[Obviously, the videos in this Track by Track series were all filmed the same day, but for easier indexing, I'm putting them under the dates they were posted.]
Rod: This is, uh, Rod Argent here from the Zombies.
Colin: It's Colin Blunstone from the Zombies, and this is Track by Track at Gibson, and we're on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles.
"You Make Me Feel Good"
Rod: 'You Make Me Feel Good' was the, um, the first track ever written by, um, Chris White that we recorded. I was a huge fan of Chris. Um, I think, generally speaking, he came into his own a little bit later and became a- an absolutely wonderful writer, but he always had that spark of originality, um, but sometimes, you have to fashion things a little bit, but we all worked together on everything anyway, and we would take an initial idea and say, 'Well, why don't we make that minor chord a major chord?' You know? Things like that. And this was one that we, we did that on. It turned out so well that it was a toss up whether 'She's Not There' or 'You Make Me Feel Good' was gonna be the first single. In the end, thank you very much 'cause I wrote it, 'She's Not There' was, but it could easily have been 'You Make Me Feel Good,' and 'You Make Me Feel Good' - in our opinion - should have been the follow-up, but in those days, they just threw everything out, and, um, it wasn't.
Colin: It was-
Rod: It was on the B-side.
Colin: It was the B-side, yeah.
Rod: Yeah. But I still- we occasionally do it still on, on stage, and I still enjoy it. 'You Make Me Feel Good', Chris's first song.
