Swiss keyboard virtuoso Patrick Moraz - who briefly replaced 
Rick Wakeman in Yes for the 'Relayer' album - has now been 
picked to fill Mike Pinder's shoes in the Moody Blues.
Pinder, currently secluded in Canada, has refused to tour
with the group, which is on the brink of a big U.S. blitz.  
Says Moodies drummer Graeme Edge: "We are not closing 
the door on Mike, but by his refusal to tour he has walked 
out through it.  If this current lineup is as successful as 
indications suggest, then the public can expect a lot more 
action from the Moody Blues."
