*********************************
This is the highly sought after original 1st pressing of Zior's only album issued on the collectible Nepentha label ( Matrix No's : 6437005 1Y / 6437005 2Y)
Essentially prog flavoured psych / hard-rock sprinkled with funky blues ... certainly heavy-ish with Sabbath-like dark occult lyrics interspaced by acid / fuzzed-out guitar solos which never goes astray. Listening to it again I'd rate it more prog-power-rock than a trippy album with strong RnB leanings... mind you that's only personal opinion.
CONDITION : see 8 photos above
Vinyl : not overly played and more than acceptable. Some light marks here and there however a thick piece with plenty of shine that tracks along great with very little background noise to speak of ... in fact I barely noticed one or two faint pops throughout. Rated EX easily and will not disappoint.
Labels : Clean.
Sleeve : the original cover here is disappointing (as per the pics above) with edge-wear and age-wear all round and a couple of splits as well. No writing (apart from barely discernible name at lower left corner) and the spine is intact however there is damage to the lower-left corner of front and a couple of spots at the top of inner gatefold where, I assume, somewhere along the line it picked up some moisture .... SO, shabby at best I suppose but still as rare as rocking-horse poo and it still holds together reasonably well.
