Its to bad that there will never be a Sabbath tour with all of the best songs from ALL of the albums. They should get a singer that loves Sabbath and doesnt care about who the singer is and just rocks all of the great songs.
If you cant have the original line up, then the Tony Martin era was the only line up that was worth the group name. Yes it was different but sort of gave Sabbath back their original direction in music. He is the longest surviving singer after Ozzy and very underestimated as a singer/songwriter Tony is also a multi talented musician. I would love to see this line up perform again as they never got the recognition they deserved. Long live Tony Martin and god bless Tony Iommi for finding him.
Amazing album..the first two songs I heard from this lineup were "Shining" and "Ancient Warrior", and I used to loop both over and over and over 10, 20 times in a row!
@Traductus5972 Yes, I just meant the Dio's vocals style, grit, etc.. they're all amazing singers of course, but imho Tony was perfect to sing Ronnie's material, just that :)
@cabroncito777 I wouldn't say that. Ray Gillen wasn't ridiculous, but either way I say Ian Gillan was a really good replacement also, even though he has highly ridiculous his over the top singing was very fitting for the Black Sabbath sound
great fuckn voice of tonny martin, the second great singer after ozzy of course. Dio is a great singer too but I think Dio "shouts" and Tonny "sings" that's why I prefer tonny in black sabbath instead Dio.
This "sound" is all we Sabbath fans had in the 80's and we grew to either like it , hate it or ignore it. I loved Sabbath and loved this. I thought the albums with Tony Martin got better as they went. Until they got to Forbidden, which was not as good as Cross Purposes. And none of them compared to Ronnie James Dio's return on Dehumanizer. That is just my opinion.
@loouuni because this is not the essence of Black Sabbath I mean just hear it... and it wasn't suppossed to be Black Sabbath indeed all the records after of Dio era it wasnt planned to be Black Sabbath albums, but the fuckin people of the record label forced to Iommi to use the name of sabbath in these projects...
@mo6xx you are in part, right. But, i remember that Black Sabbath passed by several changes in classic formation: Hear the first one: Black Sabbath and hear Techinical Ecstasy is so strange, you see the two extremes of the same band formation with ozzy, therefore the Band passed by different phases in your life, and it is good because it is the Dynamic of the thing, like us, like economics, like the universe and so on. the Martin Phase is a chapter of Sabbath history, and should be remembered.
@mo6xx actually, it was only Born Again and Seventh Star that weren't meant to be Sabbath albums. The Tony Martin albums were always meant to be Sabbath albums. And if you want the essence of Black Sabbath, it's in this song, at 3:18 - a classic Iommi riff!
@loouuni Black Sabbath always had Great Voices, So when a band earn a heavy structure by Fans part, the old prevails under the new. The Ghosts of the Past (Ozzy Dio) disturbs the New in many ways, But Iommi, the real front man deserves respect by keep the band, for many years, alive.
hm yeah, i liked him..because in my opinion his vocals arent so great as 20 years ago, i heard he lost it because of smoking and other stuff dunno..he cant hit high notes anymore,i think his best times are over..but in the 80s and 90s he was an amazing but sadly underrated vocalist! for sure!
i'm partially agree with you, his voice was better 20 yeras ago, but in my opinion he's done good albums even in the last years (even if the performans live are not at the same level of show of 80' and 90')...so i can say that i like him even now..i tell you that until few time ago I don't knew so much about his solo career and about his collaborations...but in the last times i listened some albums and I'm happy to have done this..ind I'm waiting for new stuffs
@loouuni i don't still listening all the albums...i recently discovered that he recorded a lot of the albums [modifica] Solo 1992 - Back Where I Belong 2005 - Scream with Aldo Giuntini: 1998 - The Giuntini Project II 2006 - The Giuntini Project III with Dario Mollo: 1999 - The Cage 2002 - The Cage II and other I listened Scream and the cage 2, i like them...the problem is that this albums are difficult to find... but you can listen something even on youtube..
I like this one...The whole album, actually...COULD of course have something to do with the fact that it was the first Black Sabbath album i ever heard? Anyways, i dig the mood on this entire album!
man i don like tony martin's on sabbath
way too much keyboard for my taste...Ian gillian(dont know if i typed correctly) was the last "real" black sabbath era to me
