THE ZOMBIES - "THIS OLD HEART OF MINE" (1966)

The Zombies take my favourite Motown record and perform it in the style of The Action to a room of dandified hipshaking Parisians in 1966. Beat that.

  1. That is a bit of a corker, isn't it? And I'm loving the energetic French audience.

  2. I see I'm not the only one who picked up on the "Action" feel to this, it's that Rickenbacker...there's been loads of French 60's Melody postings on YouTube as of late, some great stuff...sceen the live version of "Getaway" compered by Emperor Rosko yet?

  3. The Rickenbacker, the harmonies, the arrangement... They do add that cool little organ break in it the Action wouldn't have had but it's very close.
