Black Sabbath

In September 1978, Black Sabbath delivered a powerful performance at Pittsburgh's Civic Arena, showcasing their live prowess during a pivotal time in their career. They had recently released 'Never Say Die!' in 1978, which would come to be their final studio album with the original lineup featuring Ozzy Osbourne before his departure. This period was marked by turbulence and a quest for reinvention within the band. The setlist from the concert reflects a mix of classic tracks like 'Black Sabbath' and newer material, highlighting their evolution while staying true to their heavy metal roots. Fans might find it intriguing that despite the underlying tensions and challenges they faced, Black Sabbath was still able to pack venues and deliver resonant performances that echoed their legendary status in rock history.
