    Tirelli is one of the great American metal vocalists. Up there with Carl Albert, John Arch, Midnight, and Geoff Tate. He deserves far more recognition than he gets.

      I remember seeing Vicious Rumors (around 91 I believe) at a local bar in Southern Illinois and was so hyped that I got to see Carl. There might have been 50-100 people in the bar that night. They played like there was 5,000. They were the coolest guys. We all got hammered with them, bought em drinks and hung out through the night. We talked influences and so many other topics. I’ll never forget that night and how incredible Carl (Ace) sounded. Talk about a talent taken too soon. RIP Carl Albert. You are truly missed. Never got to see Midnight or John Arch unfortunately. Did get to see Ray Alder on the No Exit Tour though. I think Midnights inner demons just got him. RIP. Great post btw!!!

This song “children of the sea” was the first sone Ronnie ever made with Black Sabbath after Ozzy was fired from Black Sabbath in 79 and he got out to California right around when Tony Iommi was looking for a new singer and Ronnie happened to be a perfect fit. He wrote this song basically over night for them with Tony and the rest of Black Sabbath .
