It Happened 50 Years Ago: The Moody Blues “Go Now!”
Birmingham, England-based band The Moody Blues have hit the Top 40 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart 13 times, with three of those singles reaching the Top 10. The band’s first Top 40 hit, which was also their first Top 10 hit, came with their very first appearance on the chart. Exactly 50 years ago, that song — “Go Now!” — climbed to its peak position of number 10, where it would spend one week.
