Black Sabbath Deluxe Editions I love all of that jazz jamming on the first album. That is one of the reasons it is my favorite. I have an original pressing of it on vinyl.

I'd agree about the first side of Sabotage. On Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, I really like A National Acrobat, Spiral Architect, and Sabbra Cadabra. You know shit is weird when Bill Ward gets a song on the album. Guns N' Roses use to cover It's Alright. Never Say Die! is better than Technical Ecstasy, that's for sure. You know the story about Live Evil - which is why Ronnie left the first time.

Taper's Section (May 17 - May 23, 2010)

I think I paid around 15 bucks each for those cds.

It's junk, really. At least the ABCKO re-masters sound pretty good, and are at the right speed. I saw a headline a while back somewhere that stated he had lost millions of dollars last year.

They were re-mastered once before: Rolling Stones Wikipedia entry And then again last year - March 2, 2009, New York, NY - Universal Music Group are pleased to announce the reissue of the Rolling Stones re-mastered, post-1971 studio albums into the market throughout 2009 starting in May. I think the next thing with be a Sticky Fingers deluxe release.

A nice post from Eddie Trunk. One of my favorite songs from the Ian Gillan period: Born Again

The sound is weird on that album. And of course, it all fell apart again, when Ozzy called and wanted them to play at his so-called last show. Ronnie said no thanks, and who did the show? Rob Halford, of course.

I think there are some good songs on Technical Ecstasy and Never Say Die. It's just that they changed their sound, so they are a different trip. That can be said of Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage also. I'd say my favorites are Black Sabbath, and Vol. 4. Not that there is anything wrong with Paranoid, or Master of Reality. The Rainbow albums he was on were Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow (1975), Rainbow Rising (1976), On Stage (1977), and Long Live Rock 'n' Roll (1978). The only Dio solo albums I ever really heard were Holy Diver (1983), The Last in Line (1984), and Sacred Heart (1985).

When I think of Dio, I think of Rainbow, as that is where I first heard him. Out of all the albums he made with Sabbath, Heaven and Hell is the best one I think.

Outside of the few people who post in this thread, I doubt very many people here would be all that interested.

I think he was born in New Hampshire, and then moved to Cortland, New York. There is a street named after him in Cortland.

(I think there are 7 or 8 segments all together.)

Black Sabbath - Wishing Well This takes me back to the high school-MTV days: Dio-Holy Diver Vinnie is trying to channel Cozy Powell there, I do believe.

I just saw it somewhere - and went straight to Black Sabbath.com. I knew Joe would have the truth posted - either way. I recall reading somewhere that the upcoming tour was canceled, so I figured something was not right. Whether you like the music or not, (it's not for everyone) the dude was a hell of a singer.

I've heard the booklet is nice.

I have not got it yet. I suppose I will at some point.

It's a drag - but I can't stand to look at garbage lying around all over the place. The city goes after people who pile it up around their house, so that is something at least. There was a house down a ways from me a few years ago that had the beginnings of a land fill going on in their back yard. Some people don't give a shit, until they come home and finds rats in their kitchen. Then they give a shit.

Where I live, college kids do that all the time. I often wonder they learned that behavior. I pick up garbage everyday on my way down the street.
