Movement with Tony Martin?

Those of you who have been following my site for awhile know I have an affinity for the Tony Martin era of Black Sabbath.  I’ve long since been a proponent that there’s far more to Black Sabbath’s history than the time that Oz & Ronnie were behind the microphone.   However, since they got back together […]

So, word has come down today about a “final tour” for Black Sabbath.   A thought about that…

The Great Lefty Iommi Tribute

Tribute albums aren’t always the most interesting one to me.  Probably because the bulk of them just make me want to listen to the originals again.  However, this one got my attention, and I wanted to say something about it.   Coming out next month (May 4) is a double CD tribute to Tony Iommi.  Not […]

It’s fitting that on the week of the 25th anniversary I discover a new cover.  The Italian band “Hollow Haze” has a cover of the title track from the “Headless Cross” album.  This came out a couple of years ago, but I’d never heard of it before today.   Check it out, the video is […]
