One Year And More: Live from Union Chapel
Limited Edition • 2CD + DVD • Available Now via Gonzo Distribution

(London, UK – November 21, 2025) -  One year ago, on November 25, 2024, legendary vocalist Colin Blunstone returned to London’s Union Chapel for a once-in-a-lifetime concert. Performing his landmark 1971 debut solo album One Year in its entirety…including “Say You Don’t Mind,” “Misty Roses,” and “Caroline Goodbye” alongside career favorites, Blunstone was joined by a full ensemble, featuring bandmates from the current Zombies lineup and former Strawbs, plus the Q Strings quartet for a spellbinding evening that instantly became part of his legacy.

Blunstone relates “On the 25th of November 2024 I performed my first solo album “One Year” live in its entirety for the first time at London’s Union Chapel.

Looking back this was not an undertaking to be taken on lightly knowing that “One Year” encompasses so many different genres of music. With very little rehearsal time my solo band (Dave Bainbridge, Søren Koch, Chas Cronk and Steve Rodford) and the incredible Q Strings took on the challenge without a moment's hesitation.”

Now, to honor that unforgettable night, Gonzo Distribution proudly presents Colin Blunstone: One Year And More – Live from Union Chapel, a strictly limited collector’s edition box set, available now. Find the box set and more here.

This exquisite release is designed for true connoisseurs:

  • 2CD + full concert DVD, capturing the complete Union Chapel performance in pristine audio and video

  • Luxurious gold foil–embossed box with gold satin lining

  • Exclusive 24-page booklet with never-before-seen photographs of the concert that brought One Year full circle

  • Each set includes an autographed and numbered certificate, underscoring its scarcity and value

Blunstone, inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2019 as the voice of The Zombies, has long been celebrated for his singularly silky and emotive vocals. His career, spanning more than six decades, bridges timeless Zombies classics (“She’s Not There,” “Tell Her No,” “Time of the Season”) with his solo masterpieces (One YearEnnismoreJourney).

Released in 1971, One Year remains a cult classic of British pop…listed in The Guardian’s “1,000 Albums to Hear Before You Die”...and has influenced artists from Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth) to Neil Tennant (Pet Shop Boys), and even Jeff Buckley, whose A&R Rep cited Blunstone’s strings as an inspiration for Grace.

With One Year And More – Live from Union Chapel, fans can finally experience Colin’s solo masterpiece reimagined, presented in a collector’s edition as timeless and elegant as the music itself. This is not just a release…it is an heirloom for anyone who values artistry, rarity, and legacy. And not to mention, it captures the ambience of the evening, perfectly.
