1982 Speak of the Devil Concert... finally an official DVD .

[devstorm]

10 years ago I bought a Portuguese, or Brazilian DVD version of this legendary concert. It was most likely mastered from the Japanese Laserdisc edition that was out in the late 80's. I was happy to have an upgrade from my VHS copy but was a little disappointed by the poor quality of the DVD features itself. Well it's finally being released officially in the U.S.

Ozzy's vocals were all re-recorded in the studio for this so he's in exceptional voice on this particular concert. The details indicate it's been given a full audio remix as well which I'm even more excited about.

No it's not a Randy Rhoads concert. Yes it's a Brad Gillis concert. But its the best representation of Ozzy's best (And my favorite) stage set, and gives a great example of how powerful the Sarzo, Alderidge, Airey backing band were.

I'm only slightly let down by no mention of any bonus content, but one can always hope. Release date is July 17.

Here's the official press release:

So, is this the MTV concert that has been floating around bootleg land for years now? Or is this an entirely different show?
