The Zombies - “Care of Cell 44”

Everything about the Zombies is emblematic of 60s pop music: the hair, the suits, the melodies, the harmonies, and especially the Mellotron. For this reason, the Zombies draw immediate and warranted comparisons to early Beatles and the Beach Boys. While everyone has heard the Zombies’ hit “Time of the Season”, the band wasn’t a huge commercial success overall. And not being as commercially successful as some of their contemporaries, I tend to think The Zombies are one of the great, overlooked 60s British bands. This song, “Care of Cell 44”, is the lead-off track to The Zombies’ 1968 masterpiece Odyssey and Oracle, and is exactly what sunrises would sound like if sunrises made music.
