High Quality 180g Vinyl Reissue!
Cut From Original Analog Tapes by Ron McMaster at Capitol Mastering!!
The Original Black Sabbath Line-Up: Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler & Bill Ward! Includes "Never Say Die", "A Hard Road" & "Junior's Eyes"!
The 8th studio album by Black Sabbath was their final album to feature lead vocalist Ozzy Osbourne before his departure from the band in 1979.
"After going their separate ways for a brief period following the emotionally taxing and drug-infested Technical Ecstasy tour, Black Sabbath and singer Ozzy Osbourne reconciled long enough to record 1978's Never Say Die! -- an album whose varied but often unfocused songs perfectly reflected the band's uneasy state of affairs at the time... (the album features) the stunningly successful oddity that was "Air Dance." Arguably the most experimental song in Black Sabbath's entire canon, this uncharacteristically mild-mannered and effortlessly evocative ballad saw Tony Iommi's normally bullish guitar giving way to simply mesmerizing piano flourishes performed by leading session keyboardist Don Airey." - allmusic.com
