Delightful collection of early demos for various songs, including This Will Be Our Year & Bunny Lake promo, rehearsal, home demos and other fun stuff. There are songs I hadn't heard before. And of course there's the great later songs, some alternative versions, Odessey & Oracle is included & too many other delights to mention. And I didn't even mention the included book! Lots of pics from the early years. If you love this fabulous band like I do, you be so happy to have a copy of this jewel.

Once upon a time, there were all at once several bands making music of such quality and importance that it is difficult to describe to anyone too young to have been there. In a modern society where anyone can have for free 5000 songs of low importance and fidelity loaded into their phone, it seems unreal now. The Beatles. The Dave Clark Five. The Kinks and yes, The Zombies. The Zombies were much unappreciated in their homeland, but conquered America and much of the world in the mid-1960's. If you have ever fallen under their spell, as I have, this box set will remind you why. It will all come back; well-crafted pop songs expertly making use of minor keys, fantastic keyboard solos played seemingly effortlessly by Rod Argent, complimented by the angelic vocals of Colin Blunstone-a man who I could listen to sing the phone book. The Zombies, in a revamped lineup, are still going strong touring to this day [2011], and we are the better for it. This set is about 4 hours of pop music heaven, and it will bring you back to a wonderful time that is sadly, probably gone forever. Highly Recommended electdrumsRead full review
It's all here. The complete Zombies collection. The well-known hits, the obscure hidden gems and the timeless Odessey & Oracle album - the Zombies final work before their untimely break-up. This four CD collection takes us through the evolution of the band - from the early beginnings through performances on the BBC and finally the surreal and thought-provoking epic album Odessey & Oracle that gained the Zombies wide-spread acclaim and today is considered one of the signature albums of the 1960's. A must-have CD collection for anyone who wants to experience the Zombies beyond their classic hits of She's Not There, Tell Her No and Time of the Season.
I only knew of the Zombies from three or four hits during the 60's. After hearing a single cd greatest hits recording, I wanted more. This collection provides all their songs of this era, along with a book of their history and details of the songs. Well worth it.

This set is a must for anyone who loves the music of the sixties British Invasion and especially the Zombies, a group that was way ahead of its time. This collection contains all the hits, plus so much more! The covers of classics are a real treat. I listen to this in the car contstantly.
