About two weeks ago, I happened to look at the track-listing for the Zombies'
R.I.P. album (which - as I understand - was supposed to be released after "Time of the Season" became a hit, but wasn't [the
Zombie Heaven liner notes claim that "the advent of Argent probably stopped its release"]). Apparently, it actually was released a few years ago, and it follows the original slated track listing, which is:
- "She Loves the Way They Love Her"
- "Imagine the Swan"
- "Smokey Day"
- "Girl Help Me"
- "I Could Spend the Day"
- "Conversation off Floral Street"
- "If It Don't Work Out"
- "I'll Call You Mine"
- "I'll Keep Trying"
- "I Know She Will"
- "Don't Cry for Me"
- "Walking in the Sun"
When I lookt at this, I realized that the two songs included here that Colin Blunstone recorded for
One Year have the same track numbers in that sequencing. That is: on
One Year, "She Loves the Way They Love Her" is track #1, and "Smokey Day" is track #3. I'm suspicious that this indicates that the sequencing of both albums was done by the same person or people.
