The Story Behind: The Zombies - Odessey and Oracle, Ep 14

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Zombies called it quits 4 months before their 2nd album was even released. This week, the boys dig into identity theft in the pre-internet age, World War I (again), and just who holds the power in a band. Can a mix of pop, experimentation, and a second-hand mellotron re-animate this 60-year old album?
