Unlike today, the bands from my era, the 60's, could sing and play instruments without autotune and special effects, like the Beatles. It's nice for this 70 year old to see you younger generation discovering the great music that I grew up with.

@LesCish Год назад

I find it hard to like newer music, too. But it's ironic that in the film being watched, the Zombies are clearly lip syncing. My parents' generation said the same thing about rock and roll. Just one more version of 'kids these days!'

@eclconsulting 3 года назад

The Zombies were big in the 60's, like The Animals. Music videos weren't really a thing then, but this was perfect. The song is about a woman who is perfect looking on the outside, but inside, there's nothing there. The woman in the video just sits there looking perfect, not moving, suggesting nothing inside. And the ending of the song shows there's nothing more to say. It's over. Next song from the Zombies should be Time of the Season.

The sixties, of course. The decade that exploded with the best music ever composed. The song has a haunting quality, and it is a warning. There is a sense of sadness. It is all the minor chords and soaring vocals that express yearning so fervently. The organ is so jazzy and prominent and the bass plays like a lead guitar. Again, it is just another example of brilliance from the time.

@loilt5091 2 года назад

Colin Blunstone is easily one of the greatest, overlooked & underrated voices in rock history. Rod Argent's keys are also one the earliest examples of jazz, in 60's popular music. Their fellow British Invasion rivals, the Beatles, were having a Hard Days Night in the summer of '64, when the Zombies, She's Not There, hit the charts. At the moment, they were more musically sophisticated, their harmonies rivaled them as well...truly, ahead of their time. Ironically, Odessey & Oracle, their '67 masterpiece & swan song, was recorded at Olympic Studios, literally as the Beatles were exiting, having just completed Sgt. Pepper. Time of the Season, was on that album & not released as a #1 hit until 1969, about a year and a half after they'd already disbanded. I've seen 1000's of live music acts over the decades, but the only triple standing ovation, (for Time of the Season), during the Zombies' 2nd Invasion, March 15, 2007...42 years since they were last in town. That same day, I met 2 women while standing in line, for the show. One of them was initially shy, but when we started talking about the Zombies, she really came to life, asking me if I'd seen them last time they played in town? Puzzled, having missed it, I enquired when this was? 1965, (I turned 5 that year)...she then produced photographic evidence of the two girlfriends posing with both Colin & Rod, outside the venue, at that very show‼️❤ ☆ Check out what many feel should've also been a hit from, Odessey & Oracle; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-afrdo2qneoI.html

@sinenominecc Год назад

Complete agreement on Blunstone's voice. Zombies were a unique sound in the British invasion, and there has not been another group that has sounded like them since.

@shyphyre 3 года назад

"She's Not There" and The Animals "House of the Rising Sun" were both released in the summer of 1964 during the British Invasion. That is why they have a similar groove. As for the video with the girls, this was before MTV and music videos. This is probably a clip when they performed on Shindig or Hullaballo, two teen age dance shows that featured popular music groups of the time.

@jonathanlocke6404 3 года назад

Most of the "performance" videos you will see from this era are likely from broadcast television. The bands would mostly lipsync to the actual recording of their song, and they would have little to no say in how they were presented on television. I imagine most of them saw the set they were to perform on for the first time maybe that afternoon at rehearsal. There would be a director and a set designer and maybe a choreographer who would have come up with the ideas for the stage and maybe moves for dancers...

@827dusty 3 года назад

I think this is from 1965. This is still considered one of the great "Classic Rock" songs ever written and recorded. The Zombies were considered to be ahead of their time as far as the music they created. They were wonderful musicians, just listen to the Bass line, and the great Keyboard work. Even the vocals are top notch. Great Band.

@jamesnoble6845 3 года назад

Wow, I am freaking old. The Zombies were the very first live band I ever heard, and this was the song they performed first. It was at the Paramount Theater in Times Square, New York City, August of 1964. The Zombies were followed by Eric Burdon and The Animals, and the show closed with The Dave Clark Five. I was eleven. Oh, and the ticket cost two dollars and fifty cents.

In the mid-1960s in the UK, there was a "Mod" fashion movement, which had some sophisticated, experimental clothes, and more music featuring organs and electric pianos. Some of it had a contemporary (for its time) Jazz influence to its sound. Although bands like The Beatles, The Kinks, and The Animals had the "Mod" look in their public wardrobe, their music was completely different, focusing on their inspiration by American Rock, R & B, early-Soul, and Blues music. For an unconventional take on "Mod" music, check out the 1964 song, "I Can't Explain", by The Who. After the release of this single, the group quickly changed the focus of their sound to harder-edged Rock music. If the both of you want to listen to some more organ-based Rock music, check out the 1959 Rock instrumental, "The Happy Organ", by Dave "Baby" Cortez.

Just saw The Zombies in concert two days ago. It was fantastic. Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone, both original members, and 78 years old, are still killing it. Blunstone still has that smooth tenor voice, and can still hit all the high notes. Rod Argent is just a badass keyboard player, and makes that Hammond B3 wail.

The Zombies were part of what became known as "The British Invasion." In 1963-64, The Beatles came to America from Britain, and overnight, the Rock and Roll landscape completely changed. When they appeared on the weakly Sunday night Variety show, called "The Ed Sullivan Show" at 8 pm every Sunday evening, almost every tv in the country, watched that show religiously. The show featured acts, that had something for every age group in the family, so there was something for gramma and Grampa, Mom and dad, and for the kids, it was usually a Rock and Roll Band. After The Beatles did what they did, it was a never ending stream of British Rock Bands and artists every week on the show. The Rolling Stones, Herman's Hermits, and on and on. There were American Bands and artists as well, but that first appearance of The Beatles started the "British Invasion."

@Blue-qr7qe 3 года назад

That's 45 rpm (rotations per minute). Two songs: A side and B side.The entire song was laid into a groove which spiraled inward from the record's outer edge. A needle traveled in that groove and picked up vibrations (which were the recorded imprint of the song). This signal was then amped and sent to the speakers. Interesting that the words "groove", "amped", and "vibe" found their musical birthplace in a record player. LP was another term for an album. It meant Long Play. It was larger than a 45, and rotated at 33 and ⅓ times per minute. Usually 5 or 6 songs on each side.

The Zombies were finally inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2019 and they performed live. It was awesome! This song is on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time I don't usually pay attention to music videos because they tend to take away from MY interpretation of a song and most music videos are not that great. Some music videos are so bad that it almost ruins the song. So, I rarely pay attention to them unless they really enhance a song but, those are rare.

@kenchristie9214 3 года назад

Rolling Stones "500 Greatest" loses credibility when the top two songs are Like A Rolling Stone and (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. A lot of diabolical garbage got in ahead of absolute classics.

@@northernlight2598 The simple fact is the Rolling "Greatest" 500 contains a lot of crap while more worthy songs were neglected. The fact that the top two songs centred around Rolling Stone is testament to that.

I was twelve years old when this song dropped onto local analog AM radio stations. It was different alright, and I loved it. Went happily down that rabbit hole following everything they did. Beautiful music takes me back a bit.

F.Y.I. The lead singer, Colin Blunstone, years later sang 'Old and Wise' for the Alan Parsons Project. He always had a mystical sound to his voice. Try 'Old and Wise', it ends with a banger of a sax solo.

Thanks for the recommend. I'll be checking it out. Maybe report back. I love a great sax solo.

Checked it out, the sax was similar to 'Year of the Cat'. This is my recommend for a sax solo... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b2AlqTfQ8Mc.html

Another song with a similar quality was Spooky by Classics IV. Also, someone that I especially think that Amber would love is Nick Drake. He had a kind of whispery voice but in his case it was very warm and emotional. And his guitar playing was incredible. Pink Moon, Saturday Sun and Cello Song are all phenomenal. His best known song is Pink Moon.

The Zombies are an English rock band formed in the early 1960s in Saint Albans and led by keyboardist and vocalist Rod Argent and vocalist Colin Blunstone. The group had a British and American hit in 1964 with "She's Not There". Both singers are still active today.

@dennisloveland498 3 года назад

Gerry and the Pacemakers are another great British group from this time era. My fav by them is Ferry Cross the Mersey Musical performances pre- 1980s are generally performances from TV shows. A few special performances may have been made for TV (like Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody) but the era of music videos as we know them hadn't started yet.
