This boxset has far superior remastering than the Dio Years disc that came out last year. Both H&H and Mob Rules were in dire need of sonic overhauling and they are finally here in earsplitting sonic glory. I am so floored at how great they sound. Dehumanizer needed a little tweaking as well and this remaster sounds even better than the original 1992 release. Live Evil also benefits from remastering sounding so much better than the original CD release. The packaging is cool but I wish that Rhino had done a cool book with photos and lyrics like with the OZZY BLACK BOX set. All in all, this boxset is essential for Sabbath and Dio fans!
What's great about it: This is Metal that is Mandatory!
What's not so great: THERE ARE NONE. BUY THIS BOXSET!
