Best thing I've read in ages, and it was posted years ago! Great photos too. Funny how they had almost nothing in common musically with the real zombies.

This group included Seab from the Gentlemen and two future members of ZZ Top. And they weren't the only Texas group posing as the Zombies.

'the Original Zombies'!

Cool story indeed! Also goes to show how misleading info on a promotional photo can be if it had been presented without a story and autographs (though I guess someone might have recognized the ZZ Top guys eventually)

There's an interesting fake Zombies anecdote in my piece on the Velvet Illusions scheduled for the next issue of Ugly Things.

There is an actual video of a fake zombie group appearing on some show and doing "Time Of The Season." My VHS is long gone, but I'm sure footage is floating around somewhere on the net.

I believe it's from Memphis Talent Party.
