Timothy Leary's Dead is a recurring lyric in the 1968 trippy psychedelic rock classic song called Legend Of A Mind by English Progressive Pop Rock band The Moody Blues. Today I heard the News that Moody Blues co-founder Mike Pinder is dead. I thought I would honor him by featuring a cool Moody Blues song.
If you don't know who Timothy Leary is, you can click that link and read more on Wikipedia. He was a clinical psychologist at Harvard who was all for psychedelic drugs such as LSD. I'm not an advocate for any kind of drug use, but I do think psychedelic music is cool :)
My Activity
Today was once again helping a relative do some errands. That didn't leave me much time for movement other than short walks in and out of places.
At night I did do my walk. it was a little chilly and I wore the hoodie. The still nearly full moon was out but was very low on the horizon. I only saw it full at one point on my walk. Other than that it was behind houses and trees.
I'll leave you all with one more Moody Blues tune that I like. it's less slow and trippy. I like the fast beat on this one. It is called Ride My See Saw. This version includes the poem at the beginning that is recited to a continuously pitch rising tone. There's Mike behind the keyboard.

Sad to hear that he has left the world but his songs will continue to be loved by people.
It's sad to hear about Mike Pinder's passing. The Moody Blues have left a lasting legacy in the world of music. Thanks for sharing their tunes and honoring his memory.
Do you take walks every night or just once a while?
Great songs, thanks for sharing the report, have a nice day and have a great Friday
I am sad to hear the passing of Mike Pinder, co-founder of The Moody Blues. I pay special tribute to him by featuring a Moody Blues song.
