From time to time I get questions about the availability of Black Sabbath’s catalogue on legal music download sites. During my recent hiatus, I was informed that two more Black Sabbath albums have turned up on iTunes. The albums are Born Again & The Eternal Idol. Previous to this, all of the Dio era albums […]

I was sent this story, which recently appeared on MTV.com’s news site.. *Black Sabbath* tributes by metal bands are a dime a dozen, so the newest disc of musical homages, /Everything Comes & Goes: A Tribute to Black Sabbath,/ is definitely a change of pace. Due April 5, the nine-track disc will feature reinventions of […]

I’m working on a huge update
March 15, 2005 by
Regular visitors to my site will notice I’ve been without updates for awhile. I’m finally over being sick, and I’ve started working on the backlog of stuff I have piled up.

I’m still here. :)
March 10, 2005 by
Sorry for being so late with news updates and whatnot. For the last couple of weeks I’ve been terribly sick with an upper respritory infection. Then I had a bunch of personal things to do with my wife’s baby shower. And I had family in. I was out of work for over a week with […]

Adam told me that he will be handling keyboards again for Black Sabbath during their 2005 live dates. I was curious about this, as keyboards have mostly been hidden – the keyboardist in Black […]
