Strange Times is the fifteenth and penultimate studio album by the rock band the Moody Blues, released in 1999. The sound features mostly acoustic guitar, slightly processed electric guitar, light organ, flute, and string arrangements, with heavy synthesizer use in the fast-paced opening track, "English Sunset". This was the last Moody Blues album to feature longtime flautist and vocalist Ray Thomas.
This album and the following year's live album Hall of Fame would be the last two Moody Blues albums to contain any reference to the Moody Blues' custom label Threshold Records in their credits.
