Black Sabbath Back Catalog to be available digitally

Thanks to Tim over at bravewords for pointing this out to me… I am currently trying to find out whether this means it will be available in the US versions of iTunes and Amazon’s MP3 store, or just their UK counterparts. Given the albums cover from 1970-1987, this is the old European distribution stuff, the […]

The Devil You Know on Roadrunner in Europe

I’ve gotten a lot of emails (nee complaints) from fans in Europe wanting to know what’s going on with distribution of “The Devil You Know”. Amazon UK’s site has had it for sale, but only as an import. I just got word less than 10 minutes before posting this that the deal for Europe has […]
