A remixed and remastered Born Again would be bliss!

So whatever came about with the H&H anniversary DVD? I don't even know what the thing was supposed to be. They kept saying they were working on it, but never description or anything else.

I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about, but they are releasing this;

I think they'll do it in time. They maybe have to tell Ian Gillan if they want to do it because it will be another outlet of royalty payments for him. That's what I think. But yeah! I say just go for it, I love how it sounds now and I'd love it to be also remastered/remixed in a more dry way or something. It might be hard to top the evil sound of it.

That will make a great companion to the Dio Live At Donnington shows being released next week.

Okay so it's n00b time.

Until a few days ago, the only Black Sabbath songs I'd ever heard were on Paranoid and 1992's Dehumanizer (with Dio). Seriously. I've always had a desire to get into their music, particularly this year when War Pigs became something of a signature song for my band, but for whatever reason I never got around to it. I listened to Heaven and Hell and Mob Rules first and enjoyed them as songs in the same vein as those from Dehumanizer.

Tonight, I listened to their eponymous first album and I just can't get over how awesome it is. I've always liked Paranoid but this absolutely blew it out of the water. I seriously wanted to sit down and learn every song on the album on the spot. It's so kickass!

I'm going to keep going through their discography and probably stopping after Sabotage.

SPNKr · « **Reply #80 on:** May 25, 2011, 07:46:12 PM »

Don't forget Master Of Reality, Vol 4, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.

Global Laziness · « **Reply #81 on:** May 25, 2011, 08:04:53 PM »

No I meant through all of the albums until Sabotage.

Jirpo · « **Reply #82 on:** May 25, 2011, 09:47:38 PM »

Black Sabbath rules! The first 5 albums are amazing, Sabotage and Technical Ecstacy are really underrated.

Get into the Tony Martin era too, very underrated and some fantastic albums in there.

Mladen · « **Reply #83 on:** May 26, 2011, 01:59:38 AM »

Get ready for Master of reality. One of my favorite albums of all time.

Bad idea. Never Say Die has some interesting moments. Born Again is a dark, underrated masterpiece IMO. Seventh Star is great classic rock, and Headless Cross, TYR, Eternal Idol and Cross Purposes are my preferred Sabbath works. Completely different from their early stuff but amazing music nevertheless.

Interesting. The reason I was planning on stopping at Sabotage (aside from the three later albums with Dio I already mentioned) was simply because I heard the rest just weren't very good.

Never Say Die is a great underappreciated album. Check it out

This is great news. Since the Dio lineup is no longer possible, this is the best thing to happen. Ozzy's last two solo albums weren't very good, but we all know Tony Iommi is still the master, so an album is a win-win to me.

I personally thought that was his first album with zero redeeming value. It's just slop to me. At least Black Rain had a few great tracks.

Ah, I feel Black Rain as his worst album and Scream as big Redeemer. To each their own

KevShmev · « **Reply #94 on:** August 16, 2011, 12:43:22 PM »

Yawn. Ozzy has no voice left, so this is basically another cash grab by that evil witch Sharon Osbourne. And with Dio no longer living, Sabbath either has to go with Ozzy (the only other singer the public will accept) or call it a day.

Gadough · « **Reply #95 on:** August 16, 2011, 01:02:55 PM »

**UPDATE**: According to Classic Rock magazine, Tony Iommi's management has strongly denied the authenticity of this story, claiming that the guitarist hasn't spoken to Birmingham Mail for two months. ***

BLACK SABBATH Guitarist Says There Has Been No Official Confirmation Of Reunion - Aug. 16, 2011

Quote

BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi has released the following statement regarding the reports of a reunion of the band's original lineup:

"I'm saddened that a Birmingham journalist whom I trusted has chosen this point in time to take a conversation we had back in June and make it sound like we spoke yesterday about a BLACK SABBATH reunion.

"At the time I was supporting the Home Of Metal exhibition was merely speculating shooting the breeze on something all of us get asked constantly, 'Are you getting back together?'

"Thanks to the Internet it's now gone round the world as some sort of 'official' statement on my part; absolute nonsense. I hope he's enjoyed his moment of glory, he won't have another at my expense.

"To my old pals, Ozzy, Geezer and Bill, sorry about this, I should have known better."

The original SABBATH lineup has not toured together since summer 2005, and last convened for their induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in early 2006.

SABBATH did try to record a new album 12 years ago, their first since 1978, but abandoned the attempt after just a couple of songs.

Good, it just wouldn't work. Ozzy is finished and I don't see Bill going through with a full tour. Iommi should either make Whocares a full time project, get Tony Martin back and do an album, or do another collaboration with Glenn Hughes.

Gadough · « **Reply #99 on:** August 16, 2011, 05:00:19 PM »

Yeah, Bill would be the major problem with a reunion, not Ozzy. Sharon would force Ozzy to do it for the money. But Bill has a mind of his own, and I can't see him voluntarily choosing to do this.

ACID_FOX · « **Reply #100 on:** August 16, 2011, 05:25:19 PM »

As if Ozzy needs more money.

Gadough · « **Reply #101 on:** August 16, 2011, 05:34:01 PM »

I never said Ozzy needed money. $haron does.

jjrock88 · « **Reply #102 on:** August 16, 2011, 07:45:53 PM »

A reunion with Tony Martin would be very very cool. I don't see there being much money in it, but I doubt Iommi needs the cash. The cult fan following for the Martin era would be very happy to see it though.

Orbert · « **Reply #103 on:** August 16, 2011, 10:05:34 PM »

I guess I'm not up on current events. Why would Bill Ward be the problem?

Gadough · « **Reply #104 on:** August 16, 2011, 10:08:17 PM »

He comes across in interviews as an old man who's basically saying, in so many words, "I'm too old for this shit." Which there's nothing wrong with, btw. I don't blame him.
