Black Sabbath

In December 1997, Black Sabbath delivered a powerful performance of "Electric Funeral" at the NEC Arena in Birmingham, marking a significant point in their career. This recording comes from the album "Reunion," which was a pivotal release, as it brought the original lineup of Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward back together after years of separation. The album not only featured live tracks but also included new studio recordings, rekindling the band’s legacy and resonating deeply with fans. Interestingly, their return to Birmingham, their hometown, added an electrifying atmosphere to the concert, making it a special moment for both the band and the local audience. This live rendition encapsulates the raw energy that Black Sabbath is renowned for, as they reinvigorated their classic sound for a generation of both loyal fans and new listeners.
