  In April 1994, during the performance captured in the live recording "Black Sabbath - Live at the Hammersmith Apollo," the band was promoting their album "Cross Purposes," which had been released earlier that year. "Cross Purposes" marked a significant moment in Black Sabbath's career as it was the first album to feature vocalist Tony Martin after the departure of previous frontman Ronnie James Dio. The concert at Hammersmith Apollo was part of a tour that showcased a revitalized lineup and explored themes aligning with their classic heavy metal sound. The resulting live album, "Cross Purposes Live," released in 1995, captured the energy of the band's performance and featured tracks from their extensive catalog. Notably, this era signified a period of stability and creativity for Black Sabbath, as they continued to evolve while honoring their foundational heavy metal roots.
