The music of Colin Blunstone, Rod Argent, Chris White, Hugh Grundy and Paul Atkinson, who make up the Zombies, will get a deep listen here on Pop Goes the 60s.

So underrated. Vocally alone they're a cut above most.
"She's Not There" remains an amazing mid-60s classic! Great work Matt to make the call of profiling this group!
Highly underrated band. That first album didn’t have a single bad song on it. Thanks Matt for another great documentary on another great band.
Loved the unique sound of The Zombies. "Summertime" is a unknown gem, probably my favorite rendition of the Gershwin tune.
I have always felt that Colin Blunstone had one of the best voices in the business.
One of the most underrated bands of the 60s.
As much as I love The Beatles I’m gonna have to say The Zombies are my Favorite Band Their sound is so different from mixtures of Jazz, R&B,Pop, Rock and Roll,Baroque Pop I’m so happy The Hall of Fame inducted them.
One of my favorite 60's British Invasion bands...Argent's keyboards, Blunston's vocals...they were a haunting, compelling combination. And those harmonies....oh, those harmonies! Amazing. They dabble in jazz, romantic pop, blues. Just a great band with a great sound & great songs!!! 👍
That is one of my favorite bands; they got inducted into the RnR Hall of Fame way too late. The bass player had died recently and didn’t get to see it. Sad.
Colin Blunstone had a seriously charismatic voice -- my son sings and plays guitar and everyone says he sounds just like Colin. Thanks for this,
That is true greatness... Rod planning to sing what he wrote
Their later stuff had such a gorgeous,autumnal feel to it.Great band, Great upload..
Since first hearing the Zombies - decades ago - I got to know their few top radio hits quite well. In my head, I always thought; "the rest of their stuff has gotta be really good." In the midst of collecting other bands, I didn't get around to dig deep in to the rest of their catalog until I was in my late 40s. I continue to be blown away by these guys, and I even deeply respect their work from 1990 on out. It's amazing the struggles that this band endured, we're very lucky to have them around today. Totally worthy of their place in the rock and roll hall of fame.
I was lucky enough to interview Colin Blunstone a couple of years ago for a documentary film on the late, great Clifford T.Ward..Colin really is the nicest gentleman you could wish to meet..and after we had finished filming he took us all to a spot by the canal behind his house and we spent an hour feeding the ducks and chatting about absolutely everything except himself ..no big ego or idea of himself as a star..and genuinely humble...a day I will always remember
Saw the Zombies live several years back in Albany, NY. One of my favorites.
Sometimes one unique voice makes all the difference. Timeless.
Ah, man...thanks so much for this! When I was introducing my teenage son to the Beatles he found my old Zombies record, which I admit was so scratchy I was embarrassed, and ended up buying a new version at a used record store because he was so impressed! Thanks for this...this, the Banke...you are hitting all my faves!
“Tell her no” supposedly held some type of record for “the most negative song of all time” because of the number of times “No” was repeated
About 15 years ago, was my first of about 7 Zombies concerts. What a special night that was, having since connected with several people who were at that same show. Considering the 1000's of artists I've seen live, they recieved the only triple standing ovation I've ever witnessed; for, Time of the Season!!! There were 2 older women ahead of me in the outside lineup. We started talking & the quiet one got immediately animated when the Zombies topic came around.
OMG their "The Look of Love" sounds excellent! It's perfect for them!
