La Nuit des Morts-Vivants

More proof that YouTube is the greatest boon to human knowledge since the library at Alexandria.



Seriously, until I chanced across this French TV clip yesterday I don't think I've ever seen actual non lip-synched live footage of The Zombies before, let alone a shit hot performance of a song they never officially recorded.

Jeebus, these guys were an amazing band...

Man, that looks like they're performing in someone's garage. Cool!

Colin is wearing a Schlitz Beer T-Shirt! They are rockin'. Hugh is a great drummer.

ROTP(lumber)

Because it'd be criminal if you somehow missed them doing "This Old Heart Of Mine" from the same show:

Saw that one as well. If you're around on Thursday, it's going to provide a clue to Friday's traditional Weekend Listomania.

Well you probably hit on why they couldn't lip synched it... they never recorded it!

Something of a non sequitur that, but certainly true.
