Moody Blues Legend, 82, Reveals Why the Band Stopped Recording in Resurfaced Interview
Moody Blues Legend, 82, Reveals Why the Band Stopped Recording in Resurfaced Interview originally appeared on Parade. Moody Blues lead singer John Lodge, 82, shows no signs of slowing down. The iconic musician kicked off his Singer in a Rock and Roll Band tour this week, joined by Jon Davison of YES. Lodge suffered a stroke in 2023 but is now back on the road for a U.S. tour that concludes on August the Moody Blues took breaks over the years, the band essentially stopped touring following the death of drummer Graeme Edge in 2021. Lodge — bassist, vocalist, and songwriter for the Moody Blues — has enjoyed a successful solo and touring Blues fans had long hoped for a reunion or new music. But in a resurfaced interview with Prog, Lodge explained why fans shouldn't expect any new Moody Blues recordings. 'The problem we have on the recording side is that there's nobody to mentor us these days,' he said. 'We always had people at the label who encouraged us to write and record; and those sort of people have gone out of our lives.' He continued, 'I love the whole process of making a Moody Blues album. But without anyone to push us, I cannot see there being any new songs released.' Lodge's goal on his latest tour is to keep the band's music alive. The originator of symphonic rock in the late 1960s, the Moody Blues were known for hits like 'Night in White Satin' and 'Go Now.' The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with the band in 2018.🎬SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox🎬 Moody Blues Legend, 82, Reveals Why the Band Stopped Recording in Resurfaced Interview first appeared on Parade on Jul 20, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 20, 2025, where it first appeared.

Cal Raleigh's 'Big Dumper' gets a cheeky closeup in Yankees broadcast
Cal Raleigh's nickname means exactly what you think it means, as you may know. The Seattle Mariners catcher is known as "Big Dumper," because ... well, it's about his butt. I know, kind of awkward, but it's really the reason behind that nickname. His former teammate Jarred Kelenic revealed the nickname when Raleigh was called up in 2021, and it was the outfielder who gave him that moniker in 2020. Raleigh initially disliked it, apparently, which I'd understand! I don't want people staring at my backside when they learn why I'm called "Big Dumper!" Per The Athletic in 2023: 'So if we go back to the very beginning, everyone has always joked around that I have a big butt,' Raleigh said. 'It's not anything that I thought about. And then they said the same thing in college and in the minors.' ... 'I love it. I think it's great,' Raleigh said. 'My mom had other opinions about it. But it's good. It gets the fans involved and they have fun with it. And that is what it's all about. It's a good time. 'You got to own it, embrace it. As long as you're having fun with it, that's what baseball is all about. As long as it brings good energy and vibes it's all good.' So let's fast-forward to Tuesday night. On the New York Yankees' YES broadcast, Michael Kay and crew told the tale of "Big Dumper," and to illustrated the point about Raleigh's "posterior," cameras focused on the, uh, big dumper in question: Well handled by the booth, and I guess ... give that director a Sports Emmy for his coverage?
