I'M LOOKING THROUGH

A HOLE IN THE SKY

I'M SEEING NOWHERE

THROUGH THE EYES OF A LIE
 





On August 5, 1975, 

Black Sabbath 

played a legendary concert

 at Convention Hall

in Asbury Park, New Jersey, 

during the early stages 

of their 

Sabotage tour. 

The performance was captured 

for the famous

King Biscuit Flower Hour 

radio broadcast 

and remains a 

fan-favorite live artifact 

from the original

 Ozzy Osbourne-fronted lineup
