Notes

  • The remastering work for this disc is the same work done for the 2002 “Symptom of the Universe” package, and the 2004 “Black Box” set.
  • This was released in US/North America only.   This is because it was from the original Warner Brothers contract, and that covers only US & North America.  Everywhere else is the old Vertigo (now Universal/Sanctuary) deal.
  • The version of “Iron Man” on this compilation is not the original studio album length song.  It has been edited to be shorter.  This was done due to space considerations on the disc.
  • This was released to capitalize on the publicity of Black Sabbath going into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame around this time.
  • NOTE: The “2006” in the page title is my own nomenclature.  That is not part of the official name, I did that to differentiate this release from the 2009 “Greatest Hits” release.
