{"product_id":"zombies-the-zombies","title":"Zombies THE ZOMBIES - Vinyl-Classic Vinyl Record","description":"In 1966, the Zombies had already realized some success from their debut album, BEGIN HERE, but could not get their initial label, Decca, to release a follow-up. They defected to CBS, for whom they would record their masterwork, ODESSEY AND ORACLE, and, in the interim, Decca put out I LOVE YOU, a singles compilation that never saw US release. THE ZOMBIES (2004) marks the first American pressing of the aforementioned album, buoyed by a generous number of bonus tracks (additional A- and B-sides from the group's Decca years). While the conceptual baroque-pop sophistication of ODESSEY was still down the road, the phase represented by THE ZOMBIES shows the group to be one of the finest of the British Invasion-era bands--at their best they were fully on par with the Beatles' contemporaneous work.\nColin Blunstone's smokey, fragile tenor and Rod Argent's jazz\/R\u0026amp;B-tinged electric keyboards drive the Zombies' sound, as the disc moves through familiar hits (\"She's Not There,\" \"I Love You\") and more obscure tracks (the airy, touching \"The Way I Feel Inside,\" the swirling, atmospheric \"Gotta Get a Hold of Myself\"). While the absence of CBS material keeps this from being a definitive anthology, it's as fine a slice of mid-'60s British pop as one could desire.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Zombies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53696305234186,"sku":"G6PHPH-ECSM-00","price":35.63,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/5314\/3818\/files\/Zombies-THE-ZOMBIES_kO2hV.jpg?v=1789206330","url":"https:\/\/classicvinylrecord.shop\/products\/zombies-the-zombies","provider":"Classic Vinyl Record","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
