Black Sabbath are celebrating the 50th anniversary of their seminal 1970 album Paranoid with a new vinyl box set.
Black Sabbath, whose classic lineup included singer Ozzy Osbourne, guitarist Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward and bassist Geezer Butler are widely accepted as one of the most influential trailblazers of heavy metal. After announcing its arrival with its self-titled debut in early 1970, the band returned later that year with Paranoid. The album topped the U.K. chart and went on to sell more than 4 million copies in the U.S.
The set includes the original album, a rare 1974 quadraphonic mix, three albums covering two 1970 concerts, a hardbound book featuring interviews with band members, limited photos, a poster and a replica of the band’s Paranoid 1970-1971 tour book.
