RARE TOP COPY
The mighty Zior released two highly-collectible Lp s the first, a heavy psych rock affair with prog influences with moves compared to Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Steppenwolf and the Doors

ZIOR:
Keith Bonser - Vocals, organ, bass and flute
John Truba - guitar,
Peter Brewer - drums
Barry Skeels - bass.
THE FIRST 1971 ZIOR LP delivers a crunchy hard effort fueled by catchy rock originals, killer heavy riffs, gushing organ , skilled drumming and gritty rock vocals.
SIDE 1:
The opening track, I Really Do , is an all-out mover with the right sound , including sensational drum work. A great opening track.
Za Za Za Zilda a dark and murky tune with strong guitar and great drumming all over it.
Love s Desire creates a sing-along chorus highlighted by Bonser s vocals which is classic rock at its core - the guitar solo is so sloppy and fuzzy in a good way
Swelling organ notes introduce New Land quickly moving into a psychedelic-bluesy-rock style with Bonser s soaring vocals amid fuzzy guitars, and churning organ ala 1971 Deep Purple
Now I m Sad is dominated by more organ work and guitar riffing going on in lengthy
Give Me Love reminds of great early 70 s Deep Purple, led by driving guitar, gushing organ as a 1971 era rocker
feeling like the perfect track to close side 1
Flipping over to SIDE 2:
Quabala opens in groovy, trippy, out-there style-- a cool ride that keeps ones attention throughout in the soaring effort
Next, a psychedelic full force driver titled Oh Mariya quickly going all heavy and ripping with fuzz-tone guitar raging along the riffs. The backing vocals give an angelic, euphoric feel adding to the true beast of this track.
Your Life Will Burn is a dark-menacing track racing at 100 mph - dominated by gushing organ, wild guitar and the occult Sabbathy atmospherics one may expect
I Was Fooling injects a Beatles catchy quality, showcasing the varied psychedelic trippy quaities Zior were capable of.
Then the bluesy hard rocking Before My Eyes Go Blind mixing of heavy guitar riffs, great drums, bass and sound-effects added for good measure.
The final track, Rolling Thunder , is another rocking classic 1971 track a cooking cruncher as a nice closing track to a rare collectible 1971 UK Ne pentha LP
