Description

Zior were a British progressive / psychedelic rock band with a reputation for their wild live shows, and legend has it that unlike Black Sabbath, Zior were serious practitioners of the black arts.

Released on the Nepentha label in 1971, this first edition very rare vinyl LP is their self-titled debut.

(Nepentha was a UK label established by UK record producer Larry Page in 1971 and distributed in the UK through Philips. Only five albums and a few singles were released on this label).

Band members were Keith Bonsor (vocals, keyboards), Peter Brewer (drums), Barry Skeels (bass, vocals), Mark West [aka Woolly] (guitar, 1970), John Truba (guitar, vocals, 1970-72)

Zior had their roots in Southend's early sixties R&B scene. Kevin Bonsor had previously been in a local R&B outfit, The Essex Five, and then classical/rock fusion outfit, Cardboard Orchestra. Pete Brewer had been in another Southend R&B band, The Night Riders. He and Bonsor were Zior's founding members recruiting Truba and Skeels.
