ROD ARGENT UPDATE
Mastodon Post
The main updates on Rod Argent of The Zombies and the band, Argent, so far, are mostly coming from social media. They agree that Argent has decided to retire from touring. It is my hope more extensive reporting will follow. This seems to be all we have at the moment.
The Zombies has been one of my favorite rock bands since "She's Not There." I compile various artists music collections; and the one I am working on right now ends with The Zombies' "You've Really Got a Hold On Me," which is actually a medley with Sam Cooke's "Bring It On Home to Me."
Rod Argent's "Time of the Season," by The Zombies, has long been a favorite on paranormal radio. Can't talk much about The Zombies without naming the masterpiece, "Summertime."

As the lead singer for the Zombies, Colin Blunstone's breathy, controlled vocals could range from tender and restrained to energetically soulful. Blunstone's voice was one of the defining elements of the Zombies' sound, and when the band dissolved in the late '60, he retired from music briefly before returning as a solo artist with the graceful chamber pop of his 1971 debut One Year. Blunstone would remain active as a solo artist throughout the '70s and '80s...
