Zior, hailing from England's Southend, were formed in the late '60s by a quartet of like-minded local R&B scene veterans.
They were a popular local live act in their day, not surprising considering their wild stage shows and satanically themed set props.
Legend has it that unlike (what they considered) the coy Black Sabbath, Zior were serious practitioners of the black arts...for all the good it did their career.
The band never did break through, and this, their 1971 self-titled debut, remains their sole recording.
Released on short lived UK Nepentha label established by record producer Larry Page in 1971.
Distributed through Philips/Polydor only five albums and a handful singles were ever issued
Side 1:
I Really Do (2:58)
Za Za Za Za Zilda (2:40)
Love's Desire (4:00)
New Land (4:10)

Give Me Love (2:42)
Side 2:
Quabala (3:20)
Oh Mariya (3:20)
Your Life Will Burn (3:15)
I Was Fooling (3:05)
Before My Eyes Go Blind (3:25)
Rolling Thunder (3:05)
LABELS: EXCELLENT+
Both labels are clean with only light spindle traces
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT
The surfaces show some light brush marks and pressing blemishes but none of these have any effect on the sound and most are more than likely present from new
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays beautifully throughout with practically nothing to fault.
No scratches, clicks, ticks or pops and very clean.
Just a touch of low-level suffice between some of the tracks, nothing really
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Crisp and sharp gatefold with little to fault and with all spine text clear and bold
