The Zombies today - Time of the Season

I know I posted a video (not a live band video) last Friday of the original recording of "Time of the Season" by The Zombies, but I just found out that the group NEVER performed this song live as they had broken up before the album was released in 1968 that this song appeared on.

So I dug this off YouTube from a performance last year. The lead singer, Colin Blunstone and the keyboardist/writer, Rod Argent, are originals. Chris White, another original, plays with them on and off but I don't know that he's in this video.

AND - I get to see them in Agoura Hills, CA on July 19 as they're performing at The Canyon Club (and at Summerfest in Milwaukee July 5 which I told my family and friends about).

As I mentioned in one of my "Vacation" posts, this is a favorite song of some of the guys I fish and hunt with - we've been playing and singing this song in bars for over 20 years.

Sorry, but I can't get it outta my head! And they sound remarkably good after all these years, don't they?
