Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
It’s a good day in the soul when you come across a sound that you should have been intimately aware of from the beginning, but which offers a wide-ranging scope of enjoyment and perspective; and the opportunity to speak wholesomely without previous bias or prejudice.

V, the sign of victory, the symbol of defiance, a representation of the battle won in the face of odds perhaps so large that the triumph is more than success, it is the all-encompassing delight of rejoice made clear.
Joe Bonamassa, Glenn Hughes, Jason Bonham, and Derek Sherinian, by themselves forces to reckoned with, musicians to be lauded, to be praised from extravagant alter to corners of fan filled fields where the blast of their chosen instrument is enjoyed with attentive ear; and yet together, blended, melded and forged to attack the senses with impunity and defend the genres of Blues and Rock with aggression, subtly, and ferocious cool, they are arguably, completely, unbeatable.

There are few artistic jewels that sparkle with such vocal intensity as that which resonates so vibrantly as Marcella Detroit.
Anything of course can be argued in the negative, but for those who were given the opportunity to hear the 1990s be kick started as though putting the foot down on an accelerator made up of industrial lace and with a sweet spot just waiting to be heard as it speeds by comfortably leaving the dust trails thankful for the action and the other users on the road twisting their neck to check out the sublime nature of the single Stay, and the sheer jaw dropping cool of the album 1992s Hormonally Yours by Shakespears Sister, then the argument is moot, there is only a Jewel that requires to be understood, praised, and profoundly enjoyed.

Some barriers are locked in place to keep all but a chosen few from entering what is considered a sacred domain, an area designed to only meet the needs and joy of the insufficient and uncommon, and kept shut on those who will benefit with greater appreciation the beauty they will envisage, be swept away by with what can only be spoken of in calming verse and pictures painted on a canvas of cool divine.

Forever leaves the lips of the poet with the sense of optimism that is never truly captured sincerely in any other study of human existence. We can eulogise and give meaningful declarations on how something profound will live on, how it will be etched in stone long after we have departed this mortal coil of ours, but in truth statues erode, buildings become condemned, governments and nations topple, heroes often fall.

To blaze a trail of your own making can leave you feeling lonely, it can add pressure to your vision to strive to create something that nobody on Earth could imagine, could build, and that loneliness of feeling can be overwhelming, can leave you looking at the bugs that flutter around Streetlights on the highway and wondering if conformity is all that bad; for after all the crowd seems to have more fun being in the realm of illumination.

Such is the presence of Ozzy Osbourne and Ronnie James Dio in the minds of Black Sabbath fans universally that some names are forgotten, almost sideswiped out of existence, and even if it was for a tour, a stop gap in the story as others dropped out before pushing their way back in, they still deserve to be recognised, and whilst Ian Gillan and Glenn Hughes have offered more to the band’s history compared to say David Walker or Ron Keel, what should be not only remembered, but lauded, is the effect that Tony Martin had on the soul of the Godfathers of Heavy Metal.

The power to lucid dream is one that can be magical experience, it can lead to places which you never expected your mind could fathom, it can show glimpses of a reality in which anything is possible, and be an indicator of the path that the universe is asking you to follow, to trust the hallucination and be more in tune with the ethereal rather than the trappings of matter-of-fact, hard nosed entrenched opinions brewed and passed down by dogma and one-world view.

The Heavy Soul that continually finds a way to unburden itself is one to acknowledge the respect that is due.
Those to whom creating the urgency of dedicated calm assurance and refusing to bend a will that would see the soul wither under the strain of surrender, these are the magicians of their craft that give others a reason to feel pleasure, a deep and abiding acknowledgement that deference is due, but at the same time you can relish the opportunity to be front row and centre in the presence of brilliance as that soul releases mayhem and takes your mind out for a ride so elegant that it sees eternity.

There is a reason why many songs that deal with relationships used to sell so well and be high in the popular charts. If you look back throughout the history of the single you can see the proliferation and abundance of songs that had sorrow, undying declarations of love, of regret and touching moments when grieving is summoned from the depths of the soul that is wracked with torment and hope in equal measure.
