Black Sabbath/Tokyo,Japan 1980

From the first Japan tour accompanying the release of “Heaven And Hell” in 1980, the fourth and final day in Tokyo, the performance at Nakano Sunplaza on November 18th, is used as a soundboard sound source leaked from the mixing desk by those involved. Recorded. Although it is not complete, it is the best version of the desk recording track recorded for FM radio on-air at the time, with the best clear sound ever, and the problem of noise has been alleviated. On this day, Iommi was not feeling well, so he ended “Heaven & Hell” midway through and played a medley of “Iron Man.” And, unique to this period, Ronnie’s divine vocals, which I think are the best in his career, are still a masterpiece. 01.
