Black Sabbath - Technical Ecstasy (Super Deluxe) - 4 CD Box Set
In the summer of 1976, Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward headed to Miami to record Technical Ecstasy at the famed Criteria Studios. The band was coming off a world tour for their previous album, Sabotage, that had found their live performances evolving to include keyboards and synthesizers. These newly incorporated instruments and sounds were then introduced into the recording process on Technical Ecstasy. The new songs encompassed a wide range of styles from the hard charging âBack Street Kidsâ and single ballad âItâs Alright,â to the funky âAll Moving Parts (Stand Still)â and progressive rock âGypsy.â The Deluxe Edition presents a newly remastered version of the eight-track album, along with an entirely new mix of the album created by Steven Wilson using the original analogue tapes.
With eight previously unreleased outtakes and alternative mixes. Among those are different mixes of âYou Wonât Change Meâ and âRock ânâ Roll Doctor,â as well as both outtake and instrumental versions for âSheâs Gone.â The collection concludes with 10 previously unreleased live tracks recorded during the 1976-77 World Tour. The songs touch on different eras of the bandâs history with early tracks like âBlack Sabbathâ, âWar Pigsâ (from Paranoid), âSymptom Of The Universeâ, âSnowblindâ and âChildren Of The Graveâ alongside new songs âGypsyâ and âDirty Women.â
The collection comes with an extensive hardback book featuring artwork, liner notes, rare memorabilia and photos from the era, plus a replica of the 1976-77 world tour concert book and a large colour poster of the iconic Hipgnosis (Storm Thorgerson/Aubrey Powell/Peter Christopherson) futuristic robots image which is perfect for framing.
Black Sabbath embraced change in 1976 when the heavy metal innovators started managing themselves and began exploring different sounds on the bandâs seventh studio album, Technical Ecstasy.
BMG honours this daring album with a collection that includes a newly remastered version of the original, a brand-new mix by Steven Wilson, plus more than 90 minutes of previously unreleased outtakes,
alternative mixes and live tracks. TECHNICAL ECSTASY: SUPER DELUXE EDITION will be available as a 4CD box set and 5LP box set on 180g black vinyl.
