These are images from the May 2017 issue of Eclipsed Rock Magazine. Although I can’t get the actual pages from the magazine, this is the summary given by the magazine:
BLACK SABBATH - From the Swabian Province to the World
It’s done. The live chapter Black Sabbath has been finished since February 4, 2017 with the last concert of “The End Tour” in their hometown Birmingham. One of the first stages of the Doom and Metal pioneers in 1969, even before the first album was released, was Baden-Württemberg. The first concerts in Germany as Black Sabbath took place in the Swabian province. Tony Iommi, Ozzy Osbourne, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward felt so at home there that even when they were already in the charts with their first LP, they returned to the charts at the end of April 1970. We accompany Sabbath on her first years as a tour band and garnish the whole thing with exclusive photos.
The two pages above, translated from German:
“I haven’t yet realized that it really should be over.”
Geezer Butler has yet to process the end of Black Sabbath.
BAS(S)IC INSTINCT
Interview with the Sabbath bassist
“To my shame and sorriness, I can say that I was a complete alcoholic at the time.”
Bill Ward, pictured here onstage at Schorndorf’s Club Manufaktur on December 20th, 1969, speaks about Dio’s “Heaven and Hell.”
IN HEAVEN & IN HELL
Interview with the Sabbath dummer
I’ve also found, on the Black Sabbath 70s facebook page, an album of photos that were taken of the band on the 20th and 21st of December, 1969, which also includes the three photos from OP.
