Unfortunately, as you know, bands (or mostly record labels) release material just for the sake of the cash, especially in the case of really big bands like Ozzy, Priest, Motorhead, etc. this sounds like one of those DVD's.

Looks like they dropped the ball in terms of bonus content. Kind of pointless as a DVD otherwise unless you're just really keen on watching every Ozzy performance you can get your hands on.

Mmm this is actually quite an interesting release for me since I have a couple of quite dodgy cassette recordings of that same tour with Brad Gillis on guitar. Now it is finally possible to have images of that tour as well.
As for no bonus content, I really don't give a flying f**k, 99% of the times the bonus content is crap anyway.
Brad Gillis was quite a big name at the time because of Nightranger.

Wasn't this already released in... you know, 1982?

Speak Of The Devil is one of my favorite live albums ever. I hadn't known there was live footage of it. I'll be interested to check this out. I've listened to the Speak Of The Devil album as much or more than any other Black Sabbath or Ozzy recording except for, perhaps, Live Evil.

Yep, the bonus content on DVD releases is usually a flying, steaming load of cr&polla so good thing they've dispensed with it. Just a big marketing ploy designed to suck people in. Hey, big bonus material! (and it is some jerk waffling on about the making of the thing). Anyway, each to their own. A serious question - with regards to this temporary replacement guitarist - does that mean Rhoads doesn't appear in the concert?

Nope that was the live album and that only featured Black Sabbath songs and not Ozzy solo songs

See my previous comment about the difference between the SOTD live album and the dvd

Of course Randy doesn't appear because he was killed in the plane crash a couple of months prior to this gig

I personally don't care for bonus material for reasons others stated already, but if it's rare footage of a legendary musician or a never-before-seen interview that reveals interesting information that can't simply be Googled, then I'm gonna appreciate that content.

Major embarrassment. Feel like a goose. Should have read that review more thoroughly. Oh well, happens to the best of us. I think I'll check out this DVD at some stage, just for the curiosity value. Agree that bonus content can be valuable if it is "never seen before" footage.

Brad Gillis did a fantastic job, too.
I agree - I'd be watching it to see the music I love performed live. Bonus content is nice, but usually not the reason I watch a DVD like this. Bonus content/footage that accompanies a CD is different - that's all about the bonus footage, etc., such as what you get with Decapitated or Opeth, for example.

I just noticed that's not even close to the song-list of the album. WTF? Snowblind and Symptom of the Universe are the best tracks on there.
