In Memory..... of a 20 year old Star

[Wyvern]

It's clearly not an impartial note, but nevertheless is worth reading. 20 years ago "Seventh Star" was released, the first Iommi solo album IMO, but...

Great album, that I think is infinitely better then the recent Iommi/Hughes albums (which are good but not great). Definately has it's own unique vib.

When I read that article, it prompted me to listen to Seventh Star which I hadn't listened to in quite a while. The album is definetly not one of Sabbath's best, but still, it has its moments like the title track which is pure Sabbath with its doomy vive - a great track! The rest of the album sounds somewhat dated, very 80's hard rock. This is not a bad thing per se but it does stray from the classic Sabbath sound, especially with Glenn Hughes' having more of a bluesy voice.
