J2112YYZ Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Good luck finding them. I wonder if there's a bunch of copies of these albums sitting around in some storage space somewhere of if the record company just burned everything to the ground when they went under?

They're also on ebay for a similar price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormtron Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I still need to get Cross Purposes (used to have it on casette) and Forbidden. No one needs Forbidden. Seriously though, it's really f***ing bad. Just thinking about Shaking Off the Chains makes me sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The song Kiss Of Death is really good. A couple other decent tracks on it but nothing you need to hear too badly. Forbidden was rushed to be released as well. The Ozzy reunion was in the works but Iommi still owed the label another album, so Forbidden unfortunately happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted February 1, 2016 Author Share Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) And from those two pages I just posted it's clear that the Tony Martin era albums will all be remastered and or remixed and re-released in the next couple of years. So I wouldn't waste any money buying the old versions, especially for the crazy prices they want. Iommi owns the rights to all of the albums since they went out of print so he has control of it. Once the Ozzy tour is over and that era is in the books for good he can concentrate on releasing these albums again.

RUSHHEAD666 Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Let's hear about the HEADLESS CROSS and TYR and Cross Purposes! :aliensmiley: :aliensmiley: :blaze: :blaze: :haz: :haz: :haz: :haz: Pat! This is a great thread! I love all of these albums!!! COZY RULES!! On a side note I have to bring up The Eternal idol" record. I know Tony Martin is on the the record however it is important to mention the fact that Ray Gillan sang on that album first. I guess Iommi didn't care for it so he had Martin come into the studio and redo it. Of course Ray was the singer of Badlands and Sun Red Sun, Ray sadly died from AIDS. He's one of my all time favorite singers in the world. Also there is a two cd special edition of "The Eternal Idol." The first disc is with Tony on vocals. The second disc is with Ray. Ray blows Tony away. JMO "Seventh Star" with Glenn is fukking AWESOME!!! "Born Again" with Ian on vocals is AWESOME!!! I'm a SABBATH WHORE! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I LOVE the Tony Martin era from The Eternal Idol to Cross Purposes (Forbidden remains helpless).A good bunch of works that helped ressurect the Sabbath name; they probably deserved a wider success but both albums and gigs in those years belong to Sabbath legacy.'Ave Satani' from 'The Omen' soundtrack used in a couple of tours as shows intro is still creeping thru my skin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 No luck at my used record store.....Damn. Like I said though once the Sabbath tour is over and Iommi is done with Ozzy and Sharon he is going to remix/remaster and re-release all those Tony Martin albums and they'll be properly available again.
