Description

Black Sabbath – Feels Good To Me (7" Promo Single)

Artist: Black Sabbath

Title: Feels Good To Me / Paranoid (Live)

Format: 7" Vinyl Promo

Original Release: 1990

Label: I.R.S. (International Record Syndicate)

The "Deep Dive" Details:

  • The "Tony Martin Era" Rarity: This single comes from the Tyr album. While Sabbath's 70s singles are common, their 1990-era vinyl is significantly rarer because the band’s popularity was in a niche "cult" phase and the industry was moving to CD. A Promo copy is a top-tier find for Sabbath completionists.

  • The UK "Jukebox" Promo (EIRS 148): The UK promo often features a large center hole for jukebox use and comes in a generic I.R.S. company sleeve. However, if your copy has a silver injection label with "PROMOTIONAL COPY" printed on it, it is the coveted radio station version.

  • The Australian "Sample" Variant: If you have the Australian release (via EMI/I.R.S.), look for a red or white "Sample Record" sticker or a factory overprint on the label. Australian Sabbath promos from the early 90s were produced in incredibly low numbers—often fewer than 200–300 copies—making them much rarer than the UK equivalents.

  • The "Paranoid (Live)" B-Side: The B-side is a live version of "Paranoid" featuring the Tony Martin-era lineup (with Cozy Powell on drums). This specific live recording was a "bonus" for this single and isn't found on the Tyr album itself. Collectors of the Cozy Powell era specifically hunt this 7" for his unique drum flourishes on a Sabbath classic.

  • The Matrix "Townhouse" Stamp: Check the runout groove for "TOWNHOUSE." This indicates it was mastered at the legendary Townhouse Studios in London. Townhouse masters from the late 80s/early 90s are famous for their high-output, "hot" levels, which make this version of the power ballad "Feels Good To Me" sound significantly punchier than the digital CD version.
