Description
THE SYN
Rare original 1967 Deram 7" single
The roots of The Syn are in an earlier north London R&B band called 'High Court' including Steve Nardelli on guitar and his school friend George Arzimanow on vocals. The band evolved over time and, in 1965, with Nardelli now handling lead vocals and John Painter on guitar, they changed their name to The Syn.
The Syn merged with another local band, The Selfs, so Nardelli and Painter were joined by Chris Squire (bass), Andrew Jackman (keys) and Martyn Adelman (drums).
John Painter was replaced by Peter Banks and Martyn Adelman was replaced by Gunnar Hákonarson from Iceland. The band moved away from R&B covers and started writing their own material, led by Jackman and Nardelli. Reflecting the musical changes going on around them, they became more influenced by psychedelia. They released two singles titled Created by Clive and 14 Hour Technicolor Dream in 1967.
The band split up in 1967. Both Squire and Banks then joined Mabel Greer's Toyshop and then Yes.

VINYL
The vinyl is in excellent condition, still retaining a nice original sheen. On the A side, I can find just one very very feint light mark which does not affect play at all.
