[Heeplist] Black Sabbath (one more time)

[Dave Crookham]

Isn't "Illusions Of Power" on Forbidden? That's my favorite Martin era song.

The only Iommi record I haven't enjoyed is his s/t solo album; I really only 
liked the song with Ozzy, the rest sounded like Tony was trying to be too 
modern rather than being Tony. The Devil You Know is about as good as 
Dehumanizer to my ears, but not as good as Heaven & Hell or Mob Rules. I 
love all the Tony Martin albums, although Forbidden is the weakest of the 
lot (mainly cuz the production sucks), the rest are all superb. Of the Glenn 
Hughes albums, I only love Seventh Star, the two collaborations I think are 
about equal to The Devil You Know. And I may be the only one, but Born Again 
is one of my favorite metal albums ever, a unique mix of classic Sabbath 
sound with Gillan (the band) songwriting.

The more I've listened, the more I'm convinced that 13 is one of the best 
Sabbath/Iommi albums.

It depends on what kind of IOMMI MUSIC do you like more :) I must admit, as 
much as I enjoyed Black Sabbath with Dio (original disks, they were dynamic, 
inspired, philosophical - whatever, great overall!), so I was rather (well, 
quite predictably though) disappointed with The Devil You Know for it lacked 
almost all of the original ingredients being just plain dark and slow heavy 
metal which I do not fancy much. It was even worse with Iommi solo for me - 
so, "13" is at last the breath of fresh air. :)))
