This is a great DVD for fans of Black Sabbath. There is a lot of good footage here, and the songs are complete, which is a plus. The interviews with Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler are cool too, there's no interviews with Ozzy or Bill Ward, but still this is a highly enjoyable DVD.
Fantastic version of War Pigs is included with gnarly drums! Good info about early years; some humor as well. Tony Iommi's hugely inflential guitar work crunches throughout, and Ozzy's uniqueness shines.
Great footage of Black Sabbath. The sound quality is not the best. Its even worse than bootleg videos. It is a shame because if not it would have been an awsome video. Also it does not play on regular DVD player. Only on MPG 4 capable DVD players.
My son will love it for Christmas ! He's a Black Sabbath fan and collects their products and this is something I don't think he even knows about. With this being new and still shrink wrapped is a big bonus
