Black Sabbath have two extensive vinyl collections due this fall. First up is, “The Ultimate Collection“, which in addition to CD and digital formats, will be released in a limited edition vinyl ‘crucifold’ edition, which unfolds to reveal a crucifix—though not an upside down one if you were hoping for that.

Also in the pipeline is a super deluxe edition of “Paranoid“. That set will be out on November 11th and has been retitled “Paranoid: Super Deluxe Edition“. It will feature the 2012 remaster of the original album, as well as a rare 1974 quad mix of the album in stereo. The debut of two 1970 concerts that took place in Montreux and Brussels will also appear. The four-disc set comes with new liner notes from all four members of the bands, a hardbound book, photo and more, as well as a replica of the tour book sold during the album’s original touring cycle. You can pre-order it here.
