Black Sabbath launched 5 implausible albums with vocalist Tony Martin between 1987 and 1995. Although you’d by no means realize it as a result of they’re all out of print and never on any digital streaming service.
Rumors of Martin-era reissues began in January 2022, when Martin himself stated he heard there was a box set coming that same year. Then in November 2022, Martin stated he was informed the reissues would be coming in 2023, a sentiment guitarist Tony Iommi echoed in a later interview.
Iommi was then asked about the Martin-era reissues again this year, to which he replied partly: “Yeah, there will be stuff coming. If I say one thing, folks anticipate it there after which. However you’ll be able to’t do it that fast. It’s important to undergo the routine of, like, now we’re on the Dio bundle, after which it’s going to transfer on and transfer on. The thought is, sure, the Tony Martin stuff might be popping out.”
Anyway, Black Sabbath has now introduced a reissue of their 1998 stay album Reunion. The stay album was recorded on December 4 and 5, 1997 on the NEC in Birmingham, England in celebration of Ozzy Osbourne rejoining Black Sabbath proper after Martin had left the band. So we’re getting nearer to the Martin period, I suppose?
The Reunion reissue marks the primary time the album might be obtainable on vinyl and options two Danny Saber remixes of “Psycho Man” and “Promoting My Soul” on Aspect F. Pre-orders for the vinyl are available here.
