Excellent Melodic Hard Rock, 23 May 2003
By David K. Barrett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Back Where I Belong (Audio CD)
Ok, I am biased, I am a big Tony Martin fan. I also wish that Sabbath kept Mr. Martin. Tony can sing, and Tony will work...Anyway, the songs are great, more like Deep Purple rather than Black Sabbath though. The music is little lighter than the Cage stuff, but very strong. The other comments are pretty accurate, the title track, Why Love and If It Aint Worth Fighting For are the best tunes. All I know is that the disc was going for quite a bit of cash until the rerelease so enjoy! The disc was so rare that Tony Martin himself did not own it! Buy the disc, Tony sings and plays guitar, and he is one of the last great rock vocalists. Guest musicians include the who's who of British rock royalty. Brian May, Cozy Powell, Neil Murray and more.

Tony Shines Alone, 23 July 2004

Why a guy like Tony Martin who can sing circles around most (metal) singers can't find a lasting gig is beyond me. This guy has a great set of pipes and his albums with Sabbath were classic. Here, Tony shares the spotlight with no one, and he proves his worth. For a long time, this recording was as rare as it gets, so best to grab it while you can. A killer companion to this album is Our Cross, Our Sins by Rondinelli featuring Tony on vocals. Buy them both, and you'll be satisfied.

I Got this disk i think 2 Years, ago i still listening this CD, there are great songs on this disk .. the Remake of Sabbath song called Jerusalem is almost great as the original version of the Tyr Album .. the Hot spots in this disk are ...
the Ballad if There's a Heaven, Great song, great Vocal Performance by Mr Martin, Why Love and Title Song ..
Recommend for the fans that like the Sabbath CD's with Tony Martin on vocals .. this CD is more soft than the sabbath CD's but worth a listen ...
