Ray Thomas and Mike Pinder, who had played together Hamburg with the Krew Kats decided to form a group with the addition of Denny Laine, who had fronted the Diplomats, Graeme Edge, who had been a member of Gerry Levene and the Avengers, and Eccles, who changed his name to Clint Warwick by putting together the names of his favourite singer, Dionne Warwick, and his favourite actor, Clint Walker.[1] The Moody Blues released one album with Warwick on bass, Go Now - The Moody Blues #1 (USA release on London Records), also released as The Magnificent Moodies on Decca in the UK, with sleeve notes by Donovan.[4] The album yielded the hit single "Go Now", which reached No. 1 in the UK in January 1965, and the Top Ten in the U.S.[1] Warwick took one co-lead vocal on that album with Laine on the track "I've Got A Dream", which featured Thomas on flute). The closing track "'Bye Bye Bird" was issued as an overseas single and became a hit in France. Warwick was also on the EP The Moody Blues issued on Decca in 1964, and appeared on all their Decca singles, beginning with their debut, "Steal Your Heart Away" (1964), then "Go Now", "I Don't Want to Go On Without You", "Everyday", "From The Bottom Of My Heart (I Love You)" (all 1965), plus "Boulevard De La Madeline" (1966) up to "Life's Not Life" in 1966.[1] Warwick's and Laine's era with the Moody Blues was featured on various compilation albums on both vinyl and CD, such as The Moody Blues Collection. A later CD issue of The Magnificent Moodies in 2006 included the rare track "People Gotta Give" (mistitled as "People Gotta Go") - a Pinder-Laine composition from the Boulevard De La Madeline French EP release. Film footage survives of the original era of The Moody Blues performing "Go Now" on BBC TV's The Beat Room (later included in the BBC's Sounds of The Sixties) plus the first single's B-side "Lose Your Money (But Don't Lose Your Mind)" on Ready Steady Go! in August 1964[1] with Warwick and Laine in the line-up, and has been re-screened in recent years. Feeling stressed by touring, Warwick left the band and his music career in 1966 to become a carpenter and spend time with his family.[1][2] Warwick released his first solo CD in 2002, and was working on another one at the time of his death from hepatitis at the age of 63.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite news|last=Perrone|first=Pierre|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/clint-warwick-730513.html|title=Clint Warwick: Bassist with the original line-up of the Moody Blues on their transatlantic hit 'Go Now'|newspaper=The Independent|date=2004-06-03|accessdate=2015-03-09}} {{Moody Blues}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Warwick, Clint}}2. ^1 {{cite web|last=Eder |first=Bruce |url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/the-moody-blues-mn0000404434 |title=The Moody Blues - Music Biography, Credits and Discography |publisher=AllMusic |date= |accessdate=2013-06-29}} 19 : 1940 births|2004 deaths|English bass guitarists|English male guitarists|Male bass guitarists|English rock singers|English rock bass guitarists|British rhythm and blues boom musicians|Musicians from Birmingham, West Midlands|The Moody Blues members|Deaths from hepatitis|English male singers|Disease-related deaths in England|20th-century English singers|English carpenters|English rhythm and blues musicians|Rhythm and blues bass guitarists|English rhythm and blues singers|20th-century bass guitarists |
