Since Black Sabbath never again reached the heights of their mid-'70s glory days, there's a brief sense of letdown during volume 2, especially when the videos venture dangerously close to "hair band" territory. But throughout, the group has kept its perspective, even developing a sense of humor usually buried by its notoriously dark music. --Kevin Filipski

Customer Reviews of The Black Sabbath Story, Vol. 2: 1978-1992
Good stuff on the history of sabbath, part 2 of the collection I have had this tape for almost 10 years now, and nothing has come along that even gets close to the material on this tape. It is now available on DVD. One difference with the DVD is that Volume 2 starts with the dio years, whereas the VHS starts with "a hard road" and the end of the Ozzy years, which the DVD collection put on volume one. This set covers the Dio years and the post Dio years with Ian Gillen, Glenn hughes, and Tony Martin, ending with the return of Dio and the Dehumanizer album. This set was put out originally at the time of the release of the dehumanizer album, unfortunately Sabbath was pretty well depleted in popularity at that time. So this is a must have for the sabbath fans. I just wish they would release at some point a volume three, to include the post De-humanizer years and the reunion, I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Black Sabbath - 'Black Sabbath Story,Volume Two' (Sanctuary Entertainment)
From viewing this DVD for the first time,I can NOW remember WHY I don't usually flip over that many DVD releases.I mean,this Story Of Black Sabbath is like a bad joke.It's got some good footage,but it should have had much more of Dio and Ian Gillan.Never cared for vocalist Tony Martin at all,but the clip here for "Headless Cross" isn't half bad.As for the songs performed with Dio,which were "Die Young","Neon Knights" and "TV Crimes",they should have completely edited the interview DURING the dang song!Those first two,I believe I saw them on Don Kirshner way back when.A total of 45 minutes of the music segment,plus several 'waste of time' extras.For Sabbath die-hards and completists only.Sure glad this DVD didn't cost me much.
Beware of false widescreen!!
The black bars on this video do not represent a widescreen ratio, but are simply black bars put in a full screen ratio because they want people to think it's widescreen. You can tell by comparing this dvd to the original fullscreen vhs tape that it's bogus. This sort of scam isn't unheard of in the industry, but it sucks that it had to happen here.

>As far as the video length argument goes, I believe they are including the duration of the extra features into that. The dvd case says 85 minutes. The main feature runs 50 minutes and there are about 30 minutes of extras so there's no cause for alarm. We aren't getting scammed on time, just on the screen!!

>I wanted to mention something that I found last night which I believe could be called an easter egg of sorts. When you flip through the discography menu, there is a link to the video from each album that is represented in this collection. The last album, Dehumanizer, isn't represented by a music video but there are segments of the recording process shown, a brief live clip of "I", as well as a photo session. These clips are readily accessible through the main menu. However, there is a second icon next to the "TV Crimes" song which takes you to what appears to be general miscellany: studio stuff, pool playing, outtakes from the photo session segment, and so on that isn't featured in the main program or the primary extras. Here's the interesting part: During the first part of this "hidden" footage, you can hear a repeated chant in the background that sounds like "Satan is great". It's just a couple people's voices quietly repeating throughout that first portion of the segment for no apparent purpose, then the scene changes to Tony laying down basic tracks for "TV Crimes".
