Listened, yesterday afternoon, to another enjoyable edition of Mastertapes (the A Side) with The Zombies talking about Odessey And Oracle.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01p71gb

Mastertapes ( the B-Side ) will be broadcast next Monday evening at 11 where they will be taking questions from the audience.

Ray Davies <star> (amongst others) is still available to listen to in the same series ...

<ok> By co-incidence, I listened to Monday evening's B side whilst making a very late impromptu chinese supper - it was too cold to stay out after a visit to the theatre so I was happy to listen to it whilst chopping stir-fry base ingredients....seemed to go just right with the music - fresh ginger, garlic and chilli! <star>

John Wilson talked to Corinne Bailey Rae....mentioned her early gigs at Shepherds Bush Empire which is where I first saw her...I took two Spanish friends along and they loved her and her silky voice....

I enjoyed the B-side of the Ray Davies one; the only artist in the series that I'm interested in.

I heard the start of The Zombies one.

"When the critics make their all-time lists, it's always up there with Sgt Pepper and Pet Sounds"

Really?

(They made some great singles though.)

I've heard the Zombies programme before, I think (or very similar). The band had broken up before the album took off in the US - interviews with Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone? TBH I am not a fan of CB's voice, that weird falsetto thing.

Yes .... two fantastic singles ..... not familiar with the album.

It's the Time of the Season favourite for me. It's a pity they and others let differences of opinions 'split up the band'.

I suppose it's not very rock'n'roll to say ..... "Well .... let's agree to differ .... " <mohawkguitarist>
