A Rocktopia / Fireworks Magazine album review by James Gaden: Black Sabbath had quite the time of it back in the eighties. Not content with losing original singer Ozzy Osbourne in the first place, the band managed to bounce back with Ronnie James Dio behind the microphone. Everything was going just fine until around the time of 'Live Evil' which saw the band fall apart. Ronnie went off to form his own self titled band, leaving Tony Iommi to ponder his next move. A brief stint with another legendary singer, Ian Gillan, spawned 'Born Again', the marmite album that fans either love or hate, no middle ground. Personally I loved it, but things continued to unravel as Gillan went back to Deep Purple. The next thing you know, Iommi had decided a solo album was the way to go and began work on what would eventually become 'Seventh Star'. http://ping.fm/U8fWY
