Black Sabbath To Release Expanded Vol. 4 Box Set

Black Sabbath will have a massive 4CD or 5LP edition of ‘Black Sabbath Vol. 4’ to be released in February.

The new edition comes 18 months ahead of the 50th anniversary of the album, released initially on 25 September 1972.

‘Black Sabbath Vol. 4’ was the first Black Sabbath album produced by the band. It was recorded in Los Angeles in 1972. The new edition has been remixed by Stephen Wilson. 

As part of the new package a live concert from 1973 will also be included in the box set.

‘Black Sabbath Vol. 4’ features the track ‘Changes’, a song the band stopped performing years ago because Ozzy Osbourne could not reach the notes anymore.

The song ‘Supernaut’ on the album became the inspiration for the name of the Australian band ‘Supernaut’ later in the decade.

Since the early 1990s, Deacon has shunned the spotlight, retiring quietly after Freddie Mercury’s death in 1991. But now, years later, he has quietly resurfaced, lending his signature alongside bandmates Roger Taylor and Brian May on a charity auction item, signalling, perhaps, that even the most private of souls can still make their mark in unexpected ways.
