### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent! Thanks a million.

Excellent! Thanks a million.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ More precious than gold
*by M***2 on 27 March 2011*

CD1 is the Tony Martin's official version of this really underrated and great record. It has also 2 bonus tracks: one is a demo version of "Black Moon" (later appeared on the following Headless Cross), the other,"Some Kind Of Woman",is a rock song with a strange Van Halen mood. The CD2 is the thing that IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO MISS! Simply because finally it's the only way to listen the divine voice of Ray Gillen(Badlands) flying on Tony Iommi's riffs. This Eternal Idol version gives off a passion that the official one can't have. Try it!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everyone wins
*by U***Y on 11 May 2011*

The mid-to-late 1980's is an often overlooked era in Black Sabbath's long and chequered career, and in addition to 1989's Headless Cross, 1987's The Eternal Idol is probably the band's most underrated album.Die-hards will disagree, of course, but once you get past the impression that no line-up without Ozzy Osbourne should be called Black Sabbath, you will soon discover that there was some pretty good stuff released under the Sabbath name even when Tony Iommi remained the sole original member of the group. Songs such as "The Shining," "Ancient Warrior" and "Eternal Idol" easily beat anything from the dismal Technical Ecstasy and Never Say Die albums, and, frankly, most of the stuff on Sabotage.Long-time Sabbath aficionados already know that prior to the release of The Eternal Idol, vocalist Ray Gillen abruptly left the group, having already nearly completed the album. This led to the hiring of Tony Martin, who re-did all the vocals with very short notice. Up until now, the original Ray Gillen versions have only existed in various bootleg formats, but now finally get an official release on this 2-disc deluxe edition, which features both versions of the album.This release offers some solid evidence of both Gillen's and Martin's undeniable vocal abilities. Comparing the two singers' renditions of the same songs and listening to them back-to-back is great fun. Although the vocal melodies on the different versions of the songs are often very close to one another, both singers have their own style and bring their own flavour to the Sabbath sound.In a way it's a shame that things didn't work out with Ray Gillen, but then again, Tony Martin did a great job and deserves to be on the album. With this re-release, everyone wins.
