I don't want to say that they're wrong about this (after all, it is their album, so they should know when it was released), but the book where I've been getting the dates for their releases (Greg Russo's Time of the Season: Collector's Guide) says that the LP came out in the U.S. on 8 February 1965.
And, actually, the picture they have there is the re-issued album from 1973. You can tell by the catalogue number (PAS 71001). The original album was PA 61001 (and in rechanneled stereo as PAS 61001).Reblogging because it's 8 February, so - according to Russo - the Zombies' US debut album was released 50 years ago to-day.
