SHAMELESS plug time… The Black Sabbath special edition I have devised, written and edited for the Daily Mirror hits UK newsagents and supermarkets on June 25, ahead of the band’s upcoming reunion show.
Here’s the official synopsis …
Heavy metal legends Black Sabbath will play their final farewell gig at hometown Birmingham’s Villa Park on July 5, where the original line-up will play together for the first time in more than 20 years, supported by a stellar cast of rock and roll A-listers.
With new interviews and rare pictures, Black Sabbath: The Homecoming follows Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward from their very first pub gig to the forthcoming stadium supershow dubbed the greatest heavy metal show ever.

The band speak of their hopes and fears, the battle to overcome health issues, and much more, alongside tributes from big names on the Villa Park bill, an essential album guide, reviews of past homecomings, and even Sabbath tourism tips.
Read about the movie that gave the band its name, the surprise reunion that wasn’t supposed to happen, and the role fickle fate has played in the band’s success – and learn about the charities who will benefit from the Back To The Beginning show.
Crucially, this is Black Sabbath past, present and future – because although Villa Park may be the band’s swansong, there’s exciting news of more to come from the four Brummies who invented heavy metal. They think it’s all over. Well, it isn’t yet …
The special edition is priced just £3.50 and can also be ordered online with overseas delivery options available. If you’re looking to order a copy head to the Reach Regionals shop here.
