IN MEMORY OF JOHN LODGE

As long-serving co-vocalist and bassist with The Moody Blues, John Lodge helped keep the Moodies' flame burning even after the band had stopped touring. His distinctive falsetto harmonies and bass-playing helped shape the band's iconic sound and cement their status. In addition to gigging right up to his unexpected death in October at the age of 82, he also released a handful of solo albums, including his 2023 updated version of Days Of Future Passed, which was praised by critics and fans alike.

Steven Wilson, Gavin Harrison, Lava's Andy Karp and scriptwriter Mike Bennion reflect on the journey that took Porcupine Tree from playing to 30 people to filling 1,500-capacity venues and even scoring a ride in Neil Peart's Aston Martin.
