[hide] *1 Life  ==Life[ Edit] == His first band forms Hayward with Marty Wilde and his wife Joyce; The Wild Three; they bring only one single from (Since you've gone). He has a contract with a publishing house, led by record producer Lonnie Donegan. Hayward later regrets that step, because the rights of his songs to 1974 at Donegan's Tyler Music were based and that was just the most successful period in his life. ==Moody Blues[ Edit] == In 1966, Hayward attracted as reinforcement of the Moody Blues. At the same time attracted John Lodge, so that the Icicle lights are complete again after the departure ofDenny Laine and Clint Warwick. Already at the first full Studio album Days of Future Passed is the touch; his compositions Nights in White Satin and Tuesday Afternoon as singles large successes; Even Nightsseveral times. After the Group has exhausted itself in albums and performances takes Hayward in 1973 a sabbatical. In that time, he together with Lodge the album Blue Jays, followed by the single Blue Guitar and a short European tour in which Blue Jays is seen as a surrogate Moody Blues.

After the sabbatical is Hayward from 1978 back to the Moody Blues, but there is also the occasional solo album. The most important in the period after 1974 is his contribution to the album Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds, Forever Autumn and the tracks on The Eve of the War. Wayne, the creator of that album, then produces again Haywards second album Night Flight. More striking is his contribution to the album The Eye of Wendor of the Mandala band; He sings only one track, but is accompanied by the keyboard player, Woolly Wolstenholmeof Barclay James Harvest, at that time called "Poor man's Moody Blues". ==80 's[ Edit] == After the rest stop reduces the interest in the music of Hayward and the Moody Blues; the punk movement is in full swing and who has not understood on their music. In the United States, however, remains very popular, it was not until the end of 1990s the interest drops there.
