COLIN BLUNSTONE (THE ZOMBIES)

IN THIS CHEERFUL NEW EDITION OF THE MOUTHCAST COLIN BLUNSTONE DISCUSSES BEING PART OF THE BRITISH BEAT INVASION OF AMERICA IN THE EARLY TO MID-SIXTIES.

He looks back at The Zombies’ inclusion in a Christmas 1964 Revue show in New York alongside Ben E King, Dionne Warwick and other ‘legends’, a mere six months after the band were playing small shows around their home town St Albans. He also reflects on the enduring debut single SHE’S NOT THERE and classic post-split hit TIME OF THE SEASON, and talks about the resurgence of interest in the band over the last five years or so – including the enthusiastic endorsement of Paul Weller. The Zombies are about to undertake a brief run of UK dates.
