Album of the Day

In the summer of 1976, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward headed to Miami to make TECHNICAL ECSTASY at the famed Criteria Studios. Coming off a world tour where their live performances had evolved to include keyboards and synthesizers, Black Sabbath incorporated these sounds into the new recording. The Warner Bros. collection encompassed a wide range of styles, from the hard charging “Back Street Kids” and ballad “It’s Alright,” to the funky “All Moving Parts (Stand Still)” and progressive “Gypsy.” Now available as a 4-CD or 5-LP set, TECHNICAL ECSTASY: SUPER DELUXE EDITION includes the original album newly remastered, a brand new mix of the album by Steven Wilson, plus previously unreleased outtakes, alternate mixes and live tracks.
