The well-shaped set draws on sharply written songs across the catalogue, while its appeal rests more on the performances than on new arrangements.

What we noticed

  • A brief “Iron Man” opening gives way to “Your New Cuckoo”; the set closes with “Sabbath Bloody Sabbath,” returning to the opening riff’s Sabbath reference.
  • “Lovefool” arrives at track 12, but the set continues through “Carnival,” “Happy Meal,” and other earlier songs rather than treating the hit as a finale.
  • The 20-track listing ends with a short film and a promo video; these are extras, not part of the live set’s musical pacing.

Little footprint beyond its audience. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
