Unlimited Power Possibly the best of the many single-disc Zombies compilations that exist, and certainly the most concise, SINGLES A'S AND B'S contains both sides of all 11 Zombies singles released between 1964 and 1968. The Zombies only released two albums in their three-and-a-half year existence, 1964's BEGIN HERE and 1968's classic ODESSEY AND ORACLE. Given that Rod Argent and Chris White did not blossom as songwriters until late in the Zombies' career, SINGLES A'S AND B'S combines original Argent/White compositions like "She's Not There," "Tell Her No," "I Love You" and the underrated "She Does Everything For Me" with excellent covers of R&B classics like Little Anthony and the Imperials' "Going Out of My Head." This compilation, plus reissues of the band's two proper albums, will give all but the most fanatical Zombies fans everything they need. Recorded between 1964 & 1969.

Unlimited Power The group was still doing some folk-type vocal numbers on this, their second album, but it was clearly moving in the direction of progressive rock. The 18-minute title track by Richard Harvey took up one whole side of the original LP, and incorporated medieval, baroque, and classical-era influences in its structure. That track is probably what attracted Yes (and, more specifically, Steve Howe) to the group in time for them to be booked as an opening act on the progressive rock supergroup's 1975 tour. The tempo changes come just often enough to keep the material from being remotely stilted or boring, and the radical shifts in dynamics make this a rather sonically impressive piece -- and the melodies are gorgeous. The resulting album is a strange brand of "progressive folk," never veering too far from traditional English and European source material, but played within structures as appropriate to the concert hall as they were to the club or the pub. New member Philip Nestor (bass, vocals) added considerably to the weightiness of the band's sound. For an unofficial member, organist Ernest Hart (who would join on the next album) plays a surprisingly important and visible role here, vastly expanding the range of their sound so that Gryphon seems like it can fill a full-sized concert hall. The shorter vocal piece "The Ploughboy's Dream" is also handled on a far more sophisticated level than the work on the first album. Amazingly, the highlight may be the closer, a hybrid folk/rock/classical instrumental called "Ethelion," which showcases each member's major instruments ...
