No Singer? No Problem! Black Sabbath

You have to be retarded to say anyone but Ozzy was the best singer for Sabbath. Even the obscure songs with Ozzy are good.....shit Dio????? Fuck that saw Ozzy on the reunion and Dio previously and Sabbath wasn't the same without Ozzy.

This commentary is quite off base with regard to Sabbath & RJD. The 5 or so albums Sabbath did with RJD were all of a high quality, and distinctive from the Oz man. The tours with RJD, over a period of many years, were also quite successful. Sabbath & RJD represents a different "phase" of the band- perhaps not as successful ($$) as under Ozzy, but their albums still sold quite well, and the fans accepted Ronnie, as shown by the numbers associated with their tours.

what do idiots write this stuff? Ronnie James Dio was great for sabbath,do some research man!!!

Okay, let's compare the quality of Ozzy and Dio:

Ozzy: sings with riff, big song: Iron Man.

Dio: sings across riff, big song: The Mob Rules.

Guess which one flows and sounds a HELL of a lot better?

Went down in flames? I love Ozzy, don't get me wrong. Sabbath just wasn't Sabbath without him. But to say that Ronnie James Dio helped ruin Sabbath? Dude, come on! Dio has one of the best voices in metal, second only to rob Halford and Bruce Dickinson and not even really second; more like a three-way tie. He invented the "horns" that we all throw up at a concert (called a moloch, I think he said and it is actually the evil eye or warding OFF the evil eye, depending on how you use it) and he is one of the best-loved metal icons EVER. Get off it, man. He may not be a replacement for Ozzy but he wasn't SUPPOSED to be. RJD does his own thing and he does it very well.

Black sabbaths best cd was born again with Ian Gillen

Exactly guys. Ozzy was great; but Dio and the boys created a different sound; the ultimate metal lineup post 1975.

Dio - one of the best voices in metal! The first handful of Sabbath records with Ozzy were excellent, but to say they went down in flames with Ronnie James? Total horsecrap!! They might of sounded different but they rocked just as f'n hard. I don't think half of these boneheads at Spinner know what good music is anyhow. Think I'll go put on The Mob Rules and bang my head for awhile. Later!!!

dio was and is the best and born again with gillan is great

Absolutely agree. In fact, Black Sabbath's reunion failed to produce a new studio album, because of $hOzzy's lack of ability or committment to the band. Now with Dio Black Sabbath is reborn as Heaven and Hell, had a successful tour last year and is recording a new album. The recording Heaven and Hell: Live at Radio City Music Hall and the collection Black Sabbath: The Dio Years has new material with Dio all metal fans should hear. And keep an eye out for the new album in '08 or early '09. Long live Black Sab ... uh, Heaven and Hell!
