The listen!!!!!!!!!

[jonhighbury]

Back to Eden - I received your cheque the other day, thank you so much it's incredibly generous of you. The bank said it will take about a month to process so will let you know when I have got the funds and it'll go into the fundraising pot. Many many thanks

[BACK TO EDEN]

I would like to thank BACK TO EDEN for sending me such awesome gifts - he certainly is the generous and giving person he portrays himself to be. Some of the things he sent would be 5 times as much here in Canada so they are impossible for me to get myself. Well my weekend is like Christmas all over again

I actually am so flabbergasted at what he sent me that I really am at a lose for words

May Christ bless you Doc!

Thelemech, YOUR HAPPINESS ENJOYING THOSE CD'S IS JUST AWESOOOOOME!!!!! left u a PM, i picked u up DEP today, one of the greatest cd's in the history of man!!!!

As for 8th star, IN MY EYES TO LOVE SABBATH YOU MUST LOVE THIS CD, A CERTIFIED MASTERPIECE!!!!! my goodness FROM ANOTHER WORLD, some of the greatest vocals EVER!!!!

That's cool. Everyone on this site seems to be really good folks, but I will say that Back to Eden sent me a welcome PM as soon as I joined a few days ago, and that was thoughtful. Different guy? Obviously, yes. But he does put himself out there in a generous and kind way.

Now in Darkness, thank you for the kind words, hope your enjoying the SUPER BOWL... some words on the new vinyl set you asked about in a dif thread u started, I THINK THE QUALITY IS STATE OF THE ART! it has a high price tag, but its very worth it...the weight of the box set is awesome heavy! sound quality solid!! and the extras inside very kool! JOE SIEGLER, i believe will be doing a review in the future... https://twitter.com/blacksabbathweb/...85109281214465 ...

Me too.

MASS MURDER PILL, Ron !!!! i picked up everything you wanted today and more... will send out in the morning, ...ENJOY!!!!!

BACK TO EDEN , I have sent you a PM

TYR66, was able to pick up one of the things that you wanted and quite a bit more... will send in the a.m..... ROCK ON!!!!

I am the world that hides
The universal secret of all time
Destruction of the empty spaces
Is my one and only crime
I've lived a thousand times
I found out what it means to be believed
The thoughts and images
The unborn child that never was conceived

When little worlds collide
I'm trapped inside my embryonic cell
And flashing memories
Are cast into the never ending well
The name that scorns the face
The child that never sees the cause of man
The deathly darkness that
Belies the fate of those who never ran

You got to believe me
I'm talking to you

Well I know it's hard for you
To know the reason why
And I know you'll understand
More when it's time to die
Don't believe the life you have
Will be the only one
You have to let your body sleep
To let your soul live on

I want you to listen
I'm trying to get through

Love has given life to you
And now it's your concern
Unseen eyes of inner life
Will make your soul return
Still I look but not to touch
The seeds of life are sown
Curtain of the future falls
The secret stays unknown

Just remember love is life
And hate is living death
Treat your life for what it's worth
And live for every breath
Looking back I've lived and learned
But now I'm wondering
Here I wait and only guess
What this next life will bring

[Thelemech]

Sent you a PM Doc!

[ronn]

fluff! I am in heaven doc! is that only antony iommi playing? the guitar player?

[UnderTheSun]

Sorry for going off topic (whatever the topic is) but what the heck is going on in here? Why did everyone start behaving like they’re under some kinda mass psychosis? JESUS-SAVES or BACK TO EDEN or whatever obviously knows his Sabbath but I do wonder what kinda doctor he is… The worrying part is that many old time members seem to have completely changed and turned into docile JESUS-SAVES apostles. I guess those CDs hand outs are really worth dying for, eh?

Anyways, take care and may Bog blast all of you.

Great song, "Am I Going Insane (Radio)"!!!! no need tobe sorry, the topic is "the listen!!!!!" 100 people strong now.... anything SABBATH goes!!!!! some rules apply only for those involved..... dying for???? not sure what that means, but anyone involved with me will be blessed, thats not conceit, just a fact.... thank you for the post and the kind words about my sabbath knowledge ... God Bless

Now in Darkness, i guess that site i left for you of Joe recieving his vinyl box doesn't work anymore....my bad

Ronn, lets just say that's 99 percent iommi....but again anything SABBATH is ATLEAST 99 percent iommi!!!!!!!

GUYS, i may have some inside news on the new album, big news, i will find out tonight....if accurate i will report back with the info, if allowed too.... PUMPED!!!

Meaning what?

I can say in my case that even though I find Eden's writing on the odd side, I was not one of those who said his giving out cd's were fake. Stranger things have happened.

THANKS RON!!!!! i think

RON, THELEMECH, TYR66 your packages are in your countries and ready for delivery or pick up!!!!!! left u each a PM with your USA tracking numbers....ENJOY!!!!


JOHN 3:16......AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am totally out to lunch on this thread... I have no clue what it's about... I'm curious, but I can't seem to make heads or tales of what it's about or what "we" do in it..???

I'm not part of "the listen", but I do watch this thread for interest's sake. Back to Eden is passionate about a couple of things in his life, and I respect his exuberance and commitment. His generosity is intriguing, and he must be very kind to do what he does for perfect strangers. Joe has given this thread his stamp of approval, and I believe that sometimes we have to learn to accept things that we don't readily understand. There are much worse things in this world than "the listen" and being passionate about Black Sabbath and Jesus Christ.

[TYR66]

I want to say here many many thanx to Back to Eden .

My package is arrived today with some unexpected presents .

Incredible ..... but true . Difficult to find the right words , but that's it .
Star of India is playing now and it's awesome ! Eye of the Storm ( proto-Turn to Stone ) is a killer .

[ronn]

Hymm 43 - Jethro Tull

Oh father high in heaven -- smile down upon your son
Whose busy with his money games -- his women and his gun.
Oh Jesus save me!
And the unsung Western hero killed an Indian or three
And made his name in Hollywood
To set the white man free.
Oh Jesus save me!
If Jesus saves -- well, He'd better save Himself
From the gory glory seekers who use His name in death.
Oh Jesus save me!
I saw him in the city and on the mountains of the moon --
His cross was rather bloody --
He could hardly roll His stone.
Oh Jesus save me!

[Ozzyhead]

Sent you a PM Doc!

[Ozzyhead]

Hello again Back to Eden,


Thanks so much for the quick reply! I am interested in the material that "OzzyIsDio" was talking about in the thread, earth demo's and sabbath rarities. To be able to understand where Sabbath came from, the start would give one more appreciation of the music in my opinion. Any rarities & oddballs would be greatly appreciated. I have been listening to Sabbath since I was about 14, some 30 years ago.

I would also like to thank Joe Siegler for providing this forum to all of us. I don't post very often, but I read a lot. So I know he puts his own money into keeping it going. Much thanks & god bless you both!!!

[BACK TO EDEN]

HA!!!! i see where you guys got some of your questions and comments....LOVE that your all enjoying all the forums!!!! thanks for the text n emails..

Yes, all the pieces EDtrader does are awesome...love the eternal idol doc he put together...

saw the Charger/Martin thread... great post, and tony martin is awesome and class!!

Billy is a thousand percent correct... that is an intended off beat at the end of "who's fooling who" , and it's exactly what makes sabbath so awesome, the subtle moments of change and greatness among notes, songs, and albums....love it!!!

Love selling my soul.... and as for BILL WARD, the man has nothing to prove...he was/IS tremendous! As for Brad, i couldn't be any more excited about him being on the new cd!!!!

Yes tim, Sorry it was top secret ...

Page and Zep are tremendous! Blackmore and Purple even better! IOMMI AND SAB AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT SPORT!! when zep and purple are running as fast as they can, and there looking for sab, they don't look behind they look forward.... and there is still no sign....

Frank, ha.... no comment on that thread.... just spread goodness!!

Guys, i left in verona... a dave walker jr eyes, a donato no way out, born again demos, both 7th star demos (instrumentals and star of india), all 3 different eternal idol demos, the fenholt/ray boot, a headless cross edit, tyr demos, 4 pack dehumanizer demo, forbidden demos (FORBIDDEN IS SUCH A GREAT AND UNDERRATED ALBUM!!!!), a bastard and a something wicked, a scary dreams, an 8th star, the innocence, i spy, god rest ye merry, and out of my mind single.... take! listen! enjoy!!!

Bob, imagine 'YOU CAN'T KILL ROCK N ROLL' off diary never being faded out and turned down at the end of the song, well that is what it is like for me hearing the 7th star demo version of HEART LIKE A WHEEL..... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW-ZER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
