature, "Best Last Albums, this week it's "In Through the Out Door" by Led Zeppelin.

Meghan & Not-a-Prince Harry win another fake award, Bill Burr strains to explain to Conan, Ed Gein the influencer, angry Katie Porter, Criss Angel, Mark Sanchez, a bad sports weekend, menstrual cycle gambling, Presidential libraries, Drew Crime, and the best "day of the week" songs. Dan Dickerson had an oopsie on an open mic after the Detroit Tigers' 15-inning loss to the Seattle Mariners in Game 5 of the ALDS. Everyone supports Dan because we all feel the same. Obituary time: Sister Jean passes away only 2 weeks into retirement. Diane Keaton surprised people by dying.Moody Blues bassist-singer John Lodge expired at 82. Drew was wondering which day of the week has the best songs with that day in the title. Sunday and Tuesday are strong contenders. No one likes Wednesdays. Penn State fires head football coach James Franklin. Michigan embarrassed by USC.  There were a lot of Top 25 college football teams that were beat this weekend. Bill Belichick and UNC seem like a disaster despite what he tells Kirk Herbstreit. Rolling Stone dropped a big story on how FanDuel and DraftKings have helped create a bunch of young gaming addicts. The hot new thing to gamble on is the WNBA based on the players menstrual cycles. The Detroit Tigers' season is over. We tried avoiding it, but we break down the Game 5 ALDS loss. Ed Gein Episode 8 is a horrifying laugh riot. Ed was one of the first influencers. Too bad it involved murdering and necrophilia. The John Candy documentary dropped on Amazon Prime. Drew Crime: 20/20 featured the avoidable murder of Denise Amber Lee.  Not to be outdone, Dateline covered the murder of gay art dealer Clifford Lambert. Bill Burr is still defending his participation in the Riyadh Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia. Not-a-prince Harry and Me-Me-Me Meghan Markle win a humanitarian award for some reason. They were very icy towards each other. D4vd transferred his houses to his mother while questions surround his involvement in the death of Celeste Rivas. Katie Perry and Justin Trudeau are getting it on... again. Drew is starting to feel sorry for Joe Biden. Who goes to presidential libraries? Jennifer Aniston is full of it in her new interview with Harper's Bazaar. She's also trying to sound really deep. Criss Angel dumps his "narcissist" wife in a very petty way. Former US Rep and current California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter has some major anger issues. No one made her more angry than her "idiot" husband. The whole timeline of the Mark Sanchez stabbing is finally being revealed. Defense attorneys are gaslighting everyone: Jose Baez on Mark Sanchez, Karen Read's lawyer Alan Jackson in the Pepperdine murder case, and former LSU WR Kyren Lacy's fatal crash.

Produced by Wayne Hall, Joseph Cottrell, Jeffrey Crecelius and Ken Fuller This week, Mark and I had a think about the Yes songs we like that include contrasts - one of my favourite aspects of progressive rock - and Yes music. We both chose 2 songs to talk about in depth but also went on a bit about other songs that also fit this category. It was another very interesting conversation - at least I thought so. What songs do we choose? What do we mean by contrast? Do our selections cover a wide range of eras of the band? Let us know if you agree with us! https://youtu.be/7OmC-R3vgCg?si=xKZGo5I888fZ-UGn https://youtu.be/bvm1XyK_a18?si=HXcHkAq7WQJl25_I https://youtu.be/qEUkRRLe6vQ?si=Ju8E0yRs8JaNzkvy https://youtu.be/hBAauFYod80?si=n530lrEBf7iUS0by Mark Lang's photos from the Pete Roth Trio and John Lodge concerts plus his coloured vinyl Jon ANderson and the Band Geeks album: I MADE IT TO ANTHEM 52!

The Moody Blues have been an institution in our lives for 60 years. 60! Not many other bands can say that. Though the remaining members Justin Heyward and John Lodge are doing their own things now, it hasn't stopped them from bringing the goods. Bassist and songwriter John Lodge joins us this week with two major projects he's excited about - his brand new EP Love Will Conquer All and his current tour that finds him playing hits and their classic album, Days of Future Passed, in its entirety. Did I mention the man is 81 years old! We get into this current spark of creativity, the band's history, especially their 80s period that kept them relevant when many others weren't, and stories behind many of the songs. He's a legend, and a Rock n Roll Hall of Famer. Enjoy!  www.johnlodge.com www.patreon.com/c/thehustlepod

Listen to an interview with John Lodge, bassist, songwriter, and vocalist for The Moody Blues. He'll be performing in Indiana on February 28. The Moody Blues rose to prominence in the late 1960s, with a series of psychedelic hit singles, like “Tuesday Afternoon”and “Nights in White Satin”. Lodge wrote some of the band's biggest hits, including “Ride My See-Saw”, “Isn't Life Strange” and “I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band)”. Lodge has been performing and recording with The Moody Blues for over five decades. In 2018 the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Also, hear a conversation with the singer-songwriter, pianist, and disability activist Lachi. She'll be performing in Indiana on March 1. Lachi was born legally blind and her personal struggles with accessibility in the music industry inspired her to create RAMPD, Recording Artists and Music Professionals with Disabilities. RAMPD is an advocacy group dedicated to amplifying disability culture and promoting disability inclusion in the music industry. Lachi's work has been recognized the New York Times, Billboard, and USA Today, who named her one of 2024's women of the year. In addition to her work in music, Lachi is also the host of Renegades, a PBS series that explores the lives of little-known historical figures with disabilities.

1st ANNIVERSARY SHOW! I'm rebroadcasting our three anniversary shows! This is our first one from March 2022.I started the podcast in March 2021. It was the depths of the pandemic. Musicians like me could neither perform nor even rehearse. I needed to find a creative outlet and someone suggested that I should look into starting a podcast. I had no idea what a podcast was; I had never even listened to one. But the more that I looked into it the more I became convinced that a podcast could provide a much deeper level of engagement than ordinary social media. Plus I felt that I had an interesting and inspiring story to tell. So I began the podcast.This 1st Anniversary episode features vignettes from a number of my first year guests: “Cousin Brucie” Morrow, America's most famous radio personality; Jim Peterik of the Ides of March and formerly with Survivor; Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad fame; John Lodge of the Moody Blues; Joey Dee of “Peppermint Twist” fame; and English classical composer Sarah Class. Plus several other guests including budding Egyptologist Sarah Kotlova; Garry Ridge, CEO of WD 40; David Bedford, Beatles Liverpool Tour Guide; Debbie Greenberg of The Cavern Club in Liverpool; podcasting star John Lee Dumas; and Reena Friedman's Better Call Daddy podcast. ---------------------------------------------The Follow Your Dream Podcast:Top 1% of all podcasts with Listeners in 200 countries!For more information and other episodes of the podcast click here. To subscribe to the podcast click here .To subscribe to our weekly Follow Your Dream Podcast email click here.To Rate and Review the podcast click here.“Dream With Robert”.

Welcome to a Very Special Episode of the podcast celebrating the show's 3rd Anniversary! I started the podcast in March 2021 during the depths of the pandemic, when musicians like me couldn't play live. It was a bleak time for all of us. I needed to find a creative outlet and so I started this podcast. From the beginning it grew quickly and exponentially. It's been ranked for some time now in the Top 1% of all podcasts. I have listeners worldwide on every continent in 200 countries, and it has won several awards! My guests have included many of the world's most famous musicians and other creatives.Last year to celebrate the 2nd Anniversary I played excerpts from several guest interviews. But for this 3rd Anniversary show I wanted to do something different - and fun. So here's what I decided. After each interview I ask my guest to record a short promo for the podcast. I use these promos at the beginning of other guest interviews. Everyone does their promo a little differently in their own style. After all, they're artists! So I thought it would be fun to put together a montage of promos featuring a slew of my guests. The entire list is below.I want to thank my guests and my listeners for the success of the podcast. As I like to say - Keep On Rockin'! Featured Guests:"Cousin Brucie" Morrow, John Lodge, Ted Nugent, Al Kooper, Gary Puckett, Suzi Quatro, Tony Orlando, William Lee Golden, Richie Furay, Peter Noone, Timothy B.
