Raymond Thomas (29 December 1941 – 4 January 2018) was an English musician, flautist, singer and composer in the UK rock band The Moody Blues.
The Moody Blues are an English rock band formed in Birmingham, England in 1964. They first came to prominence playing rhythm and blues music, but their second album, Days of Future Passed, which was released in 1967, was a fusion of rock with classical music and established them as pioneers in the development of art rock and progressive rock. It has been described as a "landmark" and "one of the first successful concept albums".
The band became known internationally with singles including "Go Now", "Nights in White Satin", "Tuesday Afternoon", and "Question". They have been awarded 18 platinum and gold discs. The Moody Blues have sold 70 million albums worldwide. They will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.

Chuck!! I came over here not expecting to see something about a musician I knew! Thanks for the info about the Moody Blues. Of course, the fact that he's deceased puts a damper on things. I can't say how often "Nights in White Satin" has been an earworm for me and I know the monologue by heart.
Now, about the 99 Red Balloons, a friend gave me a movie called "The Red Balloon" recently. It is a short French film about a boy who was "adopted" by a balloon. I wonder if the two things are related.
