Time Traveller is a box set by British rock band The Moody Blues, released in 1994.[1]

The set is presented in chronological order, beginning with the 1966 addition of

Soccer Rocks the Globe
.

Originally released as a 5-CD set, the fifth CD contains "This is the Moment" plus eight live recordings that were leftover from the original 1993 release of A Night at Red Rocks. These tracks were later included in the 2003 deluxe re-release of that album.

In 1996 Time Traveller was re-released as a 4-CD box set with CD 5 removed, thus this version of the set ends at the 1991 Keys of the Kingdom album.
