Technical Ecstasy by Black Sabbath, limited edition, remastered, new mix, 90 mins of unreleased outtakes, alt mixes, live tracks from Ozzy, Tony, Geezer and Bill plus extensive book, tour program and poster.

1967-1974 is a 10CD box set that celebrates 50 years since the eponymous debut album of British blues/rock band Ten Years After. This collection gathers long-players from the Chrysalis and Deram eras and includes eight studio albums, one live album and a bonus disc of never before heard recordings from 1972 called The Cap Ferrat Sessions, which has been newly mixed by Chris Kimsey. All the albums have been remastered from the original quarter-inch production master tapes. <br/><br/>The unreleased - The Cap Ferrat Sessions - exists thanks to Alvin Lee's widow, who discovered a box of recordings in their house in Spain. Chris Kimsey recorded and engineered the original recordings during The Rock N Roll Music To The World album sessions. Kimsey: These re-discovered recordings were not rough demos, not rehearsals, but completed masters that did not make the album due to the time limitations of vinyl at the time. <br/><br/>This is a revised package of the previously available, but sold out, book version comes in a clamshell case with a perfect bound booklet featuring extensive sleeve notes by Chris Welch and interviews with the remaining band members, Alvin Lee's family, as well as additional recording notes by Kimsey. The 10CDs are housed in individual album CD wallets.

Returning to a heavier, more aggressive sound, in 1975 Black Sabbath delivered their sixth classic album in a row. Taking almost a year to complete, Sabotage is Black Sabbath at their best and possibly their most musically experimental. Brought up to date for 2021 is the original album newly remastered as well as a full concert recorded on the 1975 Sabotage Tour of North America. In addition to a selection of tracks from Sabotage, this live album includes the Black Sabbath classics War Pigs, Iron Man and Paranoid. Also included in this super deluxe edition is a replica of the rare Japanese single 'Am I Going Insane (Radio)', which completes the audio package for this fan-friendly deep dive into the classic Black Sabbath album, Sabotage.<br/><br/>CD box set includes:<br/>- Original album newly remastered<br/>- Complete live concert from the 1975 Sabotage Tour of North America <br/>- Am I Going Insane (Radio) Japanese replica CD single<br/>- 1975 Madison Square Garden replica concert book<br/>- 60-page book with photos, artwork and liner notes<br/>Sabotage 1975 Tour colour poster

The deluxe formats will also include Lost & Found: Rarities and Still Life: Wembley Stadium 1982.<br/><br/>The Lost & Found disc contains no fewer than nine songs from the period of the album's original release, newly completed and enhanced with additional vocals and guitar by the band. Among these, 'Living In The Heart Of Love' is a quintessential Stones rock workout with all of the group on top form, complete with urgent guitar licks and fine piano detail.<br/> <br/>Other highlights of Lost & Found include a killer version of 'Shame, Shame, Shame', first recorded in 1963 by one of the band's blues heroes, Jimmy Reed; their reading of Dobie Gray's soul gem 'Drift Away'; and a fascinating reggae-tinged version of 'Start Me Up'.<br/><br/>Still Life: Wembley Stadium 1982 is an unmissable memento of the band's London show in June of that year on the Tattoo You tour. The mighty 26-track set is packed with Stones mega-hits, including an opening 'Under My Thumb' and all-time greats such as 'Let's Spend The Night Together', 'Honky Tonk Women' and 'Brown Sugar'.<br/> <br/>The Wembley show has covers of the Temptations' 'Just My Imagination,' Eddie Cochran's 'Twenty Flight Rock,' the Miracles' 'Going To A Go Go' and early rock 'n' roller the Big Bopper's 'Chantilly Lace.' It also features early live workouts for tracks from the then-new Tattoo You such as 'Start Me Up', 'Neighbours', 'Little T&A' and 'Hang Fire'.

2021 REMASTERED ALBUM + BONUS CONTENT PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED<br/><br/>- Original album from 1972 remastered.<br/>- Outtakes (newly mixed by Steven Wilson).<br/>- Alternative takes, false-starts and studio dialogue.<br/>- Live in the UK 1973, a complete show from the Vol. 4 tour.<br/>- 40-page hardback book <br/>- A band poster<br/><br/>Vol. 4 was Black Sabbath's fourth genre-defining classic in a row and ranks as one of the group's most successful and popular records. It was the first album to have all the trappings of rock n roll success from the ambitious recording process to the LA parties and on the road excess. The world tour captured here demonstrates the band at the height of their powers and is a monumental testament to four working class lads who spawned the heavy metal genre and thousands of bands to come.
