ive heard it was called "forever" on the us release and "centre of eternity" on the uk release also the two lp's had subtley different artwork and one of the songs on the album was different i think spiders sneeked on to one of the releases and slow down got the chop

and yeah, that solo can't stand up anywhere near to tommy's solo.
That Youtube video was from the Dortmund festival, West Germany in December 1983, The song title 'Forever' was used on the 'Bark at the Moon' album but for some reason Ozzy called it 'Journey to the centre of eterninty' at most of the live shows I think a case of too many drugs not enough brain cells!

They aired about 6 tracks from the Dortmund show on German TV as well as releasing the entire Salt Lake city show from 84 on video.

Cool. Thanks! I'll check that out and see if there's more on YT from that show. Maybe post them here.

Yeah, and you're right, rice_pudding. I've owned both copies of bark at the moon, pretty ridiculous if you ask me, i think Slow Down is a better song than Spiders.

Yeah, I'd describe the US version as red/yellow and fuzzy. The UK version is blue/yellow and fuzzy. And I think they're also in opposite corners.

speaking of mad solos, i've heard an uber crazy version of Bark played live. The tempo is notched up from about 140bpm (or whatever it is in the studio) to about 170bpm. Its utterly mad, so mad its stupid

the thing is Jake set the pace for that performance playing the opening riff before the rest of the band come in, what was he thinking .

the song was played as an encore i think, so my guess is jake really, really needed to use the bathroom.

Muahahaha. That totally cracked me up. Luv your sense of humour!
