O projeto Emerald Sabbath, comandado por Michael Suilleabhain, lançará um tributo ao Black Sabbath, chamado “Ninth Star”, no dia 15 de fevereiro de 2019. O álbum contará com participações de diversos nomes ligados à história da banda e seus respectivos integrantes, como:
* Adam Wakeman (Black Sabbath)
* Bev Bevan (Black Sabbath, ELO)
* Neil Murray (Black Sabbath, Whitesnake)
* Terry Chimes (Black Sabbath, The Clash)
* Laurence Cottle (Black Sabbath, The Alan Parsons Project)
* Ron Keel (Black Sabbath, Keel)
* Vinny Appice (Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell)
* Dave Walker (Black Sabbath, Fleetwood Mac)
* Bobby Rondinelli (Black Sabbath, Rainbow)
* Tony Martin (Black Sabbath, Headless Cross)
* Rudy Sarzo (Black Sabbath, Whitesnake)
* The English Chamber Choir
Haverá, ainda, a colaboração de produtores e artistas gráficos que trabalharam com o Sabbath no passado, como os produtores Will Malone e Mike Lewis (“Sabotage”, “Technical Ecstasy”) e os designers gráficos Richard Manning e Colin Elgie (“Technical Ecstasy”) e Hugh Gilmour (“Born Again”).
A ideia de Suilleabhain com o projeto é regravar músicas dos Black Sabbath com o maior número possível de ex-integrantes da banda. Ele convidou, ainda, um quarteto de cordas para complementar as gravações.
