Black Sabbath "Neon Knights" (live)
Heaven and Hell is an album by Black Sabbath, released in May 1980 (see 1980 in music). This is their first album featuring Ronnie James Dio, and first with famous heavy metal producer Martin Birch. Notable tracks include the title song, "Neon Knights", "Children of the Sea" and "Die Young".
Heaven and Hell became one of Black Sabbath's best-selling albums, revitalising Sabbath's fortunes after what many saw as the death of the group following Ozzy's departure.
In 2007, Sabbath went on tour with Dio as their singer (in place of Ozzy Osbourne) to promote the release of the compilation album Black Sabbath: The Dio Years. As Osbourne is once again a full time member of Black Sabbath, the Dio/Iommi/Butler/Appice lineup decided on the band name "Heaven and Hell", and to focus on post-Ozzy material, much of which hadn't been played in years.
