CD Reviews
Great Devilish Sounds

"(the score is for the CD, not the Delivery practices I criticize)
Totally Loved the Music the guys created in this album. All contribute and deliver a great all-round sound. Wether
on 5.1 sound system or on an ipod, this album plays well, and the guitar overlay that Tony delivers is awesome. It
extends his warmer sound that is clearer in the Live at Radio City Music Hall DVD.
What really made me furious was how Amazon messed up the delivery on this one. The first one I received as a gift
and it was SHATTERED on two sides and cracked on the others and back. The second copy which was sent was sent to me in the same way, so the jewel case was cracked on one side. This is part of a collectors edition, and it is getting a bit too consistent that one division of Amazon can't package a CD/-DVD pack; The returns section sent both packages, and I know it is part of the division since the same lot sent a second package on a different order, and I got the same results. This was an item paid for, so Amazon, if you don't listen, then I think you will lose
customers. Its clear that at least some of your staff do not care, some of your outsourced staff ??"
Iommi, Dio and Butler are heavy magician musicians

"The great returns of Dio Sabbath Spirit. Heavy, melodical and phenomenal Iommi riffs, Dio voices interpretations and excepcional Butler bass line. I recommend for Sabbath fans!!!"
