To Our Childrens Childrens Children is the fifth studio album by The Moody Blues, released in 1969 on Threshold Records. It is widely regarded as one of the band’s most ambitious and cohesive concept albums, and a landmark of late‑1960s progressive rock.


Conceived as a loose science‑fiction themed work, the album explores ideas of space travel, humanity, and legacy. It was one of the first rock albums recorded using a Mellotron extensively, helping to define the Moody Blues’ lush, symphonic sound.


Key tracks include Gypsy, Watching and Waiting, Candle of Life, Eternity Road, Sun Is Still Shining, and I Never Thought I’d Live to Be a Million. Songwriting contributions come primarily from Justin Hayward and John Lodge, with strong thematic continuity across the record.
