Description

Black Sabbath ? "The Eternal Idol"  Vertigo ? VERH 51 UK 1st pressing Vinyl, LP, with a lyric inner sleeve, released in 1987.
The vinyl appears to have been very lightly played and is in great condition. It plays through on my record player without any hop, skip, or jump. The sleeve, similarly, shows minimal signs of wear. The spine is intact and completely legible. The printed inner is also in excellent condition, no writing or tears. Matrix / Runout (etched): VERH 51-A Matrix / Runout (etched): VERH 51 B1
"The Eternal Idol" is Black Sabbath's thirteenth studio album, released on November 23, 1987. It is the first Black Sabbath album to feature vocalist Tony Martin. It spent six weeks on the Billboard 200 chart, peaking at 168 and was also the last full album of new material by Black Sabbath to be released by Warner Bros. Records (in North America).
The album cover was intended to feature a picture of an Auguste Rodin sculpture from 1889 – also called "The Eternal Idol"; however, the album cover actually features two naked models covered in paint and positioned to resemble the piece of art because permission to photograph the actual sculpture could not be secured. The paint had toxic effects and the models had to go straight to hospital at the end of the photo shoot. Despite the sleeve credits, which cites Dave Spitz as bass player, all bass parts were completed by Bob Daisley, and Eric Singer completed all drum parts. The percussion credit to Bev Bevan relates to a few cymbal overdubs on "Scarlet Pimpernel".
