BLACK SABBATH STREAM “PARANOID” FROM “THE END”
Black Sabbath have released a live video of their final performance of Paranoid, watch it below.
The footage was captured at the band’s last-ever show at Birmingham’s Genting Arena in February and was the last track they played together before they took their final bow.
It’s been lifted from the DVD and Blu-ray of Sabbath’s concert movie The End which will also be released on CD and vinyl on November 17th through Eagle Rock.
Speaking previously about the experience, Sabbath said, “To bring it all back home after all these years was pretty special. It was so hard to say goodbye to the fans who have been incredibly loyal to us through the years. We never dreamed in the early days that we’d be here 49 years later, doing our last show on our home turf.”
The End features live scenes from the concert along with backstage footage and studio performances of tracks they didn’t play on the night.
The End is available for pre-order here.

I will always LOVE Black Sabbath! It doesn’t matter how many times I have heard “Paranoid” (and it has to be in the tens of thousands of times!), it can still rev me up! Anybody that loves hard rock or heavy metal, and tells you that they don’t care for Black Sabbath, is a liar or an idiot! While I think it’s a tragedy that they couldn’t work it out so Bill Ward could be a part of these final shows, I will definitely be going to a showing of “The End” and buying it when it comes out for sale.
That band photo of Sabbath just looks so wrong without Bill Ward in it.
I agree with you, Rattlehead. I will always be disappointed that these guys couldn’t work it out so that Bill Ward could be part of the final shows in Birmingham. It’s a shame that four guys who worked so hard to create a whole GENRE of music, which is what Black Sabbath actually did, couldn’t put aside their differences and work out the business side of things so that they could perform together at the end of their careers. Nobody but the four guys themselves really know the true story of why this tragedy occurred. Bill has his side, and the other three guys have their side. I really don’t know or care who is telling the truth. What I do know is that Bill should have been given the opportunity to have some part of the final shows. Whatever that entailed, whether playing the whole show or just a couple of songs (depending on his health), it should have been worked out.
