Black Sabbath

In June 1989, when Black Sabbath performed at the Agora in Cleveland, they were riding high on the release of their album 'The Eternal Idol.' This album, which had come out just months before the recording, marked a significant moment in the band's history, as it was their first with vocalist Tony Martin, showcasing a shift in their sound while still holding onto the heavy metal roots that made them legends. The live show features tracks like 'The Headless Cross' and 'Neon Knights,' providing a glimpse into the band's evolving repertoire. Interestingly, the performance also serves as a tribute to Cozy Powell, the iconic drummer who had played with Sabbath during their transitional years, highlighting the emotional depth of the moment. This era revealed both Black Sabbath's adaptability and their unwavering dedication to their craft.
