Title: NICE TRY, BUT.....
Product review: I love the Zombies. loved them since I heard Summertime on one of their first albums in 1966. They had a pop jazz groove that was unique. Argent and Blunstone made magic. They had sidemen that complemented their song writing.Their live concert is marred, no, ruined, by the rechanneling of Led Zep's Bonzo on drums that is all pounding and no nuance. The drummer, son of the guitarist, leaves no space silent. You hear every cymbal, tom tom, bell, etc that he has all the time. The music deserves a better hand than this 4/4 head banger can manage. He finally gets it for summertime, last song, when he is mercifully behind the song.I'd like to hear more of the guitarist and the bassist, but the drums fill the tracks. Other than that, Colin and Rod do as best they can to make themselves heard over the din.Skip this one. Except for the rave up on She's Not There, all these songs are better done elsewhere.
