Rough Trade Essential

The Zombies are an English rock band that was founded in 1962 in St Albans, Herts, England. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
The original members included Rod Argent on keyboards and vocals, Paul Atkinson on guitars, Chris White on bass and vocals, Colin Blunstone as the lead vocalist, and Hugh Grundy on drums.
The current line-up consists of Colin Blunstone as the lead vocalist, Rod Argent on keyboards and vocals, Tom Toomey on guitars and vocals, Søren Koch on bass and vocals, and Steve Rodford on drums.

One of the most enduring long-players to come out of the entire British psychedelic boom, mixing trippy melodies, ornate choruses, and lush mellotron sounds with a solid hard rock base, but it was overlooked completely in England and barely got out in America...

It was neglected until the single "Time of the Season",&nbsp;culled from the album, topped the charts nearly two years after it was recorded, by which time the group was long disbanded.

Odessey and Oracle was intended as a final statement, a bold last hurrah, having worked hard for three years only to see the quality of their gigs decline as the hits stopped coming.
