Background information über 'Born Again (Deluxe Expanded Edition)'

When Black Sabbath unleashed "Born Again" in 1983, they were entering uncharted territory with former Deep Purple vocalist Ian Gillan behind the mic. This deluxe expanded edition captures one of metal's most controversial yet fascinating chapters, presenting the original album alongside a treasure trove of rare material that showcases the band's experimental edge during this tumultuous period. The album itself stands as a testament to Sabbath's willingness to push boundaries, featuring the crushing opener "Trashed" and the epic title track that demonstrated how the band could evolve while maintaining their signature heaviness.

The second disc transforms this release into an essential historical document, featuring the legendary BBC Friday Rock Show performance from Reading Festival 1983. These live recordings reveal the raw power of this short-lived lineup, with Gillan's soaring vocals breathing new life into classics like "War Pigs" and "Iron Man". The inclusion of "The Fallen" and an extended version of "Stonehenge" provides deeper insight into the creative process behind what many consider Sabbath's most underrated album, making this expanded edition a must-have for anyone seeking to understand the full scope of the band's legacy.

For fans of: Deep Purple, Rainbow, Dio, Judas Priest, and Iron Maiden
