'Q' Magazine (1997):
'Anyone with an interest in '60's artistic pop will adore the underrated 'Odessey and Oracle', after which they'll probably want everything else in this mighty labour of love.'

'Mojo' Magazine (1997):
'The Zombies' deserve serious re-appraisal and this definitive release begs to give them instant promotion to the premier league of the '60's.' 'Odessey and Oracle - their masterpiece...without doubt one of the best albums of it's era'.

'The Guardian' (1997);
'The Zombies were psychedelic Gods. 'Zombie Heaven' should initiate their rightful elevation to the psychedelic canon, and Odessey and Oracle is worth the admission price alone.'

'Vox' Magazine (1997);
'Some of the last undiscovered magic of the '60's.'

'The Times' (1995);
'The beat boom's most refined and elegant group, they specialised in unashamedly romantic pop - where the heartfelt and personal, wistful and nostalgic, or inspired by literature...released at the height of hippy hedonism and narcissism, 'Odessey and Oracle' was a last gasp from the age of innocence'.

'Record Collector'(1997);
'The Zombies were one of the most inventive and experimental bands of the '60's.' 'Odessey and Oracle was their shining moment - a cornucopia of pop-art songs and elegant arrangements worthy of McCartney at his Revolver-era best.'

'New York Times'(1998);
'Over the course of the ensuing decades, (The Zombies) final album...'Odessey and Oracle' - a beautifully arranged, harmony drenched pristine pop paean to memory, the changing seasons, the passage of time and lost love - slowly began to be recognised as one of the greatest albums of the 1960's.'

'Pulse!' (1997);
'Zombie Heaven; the ultimate Zombies anthology 1964-1968 - The Zombies (big beat) UK 4 CD's *****. To casual fans of '60's rock, they were a three hit wonder. Others believe The Zombies were among the most interesting and musically accomplished of all the British Invaders. All the studio recordings are here, as well as live BBC sessions, outtakes from the exquisite 'Odessey and Oracle' album and more.'

'Tom Petty' (1997);
'If a group like 'The Zombies' appeared now, they would own the world.'
