Black Sabbath Expand ‘Sabotage’
Black Sabbath’s next expanded edition will be the 1975 album ‘Sabotage’.
‘Sabotage’ was the sixth Black Sabbath album. (This reissue comes after the recent expanded ‘Volume 4’. There is no obvious order to the reissues).
The title ‘Sabotage’ was used because at the time the band was being sued by a former manager. “It was probably the only album ever made with lawyers in the studio,” drummer Bill Ward said. Ozzy Osbourne has said that “writs were being delivered to us at the mixing desk”.
The song ‘Am I Going Insane (Radio)’ was thought to be a radio edit by the band said the term ‘Radio’ is rhythming slang for ‘mental’ (ie: Radio-Rental).
