One of the most misunderstood and most important bands in the history of music is Black Sabbath. To those on the outside their music is loud, annoying and Satan worshipping dribble. To those who 'get it', Black Sabbath provided a soundtrack, not only for the disenfranchised of the early 1970's and the dreamers of the 1980's, but for pure music lovers... those who wanted more from their music.

Produktbeschreibung
One of the most misunderstood and most important bands in the history of music is Black Sabbath. To those on the outside their music is loud, annoying and Satan worshipping dribble. To those who 'get it', Black Sabbath provided a soundtrack, not only for the disenfranchised of the early 1970's and the dreamers of the 1980's, but for pure music lovers... those who wanted more from their music. BLACK SABBATH - THE VINYL TESTAMENT is a deep history into Black Sabbath, from their first album until THE END! Every album is looked at, the stories leading into it are told and each song is reviewed. Written by music journalist/podcaster/historian Matt (Matman) Herring, THE VINYL TESTAMENT is an intimate and complete look into a half century of bone crushing riffs, thought provoking lyrics and the story f a band that had to fight for every bit of respect... and are still fighting for. Like his other music books, UFO - YOUR FAVORITE BANDS FAVORITE BAND and ASIA - TIME AND TIME AGAIN, Herring has collected his thoughts and words about another band that means so much to him. "When I write about a band, I am completely honest. If I don't like something I will say it. But I will always preface by reminding the reader this is my opinion and it doesn't make it bad." As a lover of history, Herring writes his book as a history lesson for his favorite bands, wanting to tell a story, teach something new and hopefully rekindle a love for his subjects. "One of the big things I got out of putting this book together was how Black Sabbath never had the support they should have, from management and their record labels. Instead of protecting them, the band was kept on the road, in the studio and high enough not to ask the questions thy should have been asking." The book also dives into the pre and post careers of Black Sabbath members including the story about Jimi Bell, currently the guitarist for Autograph and House Of Lords. In 1987, Bell auditioned for Ozzy Osbourne and made the top two and would later join the Geezer Butler Band until that project fell apart. BLACK SABBBTH - THE VINYL TESTAMENT is a full color 230+ page book that features an incredible cover by Andrew Edge, paying homage to The Beatles, a band Black Sabbath and Herring love! Inside are awesome fan pictures, taken at concerts, meet and greets and also features rarities from fan collections, including posters, bootlegs and autographed albums and CDs.

Autorenporträt
Writer Matt (Matman) Herring has been passionate about music his entire life, a gift given to him by his parents, who always had music playing in the house he grew up in. His older sister, Meredith, helped to cultivate his tastes by providing a great collection of albums to listen to and borrow when she wasn't home. Herring became a singer in a band, an on-air disc jockey and now, for the past 15 years, a podcaster and author with his love of music still dominating everything he does. His last two music biographies, UFO - YOUR FAVORITE BAND'S FAVORITE BAND and ASIA - TIME AND TIME AGAIN were well received by the fans as well as the bands themselves, all expressing an appreciation of his personal approach and conversational writing style. Matt lives on the side of a lake in Massachusettes with his wife Amy, daughters Rebekah and Samantha, three cats, a lot of music and a crap-ton of comic books. Matt can be heard on The Power Chords Podcast, 53:5 The Official Stryper Podcast, The Monarch Theatre Podcast and The Radio Eclectic!
