Product Description:
This live concert recording captures the sold-out Radio City Music Hall performance of former Black Sabbath rockers Ronnie James Dio Vinny Appice Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler who reunited under the name Heaven and Hell in 2006.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSIC DVD/LIVE PERFORMANCES UPC: 603497992447 Manufacturer No: 243708

Amazon.com:
Comprised of former members of Black Sabbath, Heaven & Hell grew out of a 2006 reunion of post-Ozzy frontman Ronnie James Dio, guitarist Tony Iommi, bassist Geezer Butler, and drummer Vinny Appice for the purpose of recording new tracks for a Sabbath compilation called The Dio Years. Heaven & Hell then toured, drawing deep from the Dio-era Sabbath catalogue. The masterful Heaven & Hell: Live from Radio City Music Hall is one result of that rekindled partnership, a two-hour, Gothic metal marathon filmed in 2007 before a thrilled New York City audience. Largely comprised of classic Sabbath material, the show unfolds with a deceptive ease. The seasoned bandmates play with graceful concentration even as they plunge into the maw of doomstruck power chords and grinding riffs, the wiry Dio stalking Heaven & Hell's swampy sound like some fusion of a crow and benevolent overlord. At times, it's impossible not to contradict oneself while trying to describe the group's intricate, paradoxical sound: 'Children of the Sea,' for instance, is somehow both a snaking and watery mystery. 'E5150/After All (The Dead)' is equally epic and nonchalant. 'I' is a show-stopping, nightmarish blues that leans toward the anthemic, while 'Falling Off the Edge' is highlighted by a molten rhythm and Dio's taut vocal. This is a fine outing from a historic ensemble. --Tom Keogh

- The fire is still there
It starts a bit slow and Dio has to warm up, but when he does, whatch out. Toni and Geezer are spot on.

- This DVD rocks
I saw this line up of Black Sabbath in 1980 or '81 and had the opportunity to see Heaven and Hell in the same venue almost 30 yrs later but didn't. After reading reviews of the concert and seeing this DVD, which I just bought, I really regret missing the live show.

In the two days since buying the DVD I've watched it in its entirety twice and have dipped into it to see specific songs a number of times. For me, this DVD really cooks. The picture clarity is absolutely incredible as is the sound quality. The performances of the band members are powerful, passionate and energetic without being overly dramatic. Tony and Geezer, in particular, put out awesome performances which were also displays of extremely professional musicianship and stage presence.

In some reviews, people have commented on too many camera angle changes etc but I personally found that there was a good balance. As a ... Read More

Absolutley smoking video! Why cant all bands do this after this long? Oh thats right their all Posers! Ozzy included! Masters of metal is the correct term for this band " Black Sabbath" Forget sharon and ozzy, this is the band that wants to And CAN play metal!!!

- THE REAL DEAL!!!
When I heard about Heaven and Hell putting out a dvd,my first thought was "I hope they don't embarass themselves like so many other bands who regroup after 10-20 years apart,it never sounds as good as the first time around".As unbelievable as it may sound,Heaven and Hell are as good or better on this dvd than when they played the same stuff as Sabbath. Ronnie James Dio's vocals are fantastic and the rest of the band seem to realize this and give excellent performances themselves.This is no"nostalgia act".This band and this concert is as good as anything out there from newer groups.
