In June of 1993 I was feeling rather depressed about the
state of the world. We had just come out of 12 years of Reagan
and Bush doldrums, and I flet the ned for music to brighten my
spirits. Every project I worked on was inspired by the music of
the '60's, and yes, even the '70's. At that time I hadn't worked
on aproject for 12 years. So one day I thought about bringing
music back to my life. The next day I came home and the songs
just began to pour out and I began making a new tape. It just
mystically began to come together and two hours later I had my
music and a new tape. I soon began feeling great again. The music
was inspiring me. Two months later, I found myself ina butterfly
garden with hundreds of brightly colored butterflies fluttering
freely all about. It was like a scene right pout of Alice in Wonderland.
When I got back in my car and and turned on the stereo, it all
suddenly snapped together. It was always in the music, in the
art, in the literature, in dance, and in our hearts. It was already
out there in the universe, all this time, and the butterflies
were to communicate that message to the world with peace, and
love, and humility. To understand the whole story read the paper
entitled Butterfly Magic and the Moody Blues. Hear this plea and
soon we will all be standing around in wonderment with big grins
on our faces and love just oozing out of our hearts and on to
Mother Earth. It's been a long time coming, so let's seize the
moment. Help let it be, let it be.
Love and Peace,
