TONY MARTIN!

 

[Sydo]

Sounds good

TONY MARTIN!

It needs more Headless Cross material and way less Ozzy era material, but whatever, it will be good to have a professional quality gig from when Tony was in the band

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I need to hear more 80s and 90s Sabbath. It is on 'the list', but haven't gotten around to getting any. Maybe I should make a trip to JB sometime...

 

[TinMan666]

I want this. NOW dammit NOW!

 

[spawn]

Buy The Headless Cross Blitzy

 

[Wrathchild]

The Best Singer Ever wasn't in very good health for most of the Cross Purposes tour, and (apparently) it shows in this performance. I'll get it anyway because I've always wanted to see a live Sabbath video from an era other than Ozzy. That's a bloody terrific setlist !.

Blitz, get a copy of "The Sabbath Stones" and go from there. It's a compilation of 80s and 90s era stuff that's much easier to find now than it once was.

[Blitzkrieg]

I have always wanted the 'Under The Wheels Of Confusion' boxset to get me started, but maybe I should just buy an album or two.

 

[Goreripper]

'Under Wheels of Confusion' is pretty cool, but only the last disc in the set has any post-Dio Sabbath on it, and then you get three different vocalists in Gillan, Hughes and Martin. 'Sabbath Stones' is better for 80s Sabbs.

 

[Wrathchild]

Under Wheels of Confusion only has two Tony Martin era songs on it, and one of them ain't too flash at all .

It's still a great box set. I bought it for myself for Christmas three years ago and (by sheer coincidence) am listening to it as I type.

[Blitzkrieg]

Hmm, perhaps I should pick up that, and 'Sabbath Stones' as well. Or should I just get all the albums and avoid the compilations? Because I hate getting compilations, then end up buying all the albums anyway and doubling up in everything.

 

[Goreripper]

If you're thinking of getting "all the albums", save yourself some trouble and just buy 'The Complete 70s Replica Collection' off Amazon. All the Ozzy albums in miniature LP replicas. Then get the Dio albums, 'Born Again', 'Headless Cross' and 'Tyr'. I'd skip 'Eternal Idol' and 'Seventh Star' as Sabbath (or rather Iommi) was at a pretty low point then.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Yeah that sounds like a rockin idea. I am only needing to get familiar with the post Dio stuff, as I have a lot from before then (though not all the albums, and that set would be cool).

What is 'Live Evil' like?

 

[Arcane]

Tony Martin is the greatest.

Can't wait for this DVD, i have the video/cd pack already though.

It is true that Tony was not at his best for these shows due to sickness, and his voice does crack a few times unfortunately.

 

[Spiff]

The Best Singer Ever wasn't in very good health for most of the Cross Purposes tour

The voice of rock, Glenn Hughes, only performed on Seventh Star.

Happy to help,

Spiffo

What is 'Live Evil' like?

Crap.

 

[Winmar]

Never heard Tony Martin. Anyone got a picture of him handy?

Gore, we agree on the crappiness of Live Evil, but I must take issue with your comments on The Eternal Idol. It may have been recorded at a time when Sabbath consisted of Tony Iommi, Tony Martin, a bunch of sessionmen and the bloke who dropped by the studio to fix the coffee machine, but there are still some great songs on that album. All of them except the title track in fact .
