Unofficial live recording compiling the historic April 1970 John Peel Sessions together with Beat Club TV material from the same year, capturing Britain's BLACK SABBATH at the very beginning of their career, when they were still laying the foundations of what would become Heavy Metal. This release serves as a fascinating historical document, showcasing the band only months after the release of its debut album and shortly before the arrival of "Paranoid".
The set includes early and particularly raw versions of songs that would later become timeless classics, performed by the original lineup of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward. With a more direct and less polished sound than the studio recordings, these performances highlight the power, darkness and revolutionary spirit of a band that was about to change the course of heavy music forever. An essential release for collectors and fans of BLACK SABBATH's formative years.
Recommended for fans of: PENTAGRAM, SAINT VITUS, TROUBLE, BLUE CHEER.
