Black Sabbath's Technical Ecstasy re-visited.

I never felt like I had a problem with Technical Ecstasy. It just kind of existed. I've never owned the CD, but I did have a vinyl copy I bought for a quarter a long time ago. I hadn't heard the album in, at least, 8 or 9 years. I listened to it today, twice in a row.

This record is sooooo good!

I know it doesn't get the same attention as the preceding records, which I understand. But it really is excellent. And "Back Street Kids" is as brilliant an opener as any other Sabbath album opener. I'm really hooked on this one right now. I hope there's a deluxe edition CD available.

I think it's a decent album but is missing that certain something to make it even better. The opener (Back Street Kids) and closer (Dirty Women) are the best two tracks.

Same thing happened to me last year, probably my most played Sabbath album in the last year (including 13) A truly great Sabbath record. Favorite tracks are probably You Won't Change Me & She's Gone I really love the melancholy vibe to these two songs, but the whole record is fantastic.

I thought it was boring. Then again, I don't own it, and I haven't heard it in a long time.

I've always enjoyed this album. It is definitely a little weaker than other Sabbath releases, but I'll take weaker Sabbath over a lot of other stuff any day of the week.
