All original albums by The Zombies (and there's only a few of them to begin with) are very coveted, quite valuable and highly collectable, especially ORIGINAL MONO pressings, such as the copy of this classic Zombies album we are offering here. This is the album which pretty much defined the British (pre-Blues) invasion and Beat movement; Mono copies of this incredibly rare 1965 album are about 20 times harder to find than the "fake" stereo versions, and sound about as many times better!!! The mono sound brings up all the grit as well as finesse in Colin Blunstone and Rod Argent's playing, in addition to the gorgeous melodies and harmonies Zombies were known for. Don’t be a Zombie – it’s the time of a season to grab this awesome classic 'British Invasion' album now.
Track listing: She's not there - Summertime - It's alright with me - You've really got a hold on me - Sometimes - Woman - Tell her no - I don't want to know - Work'n'Play - Can't nobody love me - What more can I do? - I've got my old mojo working.

· CONDITION:
· RECORD
(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)
(a) WE GRADE THE VINYL AS NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs - are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible, and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.
(b) The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!
(c) The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.
(d) Mono pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more preferable to its FAKE ("electronically rechannelled") stereo counterpart. We estimate that FAKE stereo copies of this album outnumber monos by a ratio of at least 5:1.
(e) True Stereo copies of this album are NOT known to exist.
(f) Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
· COVER
COVER IS NEAR MINT, STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP
The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:
- Note: the previous owner taped the edges of the shrink wrap along the bottom seam by using three small pieces of clear scotch tape. We stress that the tape is not even touching the visible, external part of the cover. This can be easily removed.
- Cover shows some light yellowing on both sides, apparently from aging.
- Cover has JUST A HINT of ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and 10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 1 (front side) and 2 (back side)
NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:
- No split seams
- No cut-out (drill) holes.
- No cut-out corners
- No saw-marks or indents
