Black Sabbath Odin's Court / Valhalla

Odin's Court and Valhalla from Black Sabbath's 1990 album, Tyr. Tony Iommi on guitar, Tony Martin on vocals, Neil Murray on Bass, and Cozy Powell on drums.

[@urbangrefvennilsson8566]

Tony Martin did a great job on the vocal.. And Cozy Powell on the drums. Headless Cross and Tyr are 2 real great albums... 🙂👍

[@randyfiore1311]

Tony Martin era was great.

Absolutely

[@jasperdeboer3257]

Everything They said. So true.

[@samyrosber9265]

Fuck yea for me better than dio

[@matt1980]

yes! he was great tobad alot of folks wanted to focus on ozzy

[@DrDommm]

When these cds came out noone bought them, I did and I love the Tony Martin era of Sabbath, its great to see that this era is getting the respect and love it deserves.

[@davemieze9021]

Here I am 3 years later. Still have not heard anything better.

- Geoffrey James Nicholls Rest in Peace 🎹😭🙏 - Colin "Cozy Powell" Trevor Flooks Rip 🎼😭🙏

[@garysharkey9940]

one of the greatest singers of all time

[@josephbiondi8427]

Gary Sharkey agreed. Terribly underrated, too. Makes me sad. This man has one of the best voices imaginable and so few recognize that.

[@TacianoCanassa82]

Totally Agreed!

[@paulroger4481]

true

[@ElizondoAbelardo]

Criminally underrated.

[@donnyrankin8330]

Tony is a wonderful vocalist and human being. Of all Sabbath’s Vox since Ozzy, Dio and Tony’s voices were best suited for the music. Ray, RIP, ( not Ian) Gillian was probably the only other notable vocalist Sabbath had.

[@robertswhelan]

My favorite of the Tony Martin era albums! Saw them live and he killed it on all vocals.

[@dmgx]

I'm a huge Tony Iommi and Cozy Powell fan 🤘😎

[@DefconMaster]

Man, what a great song. The Tony Martin-era Sabbath stuff really is criminally underrated.

[@darentaylor9169]

i have the entire era of black sabbath with tony martin on vocals. tony martin never got the credit he deserved. i never cared for ozzy osbourne in black sabbath !

This album was my entire teenage years. I know every inflection and tone and intention of the vocal line. Call me crazy.

[@Stargazer1974]

Me too, i know all the drum beats, vocal lines, bass lines, guitar lines since i was 17 (50 now). Even i dont play any instrument. Such a great album!!

Riding the cold winds of VALHALLA on a sledgehammer drum solo! 🥁❄️

[@bernardoa.garciah.2316]

Funny how these Tony Martin era albums were not very appreciated when they came out, but today we hold them in such high regard. Really great albums indeed; TYR could have followed Heaven And Hell or Mob Rules easily.

[@randallbrooks5787]

For me it was the greatest Sabbath album since "Mob Rules". I had tears of joy streaming down my face as I listened to the cassette when it came out back in 1990, because after wading through the previous three albums (which I love and appreciate fully now), I was so overjoyed that Black Sabbath was BACK, and sounded like a legendary band again. :)

Tony Martin . A great singer

[@gregwilkinson5185]

Tony Martin's lead vocals are the best thing came out of Black Sabbath!

[@Reptile61]

period! man!

[@oliverafton1444]

Tbh... he just sounds like he's trying to be Dio... but he can't and... i dunno, i don't think i like him that much cause of how similar he is to Dio, which is kinda shameless

[@mrlawnmowerdeth3298]

sounds nothing like Dio. Did more good album than dio did with sabbath.@@oliverafton1444

[@IMajst3RI]

[@00bulka]

I loved this when I was a teenager...the whole album was brilliant

[@nadirjimenezlopez9808]

tony martin🤩

[@jonathanwpressman]

From a technical standpoint, the greatest Sabbath lineup. As much as I love Dehumanizer, Iommi should have ran with this lineup. This album is gold and arguably the best since Heaven and Hell.

[@DarksaberForce]

Tony Iommi would have continued with Martin, Cozy and Neil but a reunion with either Dio or Ozzy was worth a ton of money that Sabbath at the time was unfortunately wasn't getting because their current label IRS Records was doing a poor job of marketing them in America. I always wondered if Warner Bros kept Sabbath for Headless Cross and TYR then they would've had much better album sales.

[@RoboBonanza31]

OH SHIT, THIS IS NASTY! Tony Martin era was INSANE for Sabbath, there are so many powerfull songs and riffs!

[@christschinwon]

One of the most tastefull rock intros ever. I know a lot of people didn't site TYR as real Sabbath (Ozzy slagged this album to no end) but it worked for me! Tony's voice is outstanding

[@PaulyV56]

Oz wishes he could phrase and carry a melody like Tony.

[@Grandmastergav86]

Look at Ozzy's work post Sabbath, look at Sabbath's work post Ozzy...They outgrew him.

[@frankramos3378]

christschinwon A lot of people were who were Sabbath plans till this day do not recognize the Tony Martin era as a great arrow music but to me Tony Martin was the best singer of Black Sabbath ever had

[@warzIbanez]

Ridiculous. I'd say that the 13 album had done what the Seventh Star album already had done decades prior. And what else did Ozzy do with the band? "Retirement" tours. And yet albums like this aren't re-released.

[@CaptainChard]

@@warzIbanez I love Ozzy, but the guy can't sing. He's a performer. This outstrips anything he can do

[@davemieze9021]

The vocals......nobody will ever do this better.

[@TheNikmetallica]

Such a great song!!! One of the best with Tony Martin on vocals!

[@konigeurichderwestgoten4460]

Brings memories of Earth’s previous incarnations when ‘mythical’ creatures roamed... I can see the jagged blue mountains of Nordheim out of Robert E Howard’s stories, where the golden-haired Aesir and crimson Vanir carry on their ancient feud, a bright lone star shimmering above the tallest peak. Roiling clouds of the colors red, dark blue, and purple full of sparks. Tundras and dense forests of birch and spruce blanketed in snow and bathed in the silver light of the moon... The last time I saw Wotan, he was chasing a ship of dark elves across the sea. They had stolen something, but I do not know what.

[@ChasingDragons420]

Definitely two of my favourite Sabbath songs!

[@rangsangsrgyas]

As you walk alone the night surrounds you like a shroud The dreams you had were once of love and being proud Misty horizons block your vision of the world But the raven's eyes will show you all you need to know The land you loved is now so barren and so cold The name of God rings out so high in your soul This time is masters will lead us by the sword And should we fait them all prevails in Odin's court Leading us on, to the land of Eternity Riding the cold cold winds of Valhalla The Kingdom of Odin is the Kingdom of Gods Where only souls of the brave may rest in peace But someone among them had the skill of deceit And raised the hand that would open the road to Hell When the winds of Valhalla run cold Be sure that the blood will start to flow When the winds of Valhalla run cold Valhalla The ring has been broken and a soul must be saved Among the bravest of men, who rides to Hell The longships are sailing and the chariots ride And yes the anger of Thor will serve you well Raise your hands Reach and Valhalla will save your soul Raise your eyes And Odin will lead us on They say that history repeats itself Upon the year of the seventh Century Well nobody knows no you never can tell So you'd better run now and hide away

[@Ghost-zo2zm]
