Following the recent announcement that Heaven & Hell have raided their archives to put together a massive, multi-disc boxset, the band have just released another teaser for the goodies within – an absolutely killer live clip of Sabbath classic The Mob Rules, filmed at New York's Radio City Music Hall in 2007.

The band, formed of the line-up that made Black Sabbath's 1981 album Mob Rules and '92's Dehumanizer – Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Vinnie Appice – got back together in the mid-2000s, to perform Dio-era material. Initially only intended as a touring idea, in 2009 they released their epic The Devil You Know album, and continued to tour until Dio's death in May 2010.

The boxset, coming on March 27, contains the album, plus live shows recorded at Radio City, and at Germany's Wacken Festival in 2009, remastered in glorious HD. Just check out the scorching version of The Mob Rules to see just what a powerhouse they were...
