📌November/December 1982
Black Sabbath
📀 Live Evil
#HeavyMetal
Ozzy Osbourne
📀 Speak Of The Devil
#HeavyMetal
40 years Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne from Birmingham, #UK released 2 live albums at the same time.
The 2 albums have much in common:
1- #BlackSabbath publishing deal with their previous management had expired early that year; it meant that by re-recording Sabbath 1970s songs all songwriters would benefit from the publishing royalties: and both Sabbath and Ozzy were desperately in need of money!
2- Both albums led to the 2 band's breakup, read here the reasons why:
👉 Speak Of The Devil, the album nobody wanted to record
👉 Live Evil, mutual accusations Black Sabbath / R.J. Dio
In Live Evil:
#TonyIommi – guitar
#GeezerButler – bass
#RonnieJamesDio – vocals
#VinnyAppice – drums
#GeoffNicholls – keyboards
In Speak Of The Devil:
#OzzyOsbourne - vocals, harmonica
#BradGillis - guitar
#RudySarzo - bass
#TommyAldridge - drums
