BLACK SABBATH – The Ultimate Collection [2CD Digipak remastered] (2017)
Remastered by Andy Pearce (Rock Candy Records headquarters), the 2CD Digipak “The Ultimate Collection” is BLACK SABBATH‘s definitive ‘best of’ ever.
Curated in conjunction with the band, the 31-track collection features the band’s classic songs, including “Paranoid”, “Iron Man”, “War Pigs”, “N.I.B.” and “The Wizard” as well as choice cuts from their classic albums and is the definitive accompaniment for all Black Sabbath fans as well as those with a love of classic, seminal hard rock / metal.
Black Sabbath is arguably the most influential heavy metal band of all time. The band helped to create the genre with groundbreaking releases such as ‘Paranoid’, an album that Rolling Stone said “changed music forever.” Time magazine called Paranoid “the birthplace of heavy metal.”
In 2017, Black Sabbath remains one of the most prominent acts in music. Performing for more than 45 years, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006, has received two Grammy awards, 13 platinum and six gold albums in the U.S., and has sold more than 75 million records worldwide.
“The Ultimate Collection” is an excellent compendium of Black Sabbath’s most celebrated era, that’s being the line-up of Ozzy Osbourne (lead vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass) and Bill Ward (drums).
This isn’t the first Black Sabbath compilation. In fact it’s at least their eleventh.
But it’s the best ever released, from the excellent packaging to the awesome remastered sound.
