Available with Vinyl records London. Deluxe Vinyl Records 7 Inch Vinyl Black Sabbath BLACK SABBATH EXPANDS SABOTAGESuper Deluxe Edition Of The Band’s Sixth Album Features Newly Remastered Original Plus A Complete Live Show Recorded During 1975 TourBlack Sabbath was embroiled in a protracted legal battle with its former manager in 1975 when the band started recording its sixth studio album, Sabotage. The group felt sabotaged at every turn – hence the album’s title – but that feeling helped fuel the intensity of the new music they were making. In spite of the distractions, the band created one of the most dynamic – and underappreciated – albums of its legendary career.BMG pays tribute to the patron saints of heavy metal with a collection that includes a newly remastered version of the original album along with a complete live show recorded during the band’s 1975 tour. SABOTAGE SUPER DELUXE EDITION will be available as a 4CD set and a 4LP set that includes the same music on 180gram vinyl plus a bonus 7inch with the single edit for “Am I Going Insane Radio” and “Hole In The Sky” on the flipside, with artwork replicating the very rare Japanese release of the single.Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward recorded Sabotage in London and Brussels and coproduced the album with Mike Butcher. The eight songs were released first in the U.S. in July 1975, and then in the U.K. that September. Certified gold in America and Silver in the UK, Sabotage earned positive reviews for hardhitting tracks like “Hole In The Sky” and “Symptom Of The Universe,” as well as more experimental music like “Supertzar,” which featured harp, Mellotron, and the English Chamber Choir.SABOTAGE SUPER DELUXE EDITION introduces 16 live tracks 13 of which are previously unreleased that were recorded in 1975 during the quartet’s U.S. tour for the album. The performances include songs that span the group’s career, from the title track to its 1970 debut Black Sabbath to “Spiral Architect” and “Sabbra Cadabra” from its previous album, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 1973. Sabotage is represented as well with live takes of “Hole In The Sky” and “Megalomania.”The music is accompanied by indepth liner notes that tell the story of the album through quotes from band members and the music media along with rare photos and press clippings from the era. Also included in the package is a 1975 Madison Square Garden replica concert book and Sabotage 1975 Tour colour poster.
