Black Sabbath

In June 2002, Black Sabbath took to the iconic stage at Buckingham Palace for a memorable performance of 'Paranoid,' featuring Phil Collins on drums. This live rendition was part of the Queen’s Golden Jubilee Concert, celebrating 50 years of Elizabeth II's reign. At this point in their career, Black Sabbath had recently released the album 'Reunion' in 1998, which marked a significant comeback for the band, bringing the original lineup back together for the first time in years. The powerful chemistry between Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, and Geezer Butler during this live performance was palpable, demonstrating the enduring legacy of their heavy metal sound. This event showcased not only their hits but also their reign as pioneers of rock music, further solidifying their status in musical history.
