Nightwing’s rocked-up version of the moody blues song:

UK’s unsung hard rock heroes’ final album. Nightwing were unfortunately one of the “”lesser”” known bands of the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal) scene, and indeed, probably weren’t even considered as a rightful member of the movement as they tended to veer in a more progressive/hard rock keyboard orientated direction, much the same as Magnum, Pendragon, Pallas and others, although they could certainly rock with the best of them. The band’s roots go back to the late seventies when they evolved out of Strife, an early to mid seventies hard rock trio who recorded a great album in 1978 called  Back to Thunder  and it is available here at the Yperano site on white label and full picture sleeve vinyl LP
