5 stars New DSD Brings Szell to Fullest Clarity
SONY put its entire Mozart by Szell collection together (even never before released 1940s mono performances) and delivers full 'Szell clarity' using DSD, direct stream digital restoration technology....do not miss owning this box set of Everything Mozart by Szell.

5 stars Not quite everything.
To correct the previous review - This wonderful box contains ALMOST all of Szell's landmark Epic/Columbia Mozart recordings but for some strange reason does not include any of the numerous recordings of Mozart piano concertos featuring piano legends Robert Casadesus and Rudolf Serkin - which is a great pity. The flute concertos with Eugenia Zukerman are also missing - perhaps because they were recorded with the English Chamber Orchestra instead of the Cleveland? Still. they were recorded for the same label (Columbia, now Sony). Otherwise this set is just about perfect in matters of performance, sound and presentation - and at a marvelous price too. Let's hope that there will be a third Szell box in this Original Jacket collection.

Black Sabbath Master Of Reality CD  (1971)

Original Jacket Collection - Mozart / George Szell
CD $8.95  4.5 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
The album's opening track, "Sweet Leaf," a salute to one of the band's favorite smokeable substances, contains one of metal's heaviest guitar riffs, courtesy of Tony Iommi. Another eternal band favorite is the grim, post-nuclear war tale "Children of the Grave." Vocalist Ozzy Osbourne is in fine voice on "After Forever" and "Lord of this World," while the more tranquil "Solitude" and the instrumental Iommi compositions "Embryo" and "Orchid" offer a bit of variety. Though not quite as influential as PARANOID, MASTER OF REALITY remains one of heavy metal's founding gems. While other frontrunners of hard rock/metal like Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple began dabbling in other musical forms (folk and string symphonies, respectively), Black Sabbath stuck close to its original direction and was rewarded with several ...

Black Sabbath Sabbath, Bloody Sabbath CD  (1973)

Original Jacket Collection - Mozart / George Szell
CD $8.65  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
While the title track is the album's best-known song, SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH proved to be another in a long line of 100% filler-free records from Ozzy and co. Highlights included the creepy "Who Are You?," plus the Tony Iommi riff-mongers "A National Acrobat," "Killing Yourself to Live," and "Sabra Cadabra," a song that Metallica would cover on its 1998 release GARAGE INC. You'll also find one of Sabbath's most haunting yet serene instrumentals, "Fluff," as well as the melodic album-closing rocker, "Spiral Architect." SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH is quintessential heavy metal. 1974's SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH is widely considered to be Black Sabbath's last true classic album. The musical experimentation that began on 1972's VOL. 4 was continued here, but this time it took the form of ...

Black Sabbath Technical Ecstasy CD  (1976)

Original Jacket Collection - Mozart / George Szell
CD $6.15  3.2 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
By the mid-'70s, a number of problems were threatening to break up the original line-up of Black Sabbath. The stress brought on by lengthy touring, drug use, and alcoholism had begun to dilute the band's original, influential heavy metal. Sabbath began to drift away from the straight-ahead power rock of such classic albums as PARANOID and SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH, as evidenced by its final two albums to feature singer Ozzy Osbourne, 1976's TECHNICAL ECSTASY and 1978's NEVER SAY DIE. However, TECHNICAL ECSTASY does contain some intriguing, overlooked tracks. The best known song of the bunch is the album-closing rocker "Dirty Women," which explores the topic of prostitution, and was later featured on the original line-up's 1998 live album, REUNION. Drummer Bill Ward sings his one and only song with the band, "It's Alright," which is amongst Sabbath's most pop-friendly compositions ever. Also featured is the pacing album opener "Back Street Kids," the heavy blues and funk of "All Moving Parts ...
Paranoid

Black Sabbath Paranoid CD  (1971)

Original Jacket Collection - Mozart / George Szell
CD $8.69  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
PARANOID proved to be Black Sabbath's most focused, consistent, and successful record. Leaving behind the amorphous, extended jams of their debut for focused songs and a more structured sound, Black Sabbath virtually wrote the book on heavy metal with the ominous, unforgettable riffs, thunderous rhythms, and dark themes on this release. There are some up-tempo rockers, the famous title track for one, but for the most part PARANOID oozes along like a bad dream, as on the slinky, creepy opener, "War Pigs," or the lumbering thud of "Iron Man" (which boasts one of the most indelible electric guitar riffs in rock history). The album's title is apt: PARANOID is filled with an edgy aggression and lyrics about war, insanity, death, and destruction. Ozzy Osbourne's flat, affectless voice merges perfectly with Tony Iommi's fuzzed-out, sledgehammer power chords and the bruising bass and drum lines to create an intense, freaky, horror-show universe. There are elements ...

Black Sabbath Never Say Die! CD  (1978)

Original Jacket Collection - Mozart / George Szell
CD $6.09  3.4 stars Audio Samples
By the end of the '70s, though Black Sabbath remained a top concert draw, its albums had become increasingly erratic and sub-par when compared to its earlier master works. Singer Ozzy Osbourne's growing disillusionment with the band had reached a boiling point, especially after it took so long to complete 1978's NEVER SAY DIE, the original line-up's final album. Though the album's title might suggest that the band had reconciled its differences (Osbourne had already left the band once previously, only to return shortly afterwards), the turmoil spilled over onto the recording. The album-opening title track remains the record's best-known track, as it was featured on Ozzy's popular 1982 solo live album of Sabbath material, SPEAK OF THE DEVIL. Other hard rockers on the first half of the album, such as "Junior's Eyes" and "A Hard Road" prove to be standouts. The final deciding factor for Ozzy's permanent split from the band occurred ...

This reissue contains 2 bonus tracks from RAW, LOUD, LIVE EP. Released at a time when the band was pretty much falling to pieces, Live (Hot Curry and Wine) combines tracks from Holocaust's influential debut, The Nightcomers, with a number of new songs and obscure tracks. Most crucially, this set contains possibly the only commercially available version of the band's classic "The Small Hours" (famously covered by ...
