Black Sabbath Performance of Unknown Song at Corn Exchange, Cambridge
In the late '80s and early '90s, Black Sabbath was enjoying a resurgence with their music, particularly through their live performances. By the time of their show at the Cambridge Corn Exchange on September 5, 1990, the band had just released 'Tyr' in 1989, an album that signaled a return to their heavy, epic sound with a strong thematic focus on fantasy and mythology. This period showcased the band’s ability to evolve while retaining their metal roots. Interestingly, this live recording features the lineup that included Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and vocalist Tony Martin, who brought a fresh energy to the group. Fans cherish this concert not just for the powerful renditions of classic tracks, but also for the palpable connection between the band and their audience.
