1. ザ・ゾンビーズの概要ザ・ゾンビーズは、1961年にイングランドのセント・オールバンズで結成されたイギリスのバンドです。1960年代のブリティッシュ・インヴェイジョン期に活躍し、「She's Not There」「Tell Her No」「Time of the Season」などのヒット曲で知られています。彼らは、同時代の他のバンドとは一線を画した、独特で洗練された音楽性を持っていました。2. ロッド・アージェントの音楽的特徴ロッド・アージェントは、ザ・ゾンビーズのサウンドにおいて「要（cornerstone）」と評される人物であり、キーボード、ボーカル、作曲を担当しました。コリン・ブランストーンは、彼がいなければ自身の音楽キャリアはなかっただろうと語り、アージェントを「イギリスが生んだ最高のキーボード奏者の一人であり、ワールドクラスだ」と高く評価しています。彼の主な特徴は以下の通りです。革新的なキーボードプレイ: ロックにおいてキーボードをリード楽器として押し上げた先駆者の一人と考えられています。繊細かつ印象的なキーボード演奏はバンドの核であり、「She's Not There」における彼のハモンドオルガンは楽曲のフックとなり、ギター不在のヒット曲という点でも特筆されます。メロトロン、オルガン、ピアノを駆使し、ギターだけでは表現できない重層的な音世界を構築しました。クラシック・ジャズからの影響: 彼の音楽にはクラシック音楽からの影響が色濃く反映されています。緻密なアレンジや大胆かつ洗練されたコード進行、転調も特徴であり、特に「She's Not There」ではジャズの即興性がロックのエネルギーと巧みに融合しています。優れた作曲家: バンドの多くの楽曲を作曲しており、「She's Not There」「Time of the Season」といった代表曲を手掛けています。3. コリン・ブランストーンの音楽的特徴コリン・ブランストーンは、ザ・ゾンビーズのリードボーカルであり、その唯一無二の声質がバンドサウンドに深みを与えました。独特で繊細なボーカル: 彼の声は「儚く繊細でありながら芯のある声質」と評され、1960年代の英国ロックシーンにおいても極めて独自でした。その表現力は豊かで、ソフトさとエモーションの絶妙なバランスを持ち、ポップスとソウルの橋渡し的な存在となりました。感情的な歌唱: 彼の独特なボーカルスタイルは楽曲に深みを与え、「She's Not There」や「Tell Her No」ではミステリアスな雰囲気を際立たせ、「A Rose for Emily」などでは哀愁と夢想を同時に表現しています。4. 音楽スタイルと『Odessey and Oracle』ザ・ゾンビーズの音楽は、ロッド・アージェントのクラシック音楽からの影響による洗練されたバロック的な要素 と、サイケデリック要素が融合した「バロック・ポップ」や「サイケデリック・ポップ」として特徴づけられます。メンバー全員が歌唱力に優れ、複雑で美しい多声ハーモニーも彼らのサウンドの重要な要素です。特にセカンドアルバム**『Odessey and Oracle』**（1968年）は、リリース当時は商業的に成功しませんでしたが、後に「サイケデリック・ポップ／バロック・ポップの金字塔」として高く再評価され、「サイケデリック・ポップの傑作」とされています。このアルバムは、わずか1,000ポンド未満の予算で制作され、ロッド・アージェントとクリス・ホワイトがセルフ・プロデュースした点も画期的です。緻密なアレンジ、美しいハーモニー、詩的な歌詞、そしてクラシック音楽的な構成美は、「静謐な美しさ」や「構築美」として評価されています。5. 現代のアーティストへの影響ザ・ゾンビーズが生み出した音楽、特に『Odessey and Oracle』は、時代を超えて多くのアーティストに影響を与えています。ジャンルへの影響: ロッド・アージェントの革新的なキーボードプレイと彼らの緻密なアレンジは、後のプログレッシブロック、バロックポップ、ドリームポップへの道を開いたと考えられています。彼らの「静謐な美しさ」や「構築美」、そして「文学的歌詞」は、90年代以降のインディーロックやチルウェイヴに大きな影響を与えました。特定のアーティストへの影響: 彼らの「気品とメロディ重視の作風」は、エリオット・スミス、ビーチ・ハウス、ベル・アンド・セバスチャンといった現代のインディー・ポップ／オルタナティブロックアーティストに通じるとされています。XTCやヴァンパイア・ウィークエンドなども彼らのハーモニーやアレンジセンスの影響を受けています。同業者からの尊敬: トッド・ラングレン、エルヴィス・コステロ、デイヴ・グロール、ノエル・ギャラガーなど、多くの著名なアーティストがザ・ゾンビーズの音楽を高く評価し、影響を受けたことを表明しています。遅れてきた再評価: 活動当時は短命に終わったものの、特に『Odessey and Oracle』が音楽ファンや批評家によって再発見・再評価されたことで、彼らの音楽的革新性や影響力が認識されるようになりました。これが、2019年のロックの殿堂入りにも繋がる重要な要因の一つとされています。結論ロッド・アージェントとコリン・ブランストーンは、ザ・ゾンビーズにおいて、革新的なキーボード演奏と作曲能力、そして唯一無二のボーカルによって、他のブリティッシュ・インヴェイジョン期のバンドとは異なる独自の音楽世界を構築しました。特にアルバム『Odessey and Oracle』に結実した彼らの音楽は、予算や時代を超えた芸術的な完成度を持ち、後世のインディーロック、バロックポップ、サイケデリック・ポップなどのアーティストに深い影響を与え続けています。活動当時の商業的成功は限定的でしたが、時を経てその真価が再評価され、「時代を超えるアート作品」 として、現代の音楽シーンにおいてもその影響力を確固たるものとしています。

In their first ever feature documentary nearly sixty years after they met as teenagers before the British Invasion music scene, THE ZOMBIES tell their story of navigating the tumultuous music industry over the decades and making one of the most influential albums of all time, Odessey and Oracle. "She's Not There" made them the first British band after The Beatles to reach #1 in the US. After years of touring and many missteps in the 60s, sadly the band missed out on their biggest moment yet, when "Time of the Season" hit #1 and became a global success, inspiring new generations each year. The band looks back on their journey, where true friendship led them to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Here's the trailer:Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JctjMqtsFsU Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Six decades after they stormed the British and American charts in 1964, The Zombies are possibly more popular than ever. Their biggest hits, ‘She's Not There', ‘Tell Her No' and ‘Time of the Season' have been played more than 14 million times on U.S. radio alone. Praised by critics, discovered by a new generation of fans, and inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, The Zombies returned in the 2000s to establish themselves as a top-class touring act still driven to create new music. Based largely on author Robin Platts' interviews with the five original band members, Times and Seasons – The Rise and Fall and Rise of The Zombies (Hozac Books) tells the whole story from the mid-‘60s Decca Records hits and misses through the break-up, to the creation of their orch pop masterwork, Odessey and Oracle, to the solo years, and their unexpected revival in the 21st century.

Lucie Morton is the World's most preeminent Ampelographer, if not the only one still living that practices this art in the wine industry. I know, you are asking yourself what is Ampelography? Well, Lucie will explain that in some detail in this episode. In fact, this interview was filled with so many insights that I have chosen to break it up into 2 parts. In Part 1 we touch on many areas of winegrowing with a focus on American Heritage grapes and their demise and rediscovering. One of which, the Cunningham Grape, another Virginia native grape Lucie is in the process of recovering, it is going through the quarantine requirements, and her nephew plans to plant it on their original family farm on the banks of the Potomac River in King George County, Virginia.Lucie is also in the process of producing a film called the Odessey of Forbidden Wines, Exile and return of American grapes. We will discuss that in detail in Part 2. I could go on about Lucie's many accomplishments, but I will let the Episode speak to it instead. Enjoy the listening. You will be as fascinated as I am every time I engage Lucie in a discussion about winegrowing.    Thanks for being a listener to the Fine Wine Confidential Podcast.

In this episode I explore the early nationalism of the Republican Party from the New Deal to the Cold War, as described in Michael Miles' Odessey of the American Right, with particular attention paid to US foreign policy at that time.

Colin Blunstone is best known as the lead vocalist of the iconic British rock band The Zombies. Formed in the early 1960s, The Zombies became pioneers of the British Invasion, with Blunstone's distinctively ethereal and breathy vocals shaping the band's unique sound. The group achieved international fame with hits like "She's Not There" and "Time of the Season," and their 1968 album Odessey and Oracle is now regarded as a masterpiece of psychedelic pop. However, after the initial commercial success, The Zombies disbanded in 1968, and Blunstone embarked on a solo career.To watch this podcast and many more interviews please go towww.popthehistorymakers.comBlunstone's solo work, beginning with his 1971 album One Year, showcases his velvety voice in a more introspective, orchestral-pop context. His early solo singles, including "Say You Don't Mind" and "I Don't Believe in Miracles," were well-received, blending soft rock with lush arrangements. Over the decades, Blunstone has maintained a steady presence in the music world, collaborating with artists like Alan Parsons and contributing to the reformation of The Zombies in the 2000s, where he continues to perform and record with the band.photo (c) Alex Lake Hosted on Acast.

When you hear Dr. Fruchtenbaum tell of his journey from Poland to Siberia, to Poland, to Germany, to the United States, you will see that it was truly an epic geographical shift that led him to a greater spiritual shift from Judaism to Christianity. This did not please his Hasidic parents so they kicked him out of the house. But God put Arnold on a path to a Bible education and eventually the founding of Ariel Ministries which shares the gospel and issues of Messianic importance with Jewish people.

Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's the Gobbledygeek season 15 premiere! Breaking from vaguely defined tradition, Paul and Arlo are kicking off the season with a Four-Color Flashback, and their pal Eric Sipple is on hand to help turn the pages. Arlo has chosen to subject Paul and Eric to the classic Jeph Loeb/Tim Sale collab Superman for All Seasons, which may prove a tough sell to a couple of Super-skeptics. The gang discusses the book's Rockwell-influenced aesthetic, the simplicity (or flatness, depending on taste) of the cast, how Sale's big dopey Superman conveys Clark Kent's decency, and the surprising love triangle at the book's core. Plus, Arlo explains the very personal reasons he chose this book to start the season. You'll believe a man can cry.   NEXT: introducing our That Was Then series, wherein Paul and Arlo will be taking a look at various movies that are celebrating anniversaries in 2024.

In 1970 Avon Books published a landmark anthology “Science Fiction Hall of Fame” featuring 16 classic short stories that represent landmark tales of the genre. The stories were voted on by the members of the new (at the time in the late 60s) organization Science Fiction Writers of America. In this series, I will be joined by a panel of different guests to break down these stories and talk about the authors in the book. In this episode, I am joined by two returning guests. First up is the Hugo award-winning fan writer Cora Buhlert who knows her Science Fiction. Steve Davison is the current owner and publisher of one of the longest-running Science Fiction magazines Amazing Stories. Because this is the first episode we talk a lot about the make-up of the book and the process editor Robert Silverberg used to put the book together. The story we are covering is the 1934 classic “A Martian Odessey by Stanley G. Weinbaum. This story is considered a game-changer that changed Science Fiction forever.

The Zombies are rock royalty. Their album, Odessey and Oracle is a classic. And, unlike some of their contemporaries, they're still making quality new music. We talked with lead singed Colin Blunstone about the long saga of the band and what they've been up to now. (Hint: It involves getting their masters back.)For more information, you can follow The Zombies on Facebook, or you can check out their website.

This week on Cultural Manifesto, hear interviews with Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone of the legendary British rock band The Zombies - they'll be performing at the Brown County Music Center on October 19. Along with the Beatles and Rolling Stones, The Zombies were among the first wave of British Invasion bands to hit America during the 1960s. The Zombies were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019, and their music continues to attract new generations of fans. We'll discuss The Zombies' classic 1968 album "Odessey and Oracle" and their latest recording, "Different Game."

On today's episode, I talk to musician Rod Argent. Originally from St. Albans, Rod became the founder, keyboard player and one of the principal songwriters of the seminal 1960s British rock band The Zombies at the age of 16. While the band only stayed together a little more than half a decade, they became international stars, and their final album Odessey and Oracle is both one of the most acclaimed albums of the 1960s and of all time. After The Zombies broke up, Rod formed the brilliant prog band Argent, which played through the mid-70s, and since then, Rod has recorded ten albums under his own name. While The Zombies have reformed here and there, in 2004, they began to record music together again, and their latest album Different Game was just released in March this year, and like everything the band does, it is a real delight!

The Zombies - from St Albans, Hertfordshire – were one of the most interesting British bands of the 1960s. Their second record, Odessey and Oracle, remains as beguiling now as it did when it was released in 1968, as the group imploded. The spelling mistake in the title is symbolic of the group's legacy; spoiled brilliance. And yet all these years on – over half a century – the group is revered, and celebrated, in the way they perhaps always should have been. How did that happen then? Maybe there is hope for my long defunct teenage indie rock band after all. An active concern since the band regrouped some twenty odd years ago, on March 31st, The Zombies – featuring founding keyboardist Rod Argent and singer Colin Blunstone - release a new record, Different Game, on Cooking Vinyl. There's a UK tour to follow as well. I was lucky enough to get some time with Colin to talk about all of the above – and a whole lot more too...  Twitter - @jamesjammcmahon Substack - https://spoook.substack.com YouTube - www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Vf_1E1Sza2GUyFNn2zFMA Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/jamesmcmahonmusicpod/

We're back, baby! After a longer than expected hiatus, Gobbledygeek has returned for season 14. That's right, we're up to 14 seasons of Paul and Arlo babbling on about any manner of nonsense–which they continue to do in this freestyle season premiere. 2023 has come in like a lion and is likely to go out like one, so we find our boys licking their wounds, recounting the real-life horrors that delayed their return to the mic, and generally complaining about everything. Including pop culture! Lest you forget that's what they're here for, Paul and Arlo sauté some thoughts on the mushroom apocalypse of HBO's The Last of Us adaptation; rave about the movies they've caught up with, like The Fabelmans, RRR, and Aftersun; and decide to get high-brow by reading books that don't have any pictures. Plus, a pitch for the inevitable Gobbledygeek TV series.   NEXT: okay, but we really like books that do have pictures in them. This year's Four-Color Flashback series kicks off with Al Ewing and Simone Di Meo's We Only Find Them When They're Dead.     MUSIC “At Last” by Etta James, At Last!

Also in this episode: Jake announces the three different discographies that the rest of the podcast have to listen to for losing the quiz, we have an extensive rave about The Zombies' seminal Odessey and Oracle, a consideration of the musical career of Joji, and some of our most chaotic moments of the year, courtesy of August.

I'm delighted to be joined by musician, singer, songwriter, composer, and record producer - Rod Argent. In a career spanning more than 50 years, Rod is the keyboardist, founder and leader of the English rock band The Zombies. Their second album Odessey and Oracle is often mentioned by Paul Weller as his all time favourite. Rod has had an incredible career - continuing to perform live and release new music with The Zombies - he was also once part of Ringo Starr's All-Starr Band and has recorded with The Who, Chris Rea, Roger Daltrey, Paul Carrack and Andrew Lloyd Webber. He's also been producer for the likes of Gilbert O'Sullivan, Tanita Tikaram and Nanci Griffith. In 2018, Paul Weller released his 14th solo album True Meanings, with Rod Argent contributing to two stand out tracks (on an album full of stand out tracks!) - he plays Hammond organ on The Soul Searchers and Mellotron & Piano on White Horses. You can find more info on Rod's music in my show notes at paulwellerfanpodcast.com/episode-92-rod-argent Thanks for listening - make sure that you subscribe / follow and leave a review - and if you want to support the podcast financially, you can buy me a virtual coffee (£3) or our new official merchandise at paulwellerfanpodcast.com/store

Introducing Colin Blunstone, founder and singer/songwriter of the seminal British rock band of the 60s, The Zombies. Hits like "She's not there", "Tell her no", and "I love you" can be heard every day on numerous platforms, and their album "Odessey and Oracle" is considered by many to be one of the the best rock albums of all time.

Colin Blunstone has one of the sweetest, most distinct voices in rock, yet his band, the Zombies, has a bizarre history. It broke through with “She's Not There” and “Tell Her No,” then went three years before the release of its second album, the masterful Odessey and Oracle. By then the Zombies had split, and when “Time of the Season” became a hit almost a year later, fake versions of the band, including one featuring members of a soon-to-be-famous group, toured the U.S. Now Blunstone and songwriter/keyboardist Rod Argent are Zombies again, and in a lively, good-humored conversation, Blunstone recounts his spat with Argent over "Time of the Season" and a rollercoaster career that led to a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.
