ZIOR Zior (Ultra Rare 1971 UK Nepentha label 12-track stereo vinyl LP - An amazing progressive hard rock album by the English band who sprang to existence right on the cusp of the progressive-folk & psych-blues expanding movements as they ushered in proto-metal & beyond. The marvellous Keef designed 3D matt gatefold picture sleeve [with 'Love Cannot Exist In Hell...' quotation] reveals a couple of cosmetic marks inside the gatefold and otherwise the condition is excellent with some edge & corner wear. The vinyl is strictly graded Very Good, with some noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. We have professionally cleaned and play tested both sides and can confirm that apart from the odd click or hiss, this displays no major deterioration in sound quality and plays through without any issues. A really nice example and only the second copy we have ever had of this early rock rarity which is recommended for fans of early Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer & Grand Funk Railroad to name just a few!)
