The Young & Moody Band was a UK Blues Rock band from the late 1970s to the early 1980s, headed by Status Quo co-writer Bob Young and Whitesnake guitarist Micky Moody.
The band started under the name "Young & Moody", releasing a self-titled album on Magnet Records in 1977. Later they changed their name to "The Young & Moody Band". Their 1981 single "Don't Do That" also featured Lemmy from Motörhead, Cozy Powell and The Nolans. Arguably their most famous piece was the track 'These Eyes' which was used in a U.K. jeans commercial (Circa 1981). Graham Bonnet (ex Rainbow (band) did the vocals (but not on the single) and the lyrics 'these eyes' were replaced with the word 'Levis'. Ed Hamilton ('Night Games') wrote it. Both tracks were available as singles on the 'Bronze' label and featured on the compilation album 'A Quiet Night In'.
