194. Black Sabbath / Cross Purposes Live. 1995. 4/5.

Recorded live on the Cross Purposes tour, this live album gives the world the opportunity to hear the band live with Tony Martin on vocals, which is a treat in itself.

Comprising material from all three main formations of Sabbath, this live album puts to bed the one remaining problem Sabbath had – a live album covering the Martin era.
The album includes songs off the latest Sabbath installment, as well as a couple of tunes from The Headless Cross, as well as the obligatory Dio and Ozzy era songs.
I've said before that I like Tony Martin. Maybe not all of the material they wrote while he was the lead singer, but you can't knock his singing. This album shows that he can cut it live as well.

Rating : Sabbath is Sabbath! 4/5.
