‘Technical Ecstasy’, the seventh Black Sabbath album, is now a box set.
Black Sabbath toured the album in America with support act AC/DC. The relationship between the two bands was described as “tense”. Sabbath were quietly disintegrating after a decade of excesses and AC/DC were the new kids on the block.
Sabbath’s Geezer Butler and AC/DC’s Malcolm Young did not get on and it was also a period where at one point Ozzy Osbourne left Black Sabbath, only to be talked back to record one more album.
Osbourne would record one more album ‘Never Say Die’ in 1978 before being fired. He did not make another album with Sabbath until ‘13’ in 2013. ‘13’ then became the last Black Sabbath album. The band officially broke up in 2017.
The ‘Technical Ecstasy’ reissue coincides with the re-release of Ozzy’s solo sixth album ‘No More Tears’ recently for its 30th anniversary.
