Definitive footage from Ozzy Osbourne's reunion BLACK SABBATH's 1999 American tour has arrived urgently from overseas! An amazing high-quality item that takes advantage of the large capacity of the 2-DVD set has been decided to be released! This work, which is edited and reconstructed from multiple excellent audience shots recorded at the Seattle, Washington "Key Arena" performance in the first half of the tour, will be a must-see for all SABBATH fans! With Tony Iommi and Ozzy joining together on the 1997 OZZFEST tour, BLACK SABBATH finally began to reunite with a complete original lineup. In December of the same year, Iommi, Ozzy, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward came together in Birmingham, England, and the live performance was announced as the official work ``REUNION''. Although Bill Ward was unable to participate in the European tour held in 1998 due to sudden illness, the original four members reunited for the US tour booked from the end of 1998 to 1999. . The true BLACK SABBATH's American tour began with a New Year's Eve live performance in Phoenix, Arizona on December 31, 1998 (this event can be enjoyed on the Shades label's ``TOWARDS THE END OF CENTURY''). In this work, you can enjoy the Seattle performance, which is the 7th performance, with special footage skillfully edited from multiple audience shots. As you can see from the track list, this item consists of 88 minutes of live footage, but it is made up of two DVDs. Originally, this video could easily be stored on a single DVD, but this video has excellent image quality that surpasses conventional video materials in many respects, such as excellent color reproduction, screen resolution, and detailed reproducibility. have. It would be easy to fit it onto a single DVD, but then this excellent video would also be compressed. This time, in order for fans to enjoy the original master's excellent footage as it is, we have decided to release it as a special 2-disc set that can record the huge amount of data as is without any compression! The video mainly captures a bird's-eye view of the stage from the second floor seat on the left side of the stage, close to Geezer, and clearly follows Ozzy as he moves from side to side on the stage, and Iommi as he spins his heavy riffs with skill and dignity. I am. The camera is slightly unstable in the “War Pigs” intro part immediately after the live performance, but the image calms down from the time Ozzy starts singing, and you can enjoy the live performance on a stable screen. The screen is of master quality with natural coloring and no smearing. The outline of the player is also very sharp, and its clarity is definitely at the level of a professional shot. Multiple images are cross-faded naturally, and you won't feel any discomfort when switching between screens. The sound is synchronized with the screen without any blurring, so fans should be able to get into the performance without feeling any stress (this is probably due to the creator's knowledge of SABBATH live performances). The video of this work is amazing, but the audio is even more amazing. The powerful performance, which contains more data than a CD, directly conveys the original SABBATH's heavy performance to fans. If you output the sound of this work from the speakers in an excellent playback environment, the excitement of the live venue will instantly shake the air and knock out the listeners! The bass note that Geezer emits in “N.I.B.” is full of volume. ``Fairies Wear Boots'', where Iommi's guitar riff and jazzy phrases swing along with Bill Ward's unique drumming, also gives viewers a taste of the unique rhythm. It has a piercing and direct feel, and can be said to be a major highlight during the live performance. Furthermore, Ozzy is also in great condition on this day, and I am happy to be able to carefully observe his high-tension performance. The way she jumps up and down on stage is very energetic, but I'm also happy to hear that her singing voice comes out quite well, and her vocals on "After Forever" and "Into The Void" are similar to those heard in her official works. Don't miss "Snowblind" and "Dirty Women" at the beginning of Disc 2. The former is Ozzy's magical singing that confuses the listener, and the latter is reminiscent of Ozzy's solo career in the 1980s.The many classics revived with modern sounds have an extraordinary originality even when listened to today. Gives a sense of heaviness. After this, until the encore, a series of famous songs that can't be missed by original SABBATH will be played. From "Black Sabbath", where the smoke in the air creates an eerie feeling to the song, to "Iron Man" and "Children Of The Grave", which in the original composition give the impression of being a pair of two songs, the fans were impressed with their non-stop power. I'll push it over! The 88 minutes until the last encore "Paranoid" is a wave-like attack of tremendous heaviness and excitement. Fans have no choice but to bow down to the majesty of the original SABBATH! This 1999 US tour includes the tour premiere of "TOWARDS THE END OF CENTURY" (Shades), which you can enjoy in high quality in Phoenix, Arizona, full of rare songs, and the second half of the tour with an ultra-powerful stereo soundboard leaked by the people involved. Many excellent materials have been known from the past, including the packaged "BOTTOMLESS PIT" (Import Title). However, it can be said that there has never been an item that allows you to experience such outstanding realism and quality in a video title, and this work will be respected as a classic among all SABBATH enthusiasts in the future. Fans, please don't miss out on the memorial title, which comes with an original menu and has the highest image quality. Live at Key Arena, Seattle, WA.
