Considering that Tony Iommi is the sole remaining member from the classic Sabbath lineup, it's not surprising that the centerfold of the CD booklet finds him sitting alone in his black Porsche. Changing personnel more times than Spinal Tap changed drummers, Iommi was determined to keep the Sabbath name alive in the metal-friendly late '80s. 1987's ETERNAL IDOL is a powerful, if uneven, record.

Tony Martin's strong vocals, along with Iommi's melodic riffing, carry IDOL throughout. "The Shining" and "Glory Ride" are fine headbanging numbers, while "Scarlett Pimpernel" is a somber acoustic instrumental. The title track is an epic tune, and the grand finale to an impressive album. For IDOL, Iommi wrote all the songs and IS Black Sabbath, though the additional musicians, all metal veterans, contribute to the music. IDOL is a thumbs-up winner.

Recorded at Air Studios, Monserrat; Air Studios, Battery Studios, London, England.

Black Sabbath: Tony Martin (vocals); Tony Iommi (guitar); Geoff Nicholls (keyboards); Dave Spitz; Bob Daisley (bass); Eric Singer (drums); Bev Bevan (percussion).

Producers: Vic Coopersmith-Heaven, Chris Tsangerides, J. Glixman.

4 stars great 80's sabbath
this is more of a power-metal sabbath, featuring some slick guitar work from iommi and some harmonic metal vocals from tony martin. Overall a very cleanly produced album, yet a forgotten one in the sabbath canon. "the shining" and the title track are worth the price of admission alone.

5 stars A must have
I have been a Black Sabbath fan for 25 years and this is truly one of their best efforts...very reminiscent of the Dio era (ie. Heaven and Hell, Mob Rules) this has a wonderful sound of its own, bluesy, soulful and yes heavy enough to be called Sabbath. One of my favorites of all - I never get tired of listening to this one.

5 stars Glorious! Deserves a 6 stars rating!
Guys, this is one of the BEST albums of ALL TIME!! Guitar and the Bassguitar are absolutely POWERFUL! The Drumming is so groovy and Mighty! Tony's voice comes from both the Hell and the Heaven... Production (Jeff Glixman) and mixing are perfect even for today's hi-tech standards. Buy it NOW!!!

5 stars A Classic 80s Masterpiece!
As the title says, it most definitly shows how Black Sabbath progressed through a great decade of the 80s. First off, in comes Tony Martin on vocals,what a killer set of pipes this Brit has, the songs are all very catchy and memorable such as Hard Life to Love and Nightmare...If you liked the Dio era of the Sabbs, then this album is an absolute MUST! Heavy, Loud, Long Live Rock, and Once you have listened to the Dio/Tony Martin Era you will appreciate OZZY leaving Sabbath...

5 stars Tony Iommi is the metal god.
Powerful, glorious and mayestetic. What can I say? This is a top album by Iommi, definitely. If you are looking for genuine heavy metal with a touch of golden riffs, stop looking!
