Tarja Virmakari from Metal Shock Finland spoke with former BLACK SABBATH singer Tony Martin recently about a number of topics. A few excerpts from the chat follow:
Metal Shock Finland: For many Black Sabbath fans Headless Cross (1989) has been the last masterpiece of the band. What are your memories of that album?
Martin: "VERY exciting… and pleased to be on board as I am sure you can imagine… especially having Cozy Powell on board. All was fine at that point."
Metal Shock Finland: Do you think it’s possible to see a reunion tour with Tony and the other Sabs?
Martin: "At this point I can’t see how…. Sabbath haven’t talked to me in 15 years. All of the albums that I was on was removed from sale completely by them and it would take unbeleivable changes to get it all back together.'
Metal Shock Finland: What do you think about the other Sabbath singers, Osbourne, Hughes, Gillan and Dio?
Martin: "Don’t have any particular issues with any of them.. I know Ian slightly and got on well … I know Glen Hughes quite well and get on well …. only met Dio once and he wasn’t happy at the time, I tried talking to him but he was just unresponsive…. no idea what that was about…. never met any of the others. They all have a place in the history of the band of course."
