The ultimate sounding bootleg of the Ozzy Osbourne era of Black Sabbath.  This is an A+ rated show that is taken from a soundboard recording on 6th August 1975 at Asbury Park, New Jersey, USA.

Disc 1:    1. Intro / Supertzar / Killing Yourself To Live         2. Hole In The Sky    3. Snowblind         4. Symptom Of The Universe         5. War Pigs         6. Megalomania         7. Sabbra Cadabra          8. Jam - Guitar Solo     9. Jam - Drum Solo    10. Supernaut    11. Iron Man

Disc 2:    1. Guitar Solo             2. Black Sabbath             3. Spiral Architect        4. Embrymo         5. Children Of The Grave            6. Paranoid

(also included are so-called Earth Jams - which don't sound like an early Black Sabbath to me)

A good audience recording from the UK leg of the Sabotage tour.  This has to be fully reviewed and graded.

Lund, Sweden 1977 - A superb quality recording, still to be fully reviewed and graded.

A great show from the Heaven And Hell tour, taken from an A rated soundboard recording.  This show is Toyko, Japan,  18th November 1980.

1. Intro / Supertzar               2. War Pigs             3. Neon Knights            4. N.I.B.              5. Children Of The Sea                6. Sweet Leaf               7. Lady Evil              8. Black Sabbath             9. Heaven And Hell          10. Iron Man

Finally the release of the long vaulted songs from Born Again that dont suffer the terrible mix that was officially released.  Beefier sound backed up by a cracking "new" song, the previously unreleased The Fallen.  Also Stonehenge is in its fuller length and Iommi's lead work appears more often.  An A rated sound quality demo.

Possibly the best sounding Ian Gillan fronted Black Sabbath recording, this A rated soundboard was taken at Worchester, USA on 11/04/83 (I'll sort out the date format of this shortly)

1. Children Of The Grave              2. Hot Line              3. War Pigs            4. Iron Man             5. Zero The Hero              6. Heaven And Hell            7. Guitar Solo             8. Digital Bitch             9. Black Sabbath              10. Smoke On The Water           11. Paranoid

Before Tony Iommi released what was to be his first solo project, the demo's he worked on had a great singer called Jeff Fenholt.  Different lyrics and song titles, but practically the same set of songs that finally appeared on the Glenn Hughes fronted Black Sabbath album - The Seventh Star.

1. Star Of India (Seventh Star )             2. Take My Heart (No Stranger To Love )            3. Eye Of The Storm (Turn To Stone )          4. Love On The Line (Heart Like A Wheel  )     5. Star Of India #2          6. Chance Of Love (Danger Zone )            7. Take My Heart #2           8. Eye Of The Storm #2          9. Star Of India #3          Tracks 10-12, 14-16 are rehearsal jams          13. The Thrill Is Gone (Lita Ford)

The demo's are rated as a B quality recording.

Despite the heavy turn-over in band personnel, Black Sabbath created superb albums through-out and this is the demo's of the excellent Tony Martin album - The Eternal Idol. However this time it's sung by Ray Gillen (Badlands) and also features some live tracks from his period of replacing Glenn Hughes.

1. The Shining          2. Ancient Warrior          3. Hard Life To Love          4. Glory Ride         5. Born To Lose          6. Nightmare          7. Lost Forever          8. Eternal Idol           9. Danger Zone          10. War Pigs          11. Heart Like A Wheel          12. Symptom Of The Universe          13. Sweet Leaf         14. Neon Knights

This is an A rated recording, and is the version that includes Iommi's guitar solos on the Eternal Idol sessions.

The Eternal Idol tour, while short did provide us with a great insight into how good Tony Martin was as new singer for Black Sabbath.  This is a great A rated show.  The show is taken from the concert at Bremen, Germany, 25th November 1987.

1. Supertzar           2. Neon Knights           3. Children Of The Sea           4. War Pigs              5. Born To Lose              6. Black Sabbath             7. Glory Ride             8. Heaven And Hell             9. Guitar Solo             10. Heaven And Hell (Reprise)           11. Children Of The Grave            12. The Shining         13. Paranoid.

Possibly the best set-list that Sabbath have ever compiled into one show.  This audience recording I rate at B- and hopefully a better soundboard will surface eventually, but this is a must have for the huge and varied list of songs played on the first night of the Tyr tour.

Disc 1:

1. Intro       2. Anno Mundi       3. Neon Knights       4.  Headless Cross        5. When Death Calls       6. War pigs        7. The Shining         8. Bass Solo        9. Heart Like A Wheel        10. Guitar Solo         11. The Lawmaker        12. The Battle Of Tyr         13. The Sabbath Stones          14. Drum solo

Disc 2:

1. Odin's Court        2. The Sign Of The Southern Cross         3. Feels Good To Me       4.  Iron Man        5. Children Of The Grave        6.  Black Sabbath         7. Guitar Solo         8. Die Young      9. Heaven And Hell          10. Paranoid

While Cozy Powell was still drumming for Black Sabbath, Geezer Butler returned and brought Ronnie James Dio back to sing.  This set of demo's is the work carried out before Dio joined them in the rehearsal studio.  It forms the bones of what was to become the immense Dehumanizer album in 1992.

1. Computer God (Take 1)        2. Letters From Earth (Take 1 & 2)       3-5 . Unknown Song #1 (Takes 1-4)                 6. Apache                  7. Unknown Song #2          8. Whistling          9-11. Computer God (Take 2-4)

I rate this demo as a B quality recording.

A shame that the Dio reunion tour only lasted for an album, as they are a great version of Sabbath as the comeback album proved.  This is a superb A rated soundboard recording of Boston, 9th August 1992.

Disc 1:

1. Mob Rules             2. Computer God           3. Children Of The Sea          4. Time Machine          5. War Pigs           6. I           7. Die Young          8. Die Young

Disc 2:

1. Black Sabbath         2. Master Of Reality          3. After All (The Dead)         4. Iron Man         5. Heaven And Hell          6. Neon Knights          7. Paranoid

A highly rated A+ soundboard.  This is one of the best sounding bootlegs available for Sabbath.  This recording was made at Lund, Sweden on 18th October 1995.

Disc 1:    1. Intro       2. Children Of The Grave        3. Neon Knights        4. The Shining          5. The Wizard         6. Kiss Of Death           7. Headless Cross         8. Guitar Solo / Rusty Angels        9. Bass Solo / When Death Calls         10. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

Disc 2:   1. Can't Get Close Enough           2. Drum Solo           3. War Pigs         4. Mob Rules           5. Black Sabbath           6. Heaven And Hell         7. Iron Man         8. Paranoid

Through 1996 Iommi was planning on releasing this solo album, but as it was leaked to the internet and the Ozzy reunion was around the corner it never received it's official release and was shelved.  This is a high A quality set of demo's that re-unites Tony with Glenn Hughes and correctly names the session as Eighth Star as it is a fine follow up to the 1985 Black Sabbath album.

1. Not The Same             2. I'm Gone             3. Real World           4. Don't You Tell Me           5. I'll Be Fine             6. From Another World            7. Through The Rain             8. Shakin' My Wings (Glenn Hughes only)               9. No Stranger To Love (Video Edit)

I believe this recording is from a charity gig and not an Ozzfest date, but it's special as it has the first recording of the only new Black Sabbath song (not counting the 2 Reunion test tunes) called Scary Dreams.  This C rated show is from 22 May 2001 in Birmingham - home town of Black Sabbath.

1. N.I.B.        2. Snowblind        3. Under The Sun        4. Fairies Wear Boots        5. Cornucopia        6. Scary Dreams        7. War Pigs        8. Iron Man        9. Into The Void        10. Black Sabbath         11. Supernaut / Paranoid          12. Children Of The Grave
