The traditional masterpiece official video is reprinted. The official video was shot at the “Irvine performance on June 23, 1982.” Yes, this is the only multi-camera professional shot "SPEAK OF THE DEVIL" during Brad Gilles' tenure. Although it is a very famous traditional video, just to be sure, this video is completely different from the live album “SPEAK OF THE DEVIL”. The LP version was a special show with only BLACK SABBATH numbers, but the video version is a regular concert of “DIARY OF A MADMAN TOUR”. As with the Randy era, the focus is on solo songs, and you can enjoy plenty of blood versions of the "BLIZZARD OF OZZ" and "DIARY OF A MADMAN" numbers. In order to get an idea of the circumstances, let's first look back at the schedule of 1982, which was a turbulent year. ・January 1st - March 18th: North America #1 (44 performances)《Randy passed away on March 19th → Bernie Thome participates》 ・April 1st - 10th: North America #2a (7 performances)《Brazil De Gils participation》・April 13th-28th: North America #2b (51 performances) ←★Here★・July 9th-15th: Japan (5 performances)・August 1st-8th: North America # 3 (3 performances) 《Don Airey leaves》・September 26th + 27th: North America #4 (2 performances) ←LP version《Pete Way/Lindsay Bridgewater participation》・December 10th-20th: UK (7 performances)《 Brad & Pete leaving → Jake & Don Costa joining》 This is the whole story of 1982. After Randy's death, Bernie Thome served as a pinch hitter for only seven performances, and then Brad joined him. He served as the official guitarist until Jake joined at the end of the year. Names such as Michael Schenker, George Lynch, and John Sykes were also mentioned to replace Randy, but only Bernie and Brad actually performed the show. The LP version “SPEAK OF THE DEVIL” was a special performance in September, but the Irvine performance of this work was the 49th performance of “North America #3” three months earlier. The timing was right before their legendary first visit to Japan for three performances. The show was officially filmed and released only in Japan as the video version “SPEAK OF THE DEVIL”. After that, it was officially released on DVD, but it was also discontinued. Now it's starting to get a premium. This work is a reprint of such traditional footage. As a matter of fact, even when it was made into an official DVD, there were some cuts and sound gaps, but this work is the best version with a maximum length of 78 minutes. This work is still a masterpiece. What's most impressive is the collection of famous songs filled with arming techniques. It is more modern than Randy, but also different from the scratchy Jake, with a unique undulation that is smooth yet sharp. It's not just arming and playing around, but it's cool because he understands the idea of the song properly and interjects it tastefully. Guitarists after Zack have tried to pay homage to the "legendary Randy" and be faithful to the original, but Brad is different. Because they are from the same generation, their interpretations are bold, and because they are talented, they are more than eccentric. If Brad had remained in the Ozzy band, what kind of masterpiece would he have left behind? ... It is also a show that makes you feel like that. And even more than that is the show itself. This video is Ozzy's first solo video work, and you can fully enjoy the brave appearance of the early 1980s when he was a "heavy metal preacher" with JUDAS PRIEST. I appreciate the overdubbed vocals, but the gothic set is full of mood, with the old-fashioned rendition of "Mr. Crowley" drawing letters and bats with laser beams, and "Goodbye To Romance" featuring a hanging dwarf that would be impossible to do today. Also really vintage. At that time, NWOBHM was in full bloom, but it was none other than PRIEST and Ozzy who conveyed the intense, evil, new music "HEAVY METAL" in an easy-to-understand manner. It wasn't until the following year's US Festival that they truly entered the mainstream world, and it was undoubtedly "DIARY OF A MADMAN TOUR" that laid the groundwork for that. It was because this tour was so shocking that LA metal began to sprout and thrash metal blossomed. This is a valuable official video that allows you to witness the scene with multiple cameras. Whether he wanted it or not, Prince of Darkness became the ``heavy metal evangelist'' and became known as an icon. This is a masterpiece where you can enjoy not only Brad Gilles' virtuosity, but also the show that changed the world. This is a book that will tell you at a glance why Ozzy is the godfather of metal. A historical video work like this should be easily available to anyone at any time. A reprint release for that purpose. Live at Irvine Meadows Amphitheater, Irvine, CA, USA 23rd June 1982 PRO-SHOT 1.
