@@thereagauze I think it's clear in retrospect Iommi had the most vision in Black Sabbath. Even in recent years, Iommi wanted to write a new album after 13 but Ozzy and Geezer didn't have interest.
I'm so glad they re-released these albums. Along with the Eternal Idol, these albums prove once and for all that Tony Martin was a hell of a vocalist and deserved so much more credit and praise than he ever got! Damn good albums!! Thanks Tony for putting these out!
Great comment I could not agree more, Tony M deffo know how to string an interesting melody together over Mr Iommi's supercool guitar riffs! Fantastic album no doubt!
I am a Black Sabbath fan of the Dio and Martin's(Ray Gillen) eras. I can count on my fingers how many times i listened to a Sabbath Ozzy Era song sung by Ozzy. So i can say that all of Martin's albums are awesome.
Totally agree. Dio and Tony are the best. I prefer TYR one million times than Paranoid. I can't stand Ossie whining all the time, he just couldn't sing, he was pathetic and boring, so he was, by far, Sabbath's worst singer ever. Ossie is the most overrated guy in heavy metal history. I had all of his Sabbath albums on vinyl and thrown all of them away
LOVE THIS ALBUM! Cozy's thunderous, varied fills are majestic and Tony's vocals are sublime. Easily my second favourite Sabbath singer after Dio (I might've revised my opinion if Ray Gillen had stayed but I guess if he did, we'd have never had Badlands...). Hope Tony Iommi does something with Tony Martin again, a few shows or new music. Could even draft in Neil Murray and Bobby Rondinelli ❤
I've always had a thing for Ian Gillian (forgive the spelling if I got it wrong). I think it's more about the formula and the incredible creativity from the riffs to the lyrics to the underlying themes, attitude and style that thread through the original 8 studio albums and to a lesser degree the rest of the bands albums
As a longtime fan of Black Sabbath from back in the 70's it does not matter who is singing as long as Tony Iommi is playing his guitar because I have liked them all, so it did not take long to like Tony Martin...his voice is a perfect fit.
Eternal Idol, Headless Cross and Tyr are emblematic albums. Where Black Sabbath achieves impressive sound quality and instrumental weight. The band's composition in these projects revealed the vision that Iommi desires, they are unforgettable and essential masterpieces in the history of Heavy Metal.
God this is Sabbath's most powerful song ever. The drums, bass, synth, guitar and screeching vocals, everything strikes as a sledgehammer and I love it
A partir de agora TONY MARTIN vai ter o merecido reconhecimento por seu trabalho no BLACK SABBTH que ficou por décadas escondido, Tony é incrível e uma lenda nos vocais. Já estava na hora dessas músicas serem relançadas, parabéns os seus fans agradecem 👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thank you Mr. Iommi for shining a big beautiful light on the Tony Martin era! One of the best metal singers ever! Probably one of my most anticipated releases ever with this upcoming box set. Thanks again! My brain and my ears cannot wait😊😊😊
Well said Sir the 1st Sabbath I brought I was 12yo back in 1992 from a record shop in Dudley it was the Eternal Idol thinking it was Ozzy Singing to my surprise it wasn't but I was 12yo but I loved it still have it today on cassette.
@@jimmy-stourbridge-fc8980 1990's had great music mate! I finally got to see Black Sabbath in 2012 and 2015 on the 13 Final Tour. To this day..I regret not spending $150 to see Heaven and Hell in Sydney August 2007. I missed my only chance to see Ronnie James Dio live.
My favourite is Heaven in Black, but then again, I'm a big Cozy Powell fan , Bless him!!! Anno Mundi is also great though! I personally like the whole album.
Bow down to the master. The heavy metal god, the one riffmaster to rule them all. And to the singer and lyricist equalled by few and surpassed by none. And to the thunderous rhythm section from hell, and to the inimitable provider of eerie atmosphere behind the keys. Bow down to Black Sabbath.
Tyr is just such a wonderful record. I was so shocked when Dio returned for the follow-up, it took me three decades to get over it and listen to Dehumanizer.
I really like the work of Glenn Hughes on Seventh Star too. And also thing that the game could be very different if Ray Gillen had more time with Sabbath, that guy could really sing
A great album and all the albums with Tony Martin are a delight to my ears, I love this stage of Black Sabbath and I had the opportunity to see the original line-up + Tony Martin in Chile greetings from Chile
hopefully, Iommi has one more go of it and has a final Black Sabbath tour with Tony Martin. the Martin era is ignored by so many Sabbath ‘fans’ but has some of the most powerful, well written material in their catalogue.
Tony Iommi and Ozzy Osborne are 50/50 co- owners of the Black Sabbath name unless three original members are recorded it will not be released under the name Black Sabbath.
@@AenigmakilOzzy Osborne announced on his podcast that Black Sabbath has unfinished business and wants to play one more final show with Bill Ward on the drums and Geezer Butler has agreed to it. Tony Iommi has retired from touring and hadn't agreed to do it yet but didn't rule it out either. Tony Martin stated that Tony Iommi isn't interested to tour under another name. Tony Martin is free to hire musicians and tour if he wants to.
The opening Riff on the guitar remind me distinctly of children of the sea and even though it's the same guitarist and not note for note it does invoke the same atmosphere
With his appearance in the band Toni Martin revived Black Sabbath, created and with his brilliant voice sang unforgettable songs. The keyboard is incredible.... the riffs too, but the drums are TOP!
Tony Martin's vocal range and performance on this album and Headless Cross is absolutely stunning.
He is also great on The Eternal Idol and Cross Purposes.
@@darkmarv8045those are both good albums, but Tyr and Headless Cross rise above everything else. Tony Martin's voice was peak level
The real Pinnacle of his vocal lines is in this album... AMAZING record...
Sounds Alot like DIO✌️💯💥
he never repeats a melody! The guy is very creative.
Forever Cozy Powell
true 😎
So damn true
🥁
TYR is a masterpiece album . It's perfect from beginning to end
I agree.. It doesn't get the credit it deserves... It's almost like the forgotten album. It's a hidden gem..
Without Tony Iommi, thir are no Black Sabbath and Heaven And Hell. He is the man who hold the name forever and kept it shining for the metal world.
Pretty much Tony's band from the beginning. As it was, so shall it be.
@@robertspence831 once he returned from Tull he took control, they might have just have been a blues bar band if not for him steering them.
@@thereagauze I think it's clear in retrospect Iommi had the most vision in Black Sabbath. Even in recent years, Iommi wanted to write a new album after 13 but Ozzy and Geezer didn't have interest.
tony iommi is so important in black sabbath i am still impressed about the riffs
I'm so glad they re-released these albums. Along with the Eternal Idol, these albums prove once and for all that Tony Martin was a hell of a vocalist and deserved so much more credit and praise than he ever got! Damn good albums!! Thanks Tony for putting these out!
Tony Martin was unreal. His voice lines on "do you follow the path?" and "do you look to the dawn?" give me the chills everytime
By far the best era. 💪💪💪💪
One of the best vocal performances of all time. The way the main riff builds up to the chorus adds to the epic feeling of the song.
I'd agree
Great comment I could not agree more, Tony M deffo know how to string an interesting melody together over Mr Iommi's supercool guitar riffs! Fantastic album no doubt!
Those intro riffs might just be the greatest moment in heavy metal history.
This album might actually be the peak of Iommi's guitar playing.
he deserved to be a member of black sabbath
God bless Cozy Powell !!!
This album is a hidden gem... Almost like the forgotten child of the band...
I am a Black Sabbath fan of the Dio and Martin's(Ray Gillen) eras.
I can count on my fingers how many times i listened to a Sabbath Ozzy Era song sung by Ozzy.

@@marcusmascarenhascs742 100% agree with you
One of the best songs of Martin's era.
When I was young I didn't understand this album, but when I grew up I saw its class. It's the same with the Bruce Dickinson SKUNKWORKS album.
Both phenomenal albums.
Finally. I love Black Sabbath's Tony Martin era. Fill the gap in spotify, please.
on the 31st
Martins era is so good❤
the best one
@@fabricegrard1001The Dio era is vocally and musically superior.
@@alistairlindsay1019I think Martin is just as good as Dio, just not as accomplished.
Tony Martin we salute you!!!!!!!!! ⚡⚡
I leved the Headless Cross - Tyr era and remember getting my Tyr vinyl signed by Tony Iommi and Cozy Powell in Birmingham. I still have it.
Tony Martin is a legendary vocalist clearly Iommi is fond of him and rightly so. I'm a fan
This guitar solo is so beautiful that makes me travel to the desert at night...
LOL, get a woman.
@@Luiz.Campos your mother...
Geoff Nichols keyboards are amazing here
TYR and Headless Cross are the best albums because of brilliant Tony Martin`s vocal.
Tony Martin, shines once again. What a GREAT song..What a riff !!!!! Really THANK YOU my dear Tony Iommi...MY GOD !!!! What an album !!!
One of my favorite riffs and Tony Martin's vocals were killer. Incredibly underrated album and track in particular.
The best song of the Martin era. Iommi's riff is killer. No surprise.
LOVE THIS ALBUM! Cozy's thunderous, varied fills are majestic and Tony's vocals are sublime. Easily my second favourite Sabbath singer after Dio (I might've revised my opinion if Ray Gillen had stayed but I guess if he did, we'd have never had Badlands...).

Cozy on fire.
Tony Martin the Best Singer from Black Sabbath
I've always agreed
And Dio
I've always had a thing for Ian Gillian (forgive the spelling if I got it wrong). I think it's more about the formula and the incredible creativity from the riffs to the lyrics to the underlying themes, attitude and style that thread through the original 8 studio albums and to a lesser degree the rest of the bands albums

Sabbath listener for about 50 years. I saw all the different vocalists with Sabbath. So glad to hear anything from him.
Just curious , have you seen ray Gillan , and glen Hughes perform with Sabbath ?

One word: TRANSCENDENT!
The period with Tony Martin are total underrated🤩
Not anymore!

Tony Martin ❤ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 true heavy metal legend
Thank God its not heavy metal. This is clasdic hard rock. Metal has no melody. This is way too melodic and sophisticated to be metal.
After all these years this band still kicks ass. I'll have to get this album.
I don't diaagree. But This album is almost 35 years old.
My favorite Martin era Album !! It's such a fantastic and underrated album 🤘
The ultimate Martin era Sabbath anthem.
I've ordered my Tony Martin era Black Sabbath box set! Finally Tony gets the recognition he truly deserves!

Agreed, gives me the chills still after all these years
I think it's the best from the band
TYR=MASTERPIECE
Bow down to the master. The heavy metal god, the one riffmaster to rule them all. And to the singer and lyricist equalled by few and surpassed by none. And to the thunderous rhythm section from hell, and to the inimitable provider of eerie atmosphere behind the keys.
Bow down to Black Sabbath.
ANNNOOO MUUUNDIIIIIII YEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
one of the best Black Sabbath songs
Tyr is just such a wonderful record. I was so shocked when Dio returned for the follow-up, it took me three decades to get over it and listen to Dehumanizer.
One of the best Sabbath albums, so many good riffs
This prolly the thousand time I've listened to this killer song. It never gets old.
The music from this Sabbath era is something else, my favourite!
Tony Martin es un magnífico vocalista total genio
EPIC.... Those keyboards with the riffing.. One of Tony Martin's best vocal performances.
This track is pure ecstasy ✨
One of my fav Sabbath songs ever
My favorite Sabbath!! Tony Martin was criminally underrated !!
I would really love a new album with Tony Martin !
I remember the first time I heard this. Now I am hearing it again, and it feels like the first time. Awesome tune.
Dio and Tony Martin best black sabbath singers
I really like the work of Glenn Hughes on Seventh Star too. And also thing that the game could be very different if Ray Gillen had more time with Sabbath, that guy could really sing
"When Death Calls" next please!
And "Kill in the spirit world"
A great album and all the albums with Tony Martin are a delight to my ears, I love this stage of Black Sabbath and I had the opportunity to see the original line-up + Tony Martin in Chile greetings from Chile
I always love this song
I like all the vocalists of Sabbath because my ears work. 🤘
Good for you.

Tony Iommi has officially announced his retirement from touring but a couple shows under the name Anno Domini could happen in Birmingham England.

AT LAST T.M. ERA!!! GLORY FOREVER!!!
Martin at his PEAK, the 3 hour shows and touring beat his voice up. mad Props still
absolutely love this song.. so glorious and powerful
he's got nothing to envy of the other sabbath singers only jorn lande who'd have the voice to do these songs well
✝️
my favorite Sabbath song.
Masterpiece! Viva Tony Martin era
Tony's vocal performance on this is unbelievable.
Tony Martin’s voice was golden!
canción mas infravalorada de la historia
The opening Riff on the guitar remind me distinctly of children of the sea and even though it's the same guitarist and not note for note it does invoke the same atmosphere
I was thinking the same thing. Still great though!
This song is epic! Never ceases to amaze me just like the first time I heard it.
I remember myself ten years old seeing the cover of the album first time on Metal Hammer. Magic!
Top 5- best Sabbath album
It was about time Tony Iommi, thanks
Those vocals are supurb
Martin is amazing! My favorite Sabbath singer after Dio!
I walked miles through snow to get this lp. This track stood out as a rare chance for Iommi to solo and not be constrained
Tyr was an awesome album, great opening track.
Моё знакомство с live Black Sabbath началось в конце 80-х в мааскве именно с Тони на вокале ! и Кози Пауелл на барабанах
Даааа!!! Ноябрь и декабрь 1989 года. Я был 2 декабря, Петербург, СКК.
With his appearance in the band Toni Martin revived Black Sabbath, created and with his brilliant voice sang unforgettable songs. The keyboard is incredible.... the riffs too, but the drums are TOP!
I've seen every incarnation of Sabbath, and Tony Martin is, in my opinion, the singer that defines the magic of the band.
A fase que eu mais curti do Black Sabbath.
Absolute gems on all the Martin albums. So glad to see these records getting re released. Thanks to all involved.
Вокалист одно наслаждение для души сердце радуется
One of my favourite tracks from Tony Martins era of Sabbath. Superb
fucking masterpiece!!!!
i have a bootleg cassette of this album and it is the cassette that i enjoy listening to the most, primo tony martin era.
I had this playing on cassette tape on repeat in my car when it first came out. Fantastic stuff. Thanks Tony! 😎🤘🏻
What a magnificent song 🤘
Beautiful sound , the one of my favorites !!! Thanks Mr. Tony Iommi !!!
Brilliant. Can’t wait for the box set next week.
This remaster confirms for me that what kept this era of Sabbath from soaring wasn't the material or execution but the lack of top flight production.
Your eyes are burniiiiiing 🔥🔥
Love it!
