Heaven & Hell: The Devil You Know (Bonus Best Buy DVD)

I found this in the street while I was on my way to work. I can’t believe someone would throw this out. Although I have the album which is becoming increasingly harder to find, I’ve always wanted the deluxe edition with this DVD as it contains a mini documentary that details how the band got back together and the recording process of the album. What I found most interesting was how the each band member described the soundof the album. It was mixed. Every band member said something different. Dio would say that the album was similar to Heaven & Hell and Mob Rules in certain moments, while Vinny Appice said it wasn’t as dark as their previous releases. The only one who got it rightwasGeezer Butler who described it as a continuation of Dehumanizer which is exactly what I thought when I first gave the then, new album a listen. I’m so glad I found this. I really enjoyed it.
