While everyone was listening to Sgt.Pepper, Satanic Majesties, and the other big sellers of '67, another band were in Abbey Road recording their own masterpiece. They even used the same 4-track tape machine as The Beatles. Unfortunately, when it was finally released in April '68, it pretty well vanished without a trace, as The Zombies had split up several months earlier. It was only many years later, when it started to get mentioned in lists of classic albums of the era, that it started to sell. Cue several Zombies reunions, and tours performing the whole of "Odyssey & Oracle". This was the only hit single from the album, reaching the USA top 10 in 1969, but never charting in the UK.
