Just saw these guys in at the Sausalito Art & Music Festival over Labor Day Weekend. They were fantastic, and seemingly ageless. Really happy for them and their belated success.
A couple of real gentlemen! I've always loved the slightly haunting sound of Colin Blunstone's voice and he hasn't lost it at all...he also has such a lovely speaking voice. I confess to being crazy about his mouth when I was young and he still has those great lips too. They are such a great talent!!!
These guys have spent 50 years singing the same ol' songs - and, at the same time, remaining friends and reasonably sane. They deserve an award for that.
I saw them in Portland Oregon USA and they were stellar. I even covered "the way I feel inside" on my channel. I've got everything they ever put out. Colin's voice is better than ever.
I live in San Francisco and they're going to be at Sausalito (right across Golden Gate Bridge) first week in September. I grew up on 80's music but I LOVE The Zombie's "spooky" sound. Can't wait!
From Philippines to America, the Zombies is on top of my favorites - saw them 3x in Florida, 3rd time I had Meet & Greet, had lovely photo with them, sat on very first row A - money I paid for the privilege was well worth it! Long live the Zombies - Colin & Rod, continue the great journey ... MABUHAY!!😘😊😉💓🎉👍
Colin and Rod obviously a lot older now, but looking and sounding great as always!!!!!!! Colin Blunstone is my biggest hero and a huge influence on me. It's hard to believe it was back in 2001 in the spring or summer of that year I saw him and Rod in NYC at a tiny nightclub and they were amazing. Colin has a lot of songs that people don't know about which are classics such as "I Want To Say A Prayer" especially that whole album Ennismore, the album One Year, well all of them and "I Want To Say A Prayer" and the album its on Echo Bridge are brilliant.Everything new and recent with Rod has been amazing. We need somebody to bring back the power of the 60s and 70s music I mean all of it. Music was going through a lot of good things in the 80s and early 90s it tailed off bad after Kurt Cobain died. A bit scary how all of a sudden 1995 comes along and there's a huge drop off in quality. I never would have said "Rock is nearly dead" until now. The 2000s have been dreadful with most new bands just a big throwaway waste. Listen to the classics instead like The Zombies they speak for themselves!
Wooo! I was born in 1992 and I LOVE Them =) That's awesome that you have reunited and tour! Wow I didn't know stuff about this band until now. Very interesting! God bless you all!
I was too young to know of The Zombies in the 60s, but when I first got into music one of the most memorable iconic distinctive songs was Argent - Hold Your Head Up. Brilliant!!!
Definitely a top 3 favorite band with The Searchers, and The Beatles in the Philippines since I was a teen in 1965. I'm 71 now and still here YouTubing my favorite bands, playing my favorites of them.
Lovely interview...wonderful to see Jim Rodford who sadly died early 2018.... one of the loveliest men you could meet...We are local to The Zombies...seen them many times...last time was Jim’s tribute concert when the 4 surviving band members sang together along with Argent & Arc which if one of Jim’s sons...the other is Zombies drummer...& 2 granddaughters.
I'm a blk american, use too. Watch these. Brits, grps, I knew then. They made it. This big hit. Congr... Colin, blum... you.still a brilliant man, I'm glad.you were. Chosen for. Rock n. Roll hall.fames.they waited. So long the.primes.2019s thats too.longs
Our Band just (finally) at my insistence, tried "Time of the Season" after years of wanting to do it and its easy and sounds mind blowing. I am So glad we did it So thankful to the Zombies for a great, great timeless song.
Sonia Basa may have had something to do with Zombies being extremely popular in the Philippines at that time. She opened her afternoon radio show on DZWS with the song I Love You by the Zombies. Desperately seeking Sonia. :(
The Zombies are playing a worldwide livestream on September 18. veeps.events/TheZombies_YT tickets are only $20. You should see them! They're filming it from Abbey Road Studios in London.Once in a lifetime opportunity!
I'm going to see them tomorrow evening and am ecstatic.It's going to be amazing .Plus I am bring my wife who has no idea what to expect hehe......that's ok
Is there a better reason to actually buy this record? That fact that it mostly goes to them makes me want to buy another copy, like my boy Paul Weller!
Stephanie Kirkpatrick Thanks. Sorry your right. misheard the name. So it is Argent of the song 'Hold your head up'' came out in 1972.(That part i did not have to google. lol. under the artist name 'Argent" . I could recognized the great keyboard sound.

What really decent guys, genuine and not big headed at all.
I know! I was very touched by seeing them so energetic and genuinely happy to be right where they were and looking at the bright side of life.
Zombies underrated. Classics like She's Not There, Tell Her No and Time Of The Season.
Wayne Johanson How are they underrated, their album Odessey And Oracle is one of the greatest albums of all time?
Being a Vietnam Vet, you kept me alive during my tour, So down to earth and you guys still have it. Thank You
Great band. Glad they are still going.
I love The Zombies! One of my all time best bands.

Do yourself a favor and see them. They're excellent live and their newest album is pretty darn good too. Lots of classic Zombie's sound.
all those who sadly missed the broadcast this morning will be so happy finding this! I'm glad I saw it "live".
Love these guys, so unpretentious. And they speak really fondly of the other original members
I love his voice❤️

Great down to earth interview good job!
When music was music
I won't be letting go of my original 1968 copy of the UK album. It's treasure really

The Zombies extraordinarios. Uno de los más grandes grupos de la historia del Rock. Gracias Argent y Colin por su música.
Beechwood Park what a fantastic song.
R.I.P. Paul Atkinson
yay!!!
The Zombies live nowadays sound better than their original recordings in the studio. A great band. Enjoy the clips, buy the cds too.
Was at that stern grove show!
Please come to Pa. when you start touring...
Sonia Basa may have had something to do with Zombies being extremely popular in the Philippines at that time. She opened her afternoon radio show on DZWS with the song I Love You by the Zombies. Desperately seeking Sonia. :(
Colin looks and sounds more and more like Quentin Crisp every year.
These were my guys loved them then and now.Please come to Charlotte North Carolina.
Rock'n Rulez!
