The HOAXMAN's name is Ryan....  He posted a message on November 21st, 
on the Higher and Higher message board.  It sounds like he created it 
in one night.  (Nov 20th? ... See below)

OK, it isn't really the Moody Blues -- it is performed by me.

The track is London Is Behind Me, which some of you might know as the 
Justin Hayward single that came out before he joined the Moody Blues. 
I have always liked the melody of this song and last night I was 
thinking: what if the Moody Blues had re-recorded this song, say in 
early 1968? So I did my best impression of the 68-era Moody Blues 
that I could and this is the result. It comes complete with 
Mellotron, trademark harmonies, 12-string acoustic, double tracked 
lead vocals, and even samples of Graeme Edge's drums!

To download the track, go here:

then right click the link and choose Save Target As.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Ryan
