Frogtoon Music Album Info: Live At Last
Published: 01 Jan 2011, 23:14
Live At Last Is A Live Album By Black Sabbath. Despite Its Wide Distribution It Was Released Without Any Permission Or Knowledge From The Band And Is Thus Considered "unofficial" In Some Quarters. However The Release Was Legal Albeit Unapproved By The Band As Stated Within Europe And Ads Were Carried In The UK Music Press. In The US It Was Available Only As An Import. The Album Was Included When The Sabbath Albums Were Issued On CD In Europe By Castle Communications In 1986 And Again In Remastered And Repackaged Form In The Label's 1996 Remaster Series. The Vinyl Version And The First CD Issue Feature The Spoken Intro Of 'Will You Welcome... BLACK SABBATH!' Which Oddly Would Be Edited From The Remaster And "Past Lives". It Should Also Be Noted That The Remaster Was Not A Remix And There Is No Apparent Audio Difference Between That And The Original Issues. The Release Was Compiled From Two March 1973 Recordings Made For An Intended Live Album But Being Unhappy With The Results The Band Shelved That Project Indefinitely. However Former Manager Patrick Meehan Arranged The Release In 1980 On The NEMS Label. The Band Eventually Came To Acknowledge The Recording And Released The Whole Album As Part Of The Two Disc Live Compilation Past Lives In 2002. Past Lives Itself Was Re-Released Again In 2010 In A "Deluxe Edition". Live At Last Was Also Released In 2010 As A "Remaster" But What If Anything Has Changed On The 2010 Recordings Is Unknown. The Recording Is Still Noted For Its Early Pre-Album Version Of "Killing Yourself To Live" And The Long "Wicked World" Medley Jam. Live At Last Was Also Significant In That Its Initial Release In 1980 Prompted Black Sabbath To Finally Record Their First Official Live Album 1982's Live Evil With Ronnie James Dio. All Tracks Were Recorded At The Manchester Free Trade Hall In Manchester England On March 11 1973 And The Rainbow Theatre In London England On March 16 1973 It Is Not Known For Definite From Which Concert The Individual Tracks Arose As This Is Not Stated On The Original Release And There Are To Date No Known Bootlegs For Comparison.
