 Interactive Review
His solo album from the early 90's was wonderfully melodic and showcased another side to the heavy rock frontman.
This is album number 2 for Italian guitarist Dario Mollo with UK singer Tony Martin.
A mighty vocal effort from Martin and some fine shredding and riffing from Mollo puts this up there with the best heavy albums of 2002.

Tony Martin cut a solo album, 1992's 'Back Where I Belong' for Polydor Records, unreleased in Britain, while BLACK SABBATH reunited with vocalist Ronnie James Dio for their 'Dehumanizer' album.
Martin's solo opus boasted contributions from SAXON and GTR drummer Nigel Glockler, ex-WHITESNAKE and BLACK SABBATH bassist Neil Murray, QUEEN guitarist BRIAN MAY, bassist Lawrence Cottle, who sessioned on BLACK SABBATH's 'Headless Cross' album, and BLACK SABBATH keyboard player Geoff Nicholls.
Whilst Sykes later went with a completely different band unit, one of Martin's tracks 'Valley Of The Kings' emerged on the BLUE MURDER debut.

 Black Sabbath Online: Tony Martin Fan Interview - Aug 2002
Y’see, It was the filler album that got the band out of the label deal, rid of the singer, and into the reunion.
He sang on 5 studio albums, and one live album during his tenure in the band, and has his own strong fan base of support amongst the Sabbath fans.
It doesn’t mean that the other singers are or weren’t as good as me. It was just a version of the band that did those songs, and did them bloody well!!

 Review: Black Sabbath - The Eternal Idol
This is my favorite track on the album.
Ancient warrior is mostly about a powerful warrior and hopes that the warrior will remember the singer.
The title track sort of reflects the album cover, though the song more talks about God and politicians and the like instead of a woman and a man lying with each other.

 Headless Cross & Tyr - Bowl of Flakes
Martin is a close second, however, and one of the most underrated and unappreciated vocalists in metal.
But Tony Martin is rather bad live, he sings the songs differently never taking the high notes really.
i still think tony martin's vocal melodies were better than dio's while he was in sabbath.

Martin’s voice lacks any menace whatsoever, and whenever he tries to sound tough, scary or soulful, it stops the song in its tracks.
I’m hard-pressed to think of another singer who was more ill-suited to a band’s sound.
Martin has a raspy, opera-man voice that he probably thought made him sound like Bruce Dickinson, but in fact it more closely resembled Michael Bolton.

 Kathy's Zak Starkey Site: Zak on Tony Martin's Back Where You Belong CD
Tony Martin played all the instruments on the demo version of his album, but sticks to vocals and guitar for the final product, which saw release in the spring of 1992 in the UK, although I have only seen copies printed in Germany.
2) The "Tony Martin" on the original DISC is in the same metallic copper color as the cover, and the blue print has a slight metallic quality.
He also had evolved into one of their main song writers, composing all of the song lyrics on "Tyr" and "Forbidden".

I had just made it as #2 singer in a list for Billboard, and he sent me a nice letter telling me how pleased he was for my success.
Harry was a wonderful, funny man. He loved everybody, he wasn’t conceited, a happy-go-lucky man, and he loved to make people laugh.
I was supposed to sing “Let’s Face the Music and Dance,” but I was told I wasn’t going to sing in that picture because Fred Astaire did all the singing.

Martin has a very high voice so it surprises me that he would say that singing high was an issue.
Which I think it was a good choice to not put out an album together (cuz Martins voice is kind of different for their sound) I would really be curious to hear what it would sound like.
Anyone who's listened to Martin since 1995 knows he doesn't like to hit the high stuff much anymore..

Although their current, self-titled album features their classic frontman Messiah Marcolin, there was a point when he wasn't in the band, and the other members approached Tony Martin.
According to a recent interview in Metal Hammer, a demo was recorded, but nothing came of this because Marcolin rejoined the group.
He is too good to play in such a boring band.
