“Speak Of The Devil” was filmed at Irvine Meadows, California in 1982. The show was part of the delayed continuation of the “Diary Of A Madman” tour following the tragic death of Randy Rhoads in March ’82 in a flying accident during the early part of the tour. The show features guitarist Brad Gillis who was brought in to replace Randy Rhoads. The concert is a perfect snapshot of Ozzy Osbourne’s live performances in the eighties with dramatic staging and masses of energy with a setlist based around his first two solo albums and a few Black Sabbath classics. Ozzy has always been one of heavy metal’s great frontmen and, despite the difficult circumstances, this show captures him at his absolute best.
Audio has been digitally restored and remastered and is now available in DTS and Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound for the first time. This DVD / Blu Ray contains rare footage of the band featuring Brad Gillis and includes the classics “Mr Crowley”, “Over The Mountain”, “Crazy Train”, “Flying High Again”, “Iron Man”, “Paranoid”, “Goodbye To Romance” and many more.
Available on DVD and Blu Ray from June 29.
