Black Sabbath - The Wizard Live Performance at Orpheum Theater Malta 1995
In the summer of 1995, Black Sabbath was riding high on the release of their thirteenth studio album, "Forbidden," which came out just months before this electrifying live performance at the Orpheum Theatre in Malta. This concert, held on August 25, was part of their world tour supporting that album, featuring the band's signature blend of heavy metal and dark, brooding sound. Interestingly, it marked the return of original drummer Bill Ward and included fan favorites alongside newer material. The live recording captures a moment steeped in nostalgia, as the band showcased both their legendary past and their effort to reinvent themselves for a new decade. For fans, it was a chance to witness classics unfold in a fresh light, and for the band, an opportunity to reconnect with their roots while exploring new musical territories.
