Rocktopia: Black Sabbath - 'The Eternal Idol' (Deluxe) - CD Review

A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by James Gaden: With Ray Gillen on board for vocals, Tony Iommi completed the Seventh Star tour and began work on a new album to be issued once again under the Black Sabbath moniker. He chose to bring back Eric Singer for drum parts and hired bass player/songwriter Bob Daisley to assist with the songwriting (despite the original versions of this album making no mention of this). Once again, Sabbath's ability to lose singers like Spinal Tap lose drummers reared it's head and Gillen quit the band. In came another relative unknown, Tony Martin. And guess what? Despite all this, once again, 'The Eternal Idol' is excellent! http://ping.fm/4TJoE
