The first time I remember hearing this song is when Santana released their cover of it. I didn’t hear the original until at least a couple years later.

I saw The Who live at The Fabulous Forum in 1980 and Argent was playing keyboards. Baba O’Riley was spectacular live with his assist.

I don’t know exactly when the Zombies officially broke up but my buddy didn’t get the memo. He’d put on a few teen dances in our small Nebraska city and in ‘69 or ‘70 got a call from a promoter offering “The Zombies” for a cheap price. Except the contract came with a typo on it, no big deal he thought, it actually read “The Zombie”. Well, it was a big deal, because only one guy showed up - a guitarist who claimed to have played with the group and now called himself “The Zombie”. Fortunately Nebraska kids were entertainment-deprived and it all worked out. A good lesson in “the devil’s in the details” however!

I have a jukebox that plays 45’s. I only load songs from the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s on it. I have both “She’s Not There” and “Time of The Season” on it. It’s perfect for the songs by artists who are one (or two) hit wonders like The Zombies.

I have a few Argent Lps and even a solo Colin Blunstone Lp around here somewhere.

I always liked “God gave Rock and Roll”

I remember when "Time of the Season" started playing on WLS "in Chicago" regularly. It's still one of my all time favorites.

In the UP, we could only pick up WLS at night when they increased their power. I don't remember the disc jockeys from the 60’s, but I do remember Larry Lujack(”talent on loan from God”) and Little Tommy.

I think Chris White and the Zombies did I Love You which was later a hit by a group called People.
