I first saw Ted in 1984 (with Michael Schenker opening). Ted was simply amazing. He played great, sang great, and ran around that stage like a madman. I kid you not, he probably put 3 miles on the...

Uriah Heep - Into the Wild (Great, great album. Classy Hard Rock bordering on Metal with heavy use of the mighty Hammond organ to fill out the sound!)
Uriah Heep - Wake the Sleeper (Very good album...

I remember when Phil died. I was a senior in high school, and I was just crushed. I had been reading how Thin Lizzy might be getting back together later that year, and I was hoping it would happen....

Come on, Sabbath fans - here's a band you should be at least interested in a little bit (as they are contemporaries of Sabbath and helped develop early Heavy Metal).

Into The Wild is an album you...

So am I the only one here who likes The Eternal Idol, Tyr, and Cross Purposes more than Vol. 4 or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath?

I am a Sabbathian heretic, of that I have no doubt - but am I the only...

I am a Sabbathian Heretic - I like the Tony Martin era even more than (most of) the Ozzy era.

The Eternal Idol is my 3rd favorite Sabbath album. Cross Purposes and TYR are also Top 10 Sabbath...

Mandy Lion sucked. HARD. His, "I make love until somebody dies," routine was absolute garbage. It's like he was trying to be the baddest badass of them all, but instead he just looked like a...

Here are a couple of my favorite songs on the album...

I just got Uriah Heep's new album, Into The Wild, and I've got to say it's a really, really good album. Hell, I'll go so far as to say it's a great album. Of all the Heep albums I own this is my...

He certainly would have been a better choice than David Donato (who got as far as some demos and that picture session).

I can see Sabbath and Arden wanting this guy. It's a shame we didn't get an...

That's not what Iommi said.

He said that it was absolute nonsense that his discussion with that reporter was an, "Official statement."

My take from this is that they have been working on...

As much as I respect Bob Daisley and trust him on most things I find that very odd.

Like I said, the performance doesn't sound like Aldridge - it sounds like Carmine. (I'm a drummer, so I pick up...

I happen to think that Black Sabbath fans are a rather intelligent bunch with good taste, so I'm going to post a few tracks to get your feelings/opnions on the various songs.

These will be blind...

The Eternal Idol is a personal favorite. I loved that album from the first time I ever played it.

Here is my review of the album...
...

When I saw them on the CP tour in L.A./Hollywood Rondinelli was an absolute beast on the drums. He was such a perfect fit for the band, it made no sense to let him go. Cozy Powell was very, very...

The Tony Martin era was doomed from the start.

It didn't matter that it started with one of Sabbath's best albums. It didn't matter that Tony Martin was/is a great singer. The problems have been...

There's a Forbidden fan club??

The album isn't bad, but it isn't all that good, either. It's OK. I just wish Iommi had kept Bobby Rondinelli around for that one.

The bigger question, to me, is who played on the album.

Tommy got credited, but the performance on the album doesn't fit his style. Also, the drum sound is exactly what you'd hear from Carmine...

Aww, crap.

Usually when they make a big announcement about cancer and treatment and time off, etc, it means that it's serious and prospects aren't all that good for a successful recovery. That...

Both albums are each band's respective darkest albums to date. Both have some of each band's heaviest material.

Rocks is arguably Aerosmith's best album.

Fair Warning is right up with Van...

Actually, Paul rarely used falsetto. Rarely. He just has (or, more accurately, had) a great range. Now, his voice gets annoying when it gets into the stratosphere (as on the Crazy Nights album),...

No problem - I do. But like a lot of people your argument seems based on a limited exposure to the band's most popular songs, which are often some of their least challenging. Most of their best...

Did you actually listen to any of the songs I posted? Sounds like you didn't...

If you did, that's fine, but painting with that broad a brush you're bound to miss some things. A lot of things,...

Even their worst albums have a song or three that are pretty darned good. More than that if you like that particular style (most Sabbath fans aren't real big on the Pop Metal thing that KISS dabbled...
