  10. Thank you for the share. I eagerly look forward to what you did with the Montreux show, as I too found it unlistenable and always reached for the Belgian one.

  11. Thanks for your hard work on this. If the Sabbath camp put half as much effort into their projects, we might actually have a few interesting releases. The lack of quality archival releases by this band baffles me. Thanks again!

  36. Thanks so much for the Montreaux remix. This sounds like an a cappella performance on the retail release. I can hear the band now!

    ReplyDelete
  37. I pitched the live tunes from the Paranoid set because they all had problems, especially Montreaux. You've made them not just listenable but highly enjoyable. Thank you!

  46. Wanted to thank you for this one again Prof, been diving back into their catalogue given the events of the past week and especially enjoying their early bootlegs so this compilation was much appreciated!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Thank you very much

    ReplyDelete
  48. Love the Beat Club material. Those versions of "Paranoid", "Blue Suede Shoes" and the coda to "Iron Man" pretty much set the stage for thrash metal, while this version of "Black Sabbath" is probably one of their heaviest, threatening to outdo even the stuff from Master Of Reality.

    ReplyDelete
  49. I guess you heard on the official Beat Club Youtube channel they just uploaded a previously unseen performance "N.I.B.". I hope they will upload more footage, any possibility of this will be added to this collection?

    ReplyDelete
  50. Prof, You know we all dig your own upgrades !! Perfect for a rainy day ... Cheers !

  55. Brilliant, many thanks for all your hard work

  56. And the treats just keep coming. Awesome. I wonder if there is enough material for a Cheap Trick rarities comp up to 1979. Would love the complete Gary Ladinsky sessions. I love those songs but they sound flat to me. Love the bridge in "Oh Boy".

    ReplyDelete
  57. Well maybe not flat. Like all of their early stuff aside from the debut I ask why isn't this more in my face and heavy. Studio decisions I imagine.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Many thanks for this.

    ReplyDelete
  59. ah yes a nice little collection of an era remembered well, thanks 🎵

  67. The Brussel concert runs one half tone slower than Montreux.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I did notice the tone differences among the sets but I decided to leave things as-is. These guys probably just tuned their instruments by ear. PS

      Delete
    2. But all other shows run in correct tune.... so i assume the recording ran too slow.

      Delete
    3. No, they don't. Of all recordings here that could be off-speed, Beatclub and Brussels are by far the least likely to be in the wrong speed, since they come from pro-film. Feel free to disagree, but no correction is coming.

  68. Many thanks for these upgrades, cheers
