The fact that Colin could still sing like this at 74 years old is astounding. His voice is still amazing.
In their 70s and still nailing the harmonies! And Rod still killing it on the keyboards! So amazing.
I don't think Rod Argent has ever even *heard* of arthritis! His fingers are so supple. He must still practice hours every days.
This is an old comment, but I want to revive it because ROD IS THE MAN!!!
As a keyboardist, Rod Argent was one of several that I idolized as a kid. Good to see that he's still a wizard on the keys.
He's a legend!!! Greatest Keyboardist of all time!! Ray Manzerek comes in at a close second
I had no idea that he was the guy behind the band Argent. cool
@@kristinadospoy7347 I love Rod Argent, but I can not pick the greatest, there are so many, Keith Emerson, Rick Wakeman, Jimmy Smith, Jerry Corbetta, Barbara Dennerlein, and Rhoda Scott come to mind. I just have to say he is among the greatest, and one of my many favorites!
@@jjr007 Manfred Mann was good on keyboards.
@@kristinadospoy7347 - Yeah, sorry, there's no "greatest" of anything when it comes to art.
We owe the popularity of the phrase "who's your daddy?" to this song.
First time I heard it was this song.
And "heavy metal" thunder...to Steppenwolf.👍
You are so correct. Cancel the younger generation. They have no power here.
@@tomthalon8956 you know you can’t cancel the whole generation
Wait ? Really? Like, REALLY? I Can't tell if you're only joking or being sarcastic
Colin looks and sounds great for being 74 at this time. It's about time they inducted the Zombies they are an awesome talent.
And very underrated
Inducted 2019
Almost 60 years later and still sounds absolutely great!
They _still_ sound pretty damn good!
They're stop on!
About time the zombies get the credit they well deserve!
Definitely!
I know 4 of The Zombies that is Steve Soren Rod and Colin
Who was the woman that was standing next to Chris White at the Hall of Fame induction ceremony?
@@squdineycarolsims4825 Lucky!
the zombie
The organ solo was outstanding.
Rod Argent ,one of Rock’s great keyboardist
@@ser010267 Thanks for the info!
@@RC-ql5lp what "info"?
@@ser010267 And front man of the band Argent. I think their only big hit was "Hold Your Head Up," but it was a truly great song. Still is.
Rod Argent still kicks major ass on the B3....
Stevie Nicks and Sheryl Crow as friends sitting at a table watching a band older than both of them is pretty surreal.
Saw them in Seattle in 2013. I didn't expect much...but discovered they are the longest standing band in history...and the lead singer is a fantastic storyteller...introducing every song with a super interesting story. And they played like the stars they are.
nah... the stones are the longest standing band in history
@@RadicalR0nnie Nope. The Stone formed in 62. The Zombies in 61.
@@johnliebenthal the zombies have broken up a few times throughout their career.. so if you take that into consideration their journey isn’t that long in comparison to the stones
@@RadicalR0nnie Also golden earring is from 1961 and they stayed together all the while so that is possibly the oldest band
@@johnliebenthal no fuckin way!
I'm glad they were still alive to see it, well overdue
Just sad that Paul Atlkinson - their original guitar player - did not live to be there.
Except Paul Atkinson..😢 and Jim Rodford too...😢
These guys are so badass - one of the greatest songs ever - The vibe, the lyrics, the bassline, and that Hammond!!
Nothing like the sound of a Hammond!
Them older actually seems to add a darker version to the song very intriguing
This is a reminder of the differences from one generation to the next. When I was a kid, people in their 70s were born at the beginning of the 1900s and certainly didn't rock out like this. Fast forward... These guys are in their 70s and rocking out in ways that I never thought people in their 70s could rock out.
What an outstanding performance. Colin’s voice is still so strong.
You Are Right Steve, Colin is Awesome!! Love This Song
YES ,He sings GREAT ! I know people his age and younger who can't talk correctly !! 👍
why is he oversinging so hard though
@@animalbancho1726 cause he's old and too proud to lower the key
It is. It seems he took care of himself and by the sound of it, I'm near certain he's taken vocal lessons and kept up with the exercises. And good for him, he's a real pro.
How the hell did they manage to nail this performance 60 years after the fact? Unbelievable. I’m in awe.
they probably practiced after being told they were inducted into the R&R HoF...
By nail...do you mean they fucked it up so bad it is now a dead body in a casket?
My guess is they got sober earlier than other bands😂
Professionalism *gobs* of talent, and playing the song many, many times. Not to mention the fact that an enthusiastic, receptive audience will energize almost any performance. When you're playing to celebrate your own induction to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, you definitely bring your "A" game.
@TroyArn Simple - because 60 years ago (unlike today) you had to have ACTUAL TALENT in order to be successful, well for at least more than one hit single, anyway. TRUE TALENT doesn't go away. Have you ever seen a doo wop revival on PBS? Ever wonder how those singers, most of whom are pushing 80 still have their voices? Because they had (and still have) TALENT!!! Peace out...
Mr. Argent's keyboard introduced jazz to a whole generation of us in latter 60s
Besides Argent, the was also Brian Auger and Oblivion Express (with or without Julie Driscoll) who brought jazz fusion to mainstream rock. Blended rather nicely...
OMG the keyboards...what talent. I was a young teen when this song came out and I bought the 45 and played it a thousand times. Later in life I rediscovered The Zombies, and through cassettes, to CDs, to digital the magic endures.
Another favorite! Cannot believe I was preteen back then. We just had the best dang music ever! Still gives me goosebumps! Cannot believe it took this long for them to be recognized.
You are so right, Kitty Vaughn!!
Colin singing “Tell Her No” on TOPs was so cool; I wanted to be as cool as him….and now ironically…more than 50 years later, I am!
What a keyboard player man, he rules
Colin is pitch perfect after all of these years! Amazing!!
Thank you. I never got a chance to see them but I grew up in that era. I'm 71 and the memories are rushing back right now.
the mid 60s to the mid/late 70s was the best music EVER......and, these guys were part of it...
Truly One of the top 25 Songs from the 60's
Easily
Top Ten in my book. Good memories.... really good memories.
@@roberthamill2451 care to list your top 10?
Simply a phenomenal rendition, complete with the great Rod Argent keyboards!!
Its almost impossible to appreciate Rod Argent’s talent on the organ by simply listening to the music. Watching him play real treat. Not just this song, but any of their music. On his other band Argent, you can enjoy his skills on the song Hold Your Head Up. Keyboard virtuoso Rick Wakeman was impressed with Rod’s work on that song which says a lot right there.
Nexus by Argent is a great album.
@@markusantonio4866 Hold Your Head Up came out when I was about 9 years old. At that time my mother used to take us kids grocery shopping with her every month. She did her shopping at Gemco which was the 1970s version of a Walmart super-center. If us kids behaved ourselves, mom would stop at the music section and let each of us but a 45rpm record (simply called a 45). One of those trips I bought the song Hold Your Head Up, which I must have listened to a thousand times.
I had a teacher that let her students bring a record to school every Friday if we behaved during the week. She would play the records during class which was kind of cool. That was back when bringing a 45 to school didn’t end with kids being killed.
Damn, I just realized I am at that old age where I am telling stories about the good ol’ days
... 🙋♀️🤗💞💪
One of the biggest band on the sixties
not really.
One of my favorite songs ever! The drums soooooo good and Rod and Colin are just stellar!!!
Stellarrrr......
Zomies never received the acclaim they deserved. Songs were thrilling and sexy.
You sure got that right about them not receiving the acclaim they deserve!! I was a kid when they were going and while others were thinking the beatles and the stones were so great the bands i liked and still do were gerry and the pacemakers and the zombies and the who.
Blunstone has as much power in his voice as ever.
no way
ed rader Way. It’s noticeable he has aged but also that he took singing lessons and probably a voice coach. His original singing was soft, almost whispered and nice sounding because he was young. Today’s voice although it lacks of the coolness of the younger voice is way more powerful and controlled.
@@carl_anderson9315 oh ok
@@carl_anderson9315 It must be way harder to hit those high notes with his chest voice like he does now than with his head voice though surely? The guy sounds insanely good for his age, as someone just discovering The Zombies, I actually prefer his voice nowadays.
Yeah his voice almost sounds more powerful and able to hit higher notes
Holy crap they sound fantastic 50 YEARS LATER
The 1960s come crashing back . Love it. 💙
The Zombies still kick ass.
What a great song. These guys still have their ‘chops’.
After all these years,
Colin Blunstone and Rod Argent are still Awesome!!
Youngins have no idea the atmosphere that this music came out in. It was spectacular !❤✌
Im 17 and I basically grew up with this stuff, my dad had a CD with all the best songs, they were my favorites back then. 👌🏻
I'm young but I fucking love Odessey and Oracle.
Don't worry Kevin, Some youngins still know and acknowledge the oldies. Gotta love them. They don't make it like they used too.
I, a youngin, absolutely adore this music and wish I could visit those times, get high with the hippies and free love movement and enjoy the music with them.
I really hope that time travel is included as one of the gifts of the afterlife. Heaven is alot of things in my mind, and one of them is being able to visit time periods I am a fan of but never got to experience....
Killing it, on the keyboards!
Much respect to all, but these guys were the best of the class this year.
These guys should have been in the Hall of Fame LOOOOOONG before 2019! And this is coming from a youngster...I was born in 1973!
The Zombies are AMAZING!!!
Priceless! Keyboardist Extraordinaire Rod Argent went on to Form the Band Argent in the 70's Hold your head high made it to the Top 10
yeah Argent was GREAT !
There is a live Argent album where he encored with a heavy metal version of "Time of the Season" that was nearly a train wreck but listenable if you're a fan of the song or of Argent.
Hold Your Head Up
So ahead of its time back in the day. Just awesome to see them again!
Musically and lyrically, they remind me of Steely Dan. They transcend labels.
Colin's voice is like fine wine it gets better with age
My goodness!! A bunch of all timers coming alive in such fantastic and exciting way. Only talent and rock 'n' roll can do that. That Rod Argent guy is something else, an underrated keyboardist...
This is just timelessmusic that will never be duplicated but wll always live òn. Enjoy all those musical gems that are still out for everybody to listen too.kd .
I saw this when it was broadcast on HBO. Wow!!!!! I was amazed at how incredibly great they sounded. Groove, B3 organ, vocals...Loved it!!!
Listened to this in the summer that I was 13 & in love with a brown eyed brunette !!! I always think of her when I hear it & I guess I never fell out of love with her or the song !!! HAPPINESS !!! 4 ever
RIP Jim Rodford (bassist) who passed in '18 after suffering a horrible fall. I'm sure he's missed
Paul Atkinson is just as sadly missed too, he passed on in 2004 from complications from cancer at 58. He and Jim are greatly missed
So sad they died without this recognition
@@ariktrejos that IS very sad... Wait. He died the YEAR before this?
Is THAT WHY they got inducted? Like, was it an apology/oversight like "oops ! Saw you in the news, we just realized you guys aren't in here yet. Sorry it's only ½ a yous now"
RIP to Jim & Rod 🙏🎶🎤🎹🎶 Zombies + psychedelic = 1960s
Rod can rock those keys!!! Got me vibin’ in my bed. One of my favorite bands of all time can still rock it.
These guys can still kick ass after more than 50 years! I love it!
How the hell do you even go about writing something like that? It's incredible . The claps, the ahhhh, the vocal harmony magically ending on that giant major chord... It's so great
Stellar , Collin has mastered his voice early on , that’s from an interview were he has pinned his career to one vocal coach that contributed to his talent with simple vocal training for daily tuning . That’s the secret as a lead vocal man tells and shows how it’s done . Commend these men of the lead role of bring us their ultimate gift through the ages , thank you so so much !
I never tire of this song and, "She's Not There" ------------------ MAGNIFICENT!
I feel the same way
Check out Beechwood Park by them :)
Wow! Not every band can perform so well like this later in life. Outstanding! The songs at this award ceremony stand the test of time. Love seeing how happy they are doing what they do.
They sound incredible. Why'd it take so long to get them in?
Because people are stupid.
Politics man, it's all politics
Because they weren't American. Look at some of the bands inducted, They haven't a patch on bands like the Zombies, but because they are American they get selected.
They were too busy inducting Bon Jovi
Because they were too busy inducting groups like the Beastie Boys.
Wow still great harmonies from these genius blokes ,,ive adored them since their beginning ,, until eternity i reckon lol xx
These Zombies never give up. Timeless music and sounding as fresh as the day it was recorded. Damn that guy can sing.
One of the bands on my bucket list to see in concert! 😍
U better hurry
Fantastic performance from the band of old guys. They getting better with age - like good wine!
DOMINATING!!! THESE GUYS KILLED IT!!!!! JUST CRUSHED EVERYONE,SO COOL
It feels really great to watch the.zombies and hear their song for.the first time..
Salute.to the Zombies..
I feel like im in old days..God bless you the Zombies..
Watching from.Balungao Pangasinan Philippines.
Music connects us all..
🖤🖤
God bless The Zombies, greetings from Mexico
Some music is just timeless, people of all ages getting up and dancing to this classic.
Jep even my son is dancing on this song and he is 6 years old ✌
I'm 73-year-old Japanese.
" She's Not There" The Zombies.
Around 17 years old, it was asked by the radio.
I appealed me of a high school student, and just also resonated and was moved!
Thank you!The Zombies!!
Those keyboard solos were awesome
Love the Zombies
My God! Rod Argent is still so good!
Rod said in his acceptance speech that the band broke up in the mid 60’s because of poor sales.Yet he also said years ago in an interview that there was tension because he and Chris earned so much more from royalties as the songwriters.They still remained friends and are still great and relevant with their latest cds.
Where are the bands like them anymore. WE HAVE ARE MEMORIES
It's SO GOOD, I'm close to crying..!
wow it is amazing. I passed my summers listening to this song in the 60ies and I am amazed to hear such a performance so many years later ! Bravo to the Zombies !!!
Rod Argent has always been one of the finest keyboardists in music, very unique style and innovative as well.
I'm genuinly stunned! Fantastic performance! 👏👏👏 God bless
I love this song. It came out before I was born and I’m getting old myself now, but to me, it’s the epitome of the 60’s.
Great Music. Great to see the guys having fun performing their classics! Award Well-Deserved.
I saw the Zombies on the Oracle and Odessey 50th anniversary tour and Colin's voice was amazing.
Their music is Dynamic, every arrangement. So unique! The Induction Long Over Due. Thank You!
These guys still JAM. Love to see it
One of the best songs of the 60s.
Love how the keys where extended on this. Sounded awesome!
How can you not love these guys.
"with pleasured hands"; now that's a lyric !
Got to give credit where credit is due, they sound pretty damn good after all these years after this song originally came out, Kudos, Bravo!
Aloha, salutations to The Zombies and sooo thankyou 🎶. Get well soon Rod, total and speedy recovery 🎹💜.
And THAT IS how it is done. Rock on Zombies!
Had never heard this song until a holiday to Las Vegas which found us in Fremont Street under the musical roof and this was the first track played in the 60s montage. Superb. Downloaded straight away and listen often. Such a unique song and it’s great when these 1960s groups show they’ve still got it, compared with 99% of modern dross that’s out there with swearing, obscenity and near naked/ disgusting videos.
Never seen them included on the Gold 60s shows that tour the UK which is a big oversight.
Love the back beat. They sound great. Always liked the band Argent too...
The album this is from, Odessy and Oracle, is really strong. I put it in the same rank as the Beatles Sargent Pepper or Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys
One of only maybe 20% of bands who still sound good in their 70s. Great perfomance.
They were great on the Moody Blues cruises a few years ago, and they are great here!
Zombies need Humans. Humans need the Zombies. Rod, wishing you and family smooth as possible, much love and thank you.
So great
Nothing lost with time with those guys! Beautiful.
Class band. Always have been.
What great performances! Younger bands take note!
Bands like this should be getting more credit . I’m happy to see them doing this . 💜
such a cool song :)
Im soo in love with this song! Great performance. Love them!!❤❤
These guys still sound very good.
Spot on gentlemen and thank you for all the years of superb songs ❤✌🇺🇸❤❤❤❤❤❤
