Jeff Lynne did not have a direct connection with The Moody Blues as a member or collaborator, but he was part of the same musical era and influenced by similar styles. Lynne, known for his work with Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), shared a symphonic rock sound that paralleled the Moody Blues' blend of rock and orchestral elements. Additionally, both bands were associated with the progressive rock movement in the late 1960s and 1970s, contributing to the genre's evolution. While they may not have worked together, their paths crossed in the broader context of rock music during that time.
