Black Sabbath : Sabotage Album CD Remaster and Super Deluxe Box Set Review and a RANT

- This video was originally going to simply review the Sabotage Super Deluxe Edition Box Set but then I thought it would be good to look back at the original vinyl album and then the CD Remasters from 1996 and 2009.
In the video, I show you the booklets and the inside of the box set and give an overview of the album itself. I also recommend which version I feel is the best. My answer may surprise some of you.
I also give an honest opinion of what I think of the box set which is really a lost opportunity.

Hi great review. I was really going to take a hard pass on this set basically because the sound quality on my original Canadian Warner bros press and UK original Nems press are really fantastic. I also have two vinyl bootlegs of the very same live show which sound really great. As for the 7" single I have one that came with the BMG boxset Supersonic years. So I was really gonna pass this one by. I ended up with the cd version first and I was actually quite surprised by the sound of the remastering. But honestly I was more happy to have the tour program and book. Then I got the Vinyl copy of the boxset. I couldn't believe the difference in the quality of the over all packaging. The album sleeves to the booklets and and tour program and man they did a terrific replica of the 7" single. I was pleasantly surprised by the vinyl copy. So if anyone is reading these comments and maybe considering this boxset, the vinyl version is far superior to the cd version
Geezer once said that they never thought about album covers they just thought it was a place to put your album
Thank you, I will not be buying this. Sadly.
In agreeance Phil, sabbath needs to lift its game when it comes to giving fans value for money.
Hi Phil. Have rewatched this and agree that Sabotage is by far the worse of the box set releases, and time has not changed my mind. To call a 7inch single as part of a four disc box set is unforgivable. The live stuff as you say is terrible. The actual albumof course fantastic but this sounds nowhere near the 2009 release in my opinion.
Wow we are in the same wagon I got tons and tons of Black Sabbath vinyl,cd! Box sets !!!! We spend a lot of $$$ lots of time looking and searching for what???? Ask tony can I have your autograph !!!! Nop they don’t have the time !!!!! So F !!!!! that guy !!!!! Ozzy 2 !!!!!!!
I thought they were mysterious and very cool that’s the only way I can think of the describe the album cover. I actually would stare at each ones garb especially Ozzys and it out him on a different level Than us.oh is it just me or isn’t Geezers arm bent in front but hanging down from the. A k photo?
I've been known to call this my fave album of all time by anybody - great tour of it, Phil!
I Still Have All Albums CD's & Cassettes Of Black Sabbath & OZZY Osbourne Too.Worth Buying. Masterpiece Song & Voices Forever.
Hello Mr. Aston. What a review!! Well done, in my opinion, very honest and very easy to follow. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Keep on rocking.
I will here during the premier. This is quite a long one for me so I hope you like it. Thank you for watching and your support. Phil
Curently hunting all these sets own. Im enjoying your honest reviews. I as rally looking for these to be definitive editions of the albums, but it doesnt look like thas the case. This one's only cost me £27 so it's not too bad, part of the collection.
I have the 96 and 2009 don't own a turntable at the moment so the 96 will have to do Thanks for the review ❤
Great review and attention to detail Phil. I always favour the sound of VOL 4 on my vinyl from the seventies. Compression being the curse of some CD reproductions. They just don’t capture what Sabbath were about at that time. The thick , heavy primordial mix that comes through on Sabbath vinyl.
Great video. Thanks for sharing your insight. I bought Sabotage when it first came out in September 1975. After a few listens, it was my favorite album. Almost 50 years later it's still my favorite album. BTW - I also own numerous Sabotage remix versions and the behemoth Super Deluxe Box - both CD and vinyl.
There was a japanese 45 with Am I Going Insane (Radio) bw Hole In The Sky released in 1975. Released on Vertigo SFL-2060
Great review, great explanation! I love Black Sabbath. Here in Brazil they are so many fans! And "Sabbotage" is a great álbum. Thanks!👏👏👏
IT's one of the greatest ALBUM COVERS I have ever seen.
Thanks Phil… Right on for your superb overall choice with… selecting the vinyl record of Black Sabbath’s Sabotage ! ❤😎🎸
Great, honest review. I bought the vinyl version. So hard to say what sounds best, unless you have all different versions to compare. These deluxe box sets should be the best of everything, especially for their price point. I just hope that effort is being made by these bands.
