Album Description: Deluxe 5-CD slipcase boxed set collects Black Sabbath’s complete Dio-fronted catalog: Heaven And Hell, Mob Rules, Live Evil (2 CDs), and Dehumanizer. Each title was recently remastered for the first time ever and features extensive liner notes including new band interviews. Heaven And Hell (1980) is regarded as one of Sabbath’s all-time best with its anthem tracks 'Neon Knights', 'Die Young' and the epic title track. Mob Rule's (’81) was the first Sabbath LP to feature Appice on drums (replacing Bill Ward), delivering high octane classics like 'Falling Off The Edge Of The World', 'Turn Up The Night' and 'The Sign Of The Southern Cross'. Live Evil, the group’s 1982 double-live set, is an in-concert masterpiece and a testament to the raw power of Sabbath’s Dio, Iommi, Butler, and Appice lineup on fourteen epic tracks. Dehumanizer (’92).

Rating: - THe Heaven and Hell remaster is worth it
The Heaven And Hell CD remaster is very good. Bill Ward's drums were buried in the original, but here they are sounding great. Geezer's bass lines, although present on the original, are sounding much better on this release. It was nice to have the other releases on something other than record or tape, but I really couldn't say that they were as much of an improvement as Heaven and Hell.
Rating: - An Improvement Over the earlier versions on CD
I finally got my copy of Black Sabbath's The Rules Of Hell Box Set, the Dio Era Albums remastered, and I must say I was impressed. The sound quality was quite better than the copies I currently own. The Mob Rules sounded much cleaner and not so low sounding, even Live Evil sounded better, its not perfect,but it did sound much better than before especially on N.I.B, my other copy sounded muffed and almost unable to listen to. This new remaster sounded better than before, in some parts it sounds a bit low but it doesn't take away from enjoying the sound of a rare early Dio era Sabbath show. Heaven & Hell was totally mind blowing, it sounded so crisp and powerful it felt like I was listening it for the 1st time back in 1980. Not much of a change for Dehumanizer,but it does sound like the bass is deeper and more powerful than before. The liner notes were nicely done, its too bad there was no lyrics included,but the ...

Rating: - It's like I'm living in a Time Machine
I love this cd set, and I have been listening to it nonstop for the last 3 days, I'll listen to a cd with shuffle on, and work all day, pop in another when I feel like it, they never really get old.
This is a great set, and yes, the remasters are fantastic.
I'm not the type who listens to live cds. I find them annoying, and not good to listen to (in terms of enjoying the actual music).
The live cd set here, (cd3) Live Evil, sounds amazing, you can hear every chord, every place the drummer hits, and it just sounds amazing, you have to hear it to believe it.
I'm glad I bought this, and I'm sure this will be getting one serious workout in my car.
I cant wait for their new Heaven & Hell set, whenever it comes out.
I wish there were some extras, but I'm very satisfied with very high quality audio, and the nice packaging.
