Black Sabbath

In July 1987, Black Sabbath delivered a powerful, if incomplete, live performance at the Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium in Athens, Greece. This concert came shortly after the release of their eleventh studio album, "The Eternal Idol," which was launched earlier that year, marking a new chapter for the band under the vocals of Tony Martin. The lineup during this period showcased a different flavor as they experimented with a mix of classic metal tones and fresh influences. Interestingly, the band's evolution during the late '80s was also a time of transition, as they sought to revive their sound while navigating the ups and downs of the music scene. This Athens show captured a blend of nostalgia and innovation, a reflection of where Black Sabbath found themselves—striving for relevance while still paying homage to their iconic roots.
