Description
Black Sabbath – Live At Last – Compact Disc
Despite its wide distribution and success (it peaked at No. 5 on the UK Albums Chart), the album was released without the permission or knowledge of the band, and is thus regarded in some quarters as an unofficial bootleg live album. The album was, however, released legally by the band’s former manager Patrick Meehan who owned the rights to the recording. The album was re-released with the approval of the band on 27 September 2010.
The live album consists of 1973 concert recordings the band intended to use for a live album, but was shelved after being unhappy with the recording. Tracks 1-5 were recorded at the Hardrock in Manchester, England on March 11, 1973. Tracks 6-9 were recorded at the Rainbow Theatre in London, England, on March 16, 1973.
Live at Last is a live album by the British heavy metal band Black Sabbath, released in 1980. Black Sabbath is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of heavy metal music, and their live performances have played a significant role in the development of the genre.
