Black Sabbath Live in Osnabrück Performance of Headless Cross and More Songs

Venue: Stadthalle Location: Osnabrück, Lower Saxony, Germany Date: October 22, 1990

In the fall of 1990, Black Sabbath was riding high on the wave of their album 'Headless Cross,' which had just been released earlier that year. The live recording from Osnabrück on October 22, captures the band during a dynamic period of their career, showcasing both classics like 'Iron Man' and tracks from 'Headless Cross,' such as the title song itself. This era marked a significant phase for Sabbath, as they had welcomed vocalist Tony Martin into the fold, infusing new life into their sound. Interestingly, the concert features the impressive talents of guitarist Tony Iommi, whose signature riffs are a highlight, along with Neil Murray on bass. The energy of the crowd, combined with the raw power of their performance, reflects a band that was not just surviving but thriving, even as they transitioned through various lineups and stylistic shifts.
