Best Of Musikladen: Black Sabbath

Superb musicanship and artistry come blazing through in these rare and exciting performances of artists and groups of the '60s, '70s and '80s.These are the international stars that were part of the televised monthly music show Beat Club and MusikLaden.

Filmed in Germany at the television studios of Radio Bremen, MusikLaden (originally known as Beat Club) became a TV classic not only for the fans but also for the artists who took part.There was no time limitation on song length so artists were able to perform live concert versions of their most popular hit songs.

In 1970, Black Sabbath made two appearances on the Beat Club/MusikLaden television series.With their original line-up featuring Tony Iommi on guitar, Terry "Geezer" Butler on bass, Bill Ward on drums and Ozzie Osborne belting out the vocals, these rare appearances highlight the enormous energy projected by this popular hard rock band.
