The Zombies were why I signed with Ken Jones and Joe Roncoroni, their producers; Rod and Colin didn't know that until I told them at a funeral a couple of years ago. |

"They’d taken the stage early in order to play longer. There was a hard curfew. This flummoxed me. Usually bands, especially older acts at free or soft ticket shows, want to get on and get off, it’s about the check. But the Zombies were giving a performance. With Rod Argent and sometimes Colin Blunstone narrating the whole affair. This did break the mood, I wanted to believe it was still the midsixties, at first I was too far away to see the lines in their faces, but I give credit to them for having no airs.
And then they played “Time Of The Season” (...) But when they followed it up soon thereafter with “Tell Her No” and “She’s Not There,” where were they going to go next?
“Hold Your Head Up.”
(...)
Because as Bowie sang, you can be a hero for a day, but the Zombies’ music…it’s FOREVER!"
