The Zombies are an English rock band formed in St Albans in 1961. Led by keyboardist/vocalist Rod Argent and lead vocalist Colin Blunstone, the group had their first British and American hit in 1964 with “She’s Not There”. In the US, two further singles—”Tell Her No” in 1965 and “Time of the Season” in 1968—were also successful.

Just Out of Reach” is a song written by singer Colin Blunstone, first recorded by his band the Zombies in 1965. In 1965, it was clear that the Zombies were going to be featured in Otto Preminger’s 1966 movie Bunny Lake Is Missing. Therefore, the band had struck a deal with Preminger; he wanted three new songs by the group, recorded in the span of only ten days. During this time, the band’s primary songwriters, keyboardist Rod Argent and bassist Chris White suffered somewhat from writer’s block. Although White had already managed to come up with two songs, “Remember You” and “Nothing’s Changed”, the third song was still missing, much to the group’s disappointment. Therefore, Blunstone was tasked with the final song.
