Black Sabbath

In July 1985, Black Sabbath took the stage at Live Aid, a monumental charity concert, and delivered a powerful performance of 'Iron Man' at Philadelphia's John F. Kennedy Stadium. At this time, the band was riding a wave of nostalgia and resurgence, having released their 'Seven Star' album just a year prior, marking a shift towards a more polished sound with veteran vocalist Tony Martin. Interestingly, this Live Aid appearance featured the original lineup, including Ozzy Osbourne, which came as a surprise to fans and was significant for the band's legacy. The performance caught the eyes—and ears—of a new generation before a global audience, proving just how influential they remained in the world of rock. This moment showcased not only their iconic sound but also highlighted their place in rock history amidst an evolving music scene.
