Description:

Black Sabbath is one of the leading figures in the heavy metal music scene. Despite numerous changes, Black Sabbath, led by guitarist Tony Iommi, has been active for nearly half a century and continues to exert a great influence on various HM/HR bands. Now, a newly discovered live archive of Black Sabbath is here! The band fired Ozzy Osbourne due to severe alcohol problems and replaced him with former Elf - Rainbow vocalist Ronnie James Dio, and then released the album "Heaven And Hell" in April 1980. The album was received favorably all over the world and sold well, earning a platinum disc in the United States. On April 17, 1980, the band began their "Heaven And Hell Tour" in Germany. The highlight of the tour, a concert in Sydney, Australia on November 27 of the same year, was recorded and broadcast as a special program on an Australian FM station, and this album is a live album using this material. This album is a complete recording of the concert, including the drum solo and encores.The band's Japan tour prior to the Australia tour had been difficult due to leader and guitarist Tony Iommi's poor health, but at the Australia tour, they gave a powerful performance that showed no sign of that, and fans will be moved to tears by this new archive!
