This live release features a soundboard recording of the afternoon show held at the Olympic Hall in Moscow on November 19, 1989, during the world tour supporting the new album *Headless Cross*. Featuring the lineup of Tony Iommi, Tony Martin, and Cozy Powell, the band embarked on a world tour for the new album; notably, they performed a staggering 23 shows in Russia—13 at the Olympic Hall in Moscow and 10 at the EKS Hall in Leningrad—an extraordinary number of performances for just two venues. While recordings from the 1989 *Headless Cross* tour occasionally surface on the bootleg market, a soundboard recording from the Moscow shows is a rarity. This release captures the superb sound of the Iommi/Martin/Powell trio and showcases the immense talent of super-drummer Cozy Powell. The band delivers a top-tier performance in Moscow, revealing a "new Sabbath sound"—a positive evolution where the band's signature style blends synergistically with Tony Martin's vocal prowess. Thanks to the soundboard source, the audio quality remains consistently stable throughout, allowing listeners to fully enjoy this historic Black Sabbath performance in Russia. The MC segments in the latter half, featuring an interpreter communicating with the Russian audience, are quite unique.
