Sickly sweet album. Cou;dn't take it in large doses. I can't deny 'Care Of Cell 44' though. Fire and wonder there!

Odessey and Oracle is the ultimate psychedelic pop record of the 60s. Front to back, every song is a colorful gem. One of those few records that ignites happiness within the soul of anyone who listens.

I am an idiot. I came across the Zombies on BEA a few months ago but their style threw me off because it wasn't what i expected. I decided to give it another listen and now i really like it. :)

This album is beautiful and unique in it's own way... At times it can be really Beatles-esque, but overall it has it's own style and feeling to it.

The singing alone puts this album up into the best ever category. Blunstone's voice is a natural wonder and the harmonies are spine tingling. I can listen to this album once a week and not get sick of it. Very few albums are of that quality for me. Played "This will be our year" at our wedding when we entered the reception. It brought the house down because the lyrics seemed to be written about us.
