Never Say Die!

Black Sabbath’s most underrated album for sure. “Never Say Die!” is the eighth studio album by Sabbath, released in September 1978. If ever an album title was proved false, it was this one. Following the sacking of Ozzy Osbourne in 1979, “Never Say Die!” ended up being the last studio album made by the original Black Sabbath. And with Bill Ward’s absence from the band’s comeback album “13”, so it remained until their split.

Having briefly quit the band in 1977, Ozzy was by his own admission “fucked up” during the recording of “Never Say Die!” but even when carrying their singer, Sabbath still produced flashes of brilliance on the album’s explosive title track, slow-rolling boogie “A Hard Road”, and the beautiful, jazz-influenced “Air Dance”, featuring Don Airey (Rainbow / Deep Purple) on piano.

This is an original German pressing from 1978, complete with insert, and everything in great shape. Check out the photos!
