    They also do a great rendition of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"

    The Zombies really had their own thing going on, but their covers, while sometimes not as strong as their best originals (which certainly were good) had the charm of earnest youth and seriously good craftsmanship (hey, these are a bunch of 'kids' from St. Albans, North London in '64/'65). Thank you for posting such a delightful obscurity.

    Hmm.. isn't all that bad. Soul covers weren't really their forte compared to their original stuff, but this gets a pass. Thanks for the upload! In my Motown covers list with 3 other versions!

    They certainly had the talent only if they'd been managed differently. Perhaps it might of made a difference.

      @@justaproject7267 there's no doubt about it the Zombies were a great band they were very underrated and didn't have many hits. But listening to their music you can tell they possessed the musical talent. This group turned professional after 2wks they'd formed because they played at some function and got a recording contract. George Harrison was one of the judges that was on that panel so the Zombies had his approval. It would've been great if they'd had more hits and yet Rod Argent was a great keyboard player. But dispite this the Zombies had a unique sound. Their one of my all-time favorite groups.

      @@justaproject7267 Because of the contest that Joe G. described, The Zombies were pretty much funnelled directly to Parrot Records (I believe). (I don't remember the part about Harrison but it would not surprise me). The fact that The Zombies were recording almost entirely covers after the success of their initial LP is inexplicable. (The Zombies took a questionable tour of the Phillipines and never got paid.) YT often has a post of The Zombies playing their best cover "This Old Heart of Mine" before a Paris TV studio audience. Find it - Colin is having the time of his life and the drummer looses time a bit and speeds up the song. They're living in the moment and enjoying it. But, this Paris tape is approx. four months before The Zombies went to Abbey Road to begin recording O&O. They knew that O&O was a "must win" and, for a long time, it didn't. Rod and Chris put up the money to make the stereo masters which they mixed themselves. (Rod and Chris had the royalty income and the other band members were struggling.) The BBC radio interview recorded around the time O&O was released is very sad. They're open about breaking up the band and the SLOW climb of O&O leaves one of the great questions (what would the follow up have sounded like) unanswered.

      @@ytskeptic6834 There seems to be a theme in the Sixties, where bands went to the phillies but never got paid. Anyhow thank you for the info! i Recently bought a Zombies boxset which included newspapers as sleeve-covers. George did indeed give them a pass.
