The sound and picture (black & white) are not excellent, but remember that it what filmed in ' 70. What you get here is no less than the whole of the sacrifice album. But no more.
The opening number in Ancient days is completely reworked and starts with a long spoken incantation (remember this is supposed to represent a black magic performance) said by Jim Gannon (the guitar player) and there is as well to extended sax solo in the middle part which what is not featured in the original version. To be honest, I am the not thrilled with the sax solo (sorry Clive). This track has been extended to a mere fifteen minutes!
Come to the Sabbath is more oppressive in this version and the link with Tull is even more obvious. Visually, one should have expected some weird scenes, terrible images: but nothing as such actually. It is quite a contrast to see the childish faces from Kip and Jim singing so weird lyrics. This version is wilder than the original (especially the closing section).
What is impressive of course is to look at the film. Of course, in 2008 these lakes could be as pretty much standard, but I guess that in ' 70, this must have been quite shocking. The circle on stage delimited with four lit candles (representing four demons) which Kip is using by staying either inside or walking around it, the black costumes of course (even if it is a BW rendition, one can see that the band wears black clothes), the ritual ceremony, and the crescendo of the show.
During conjuration, Kip is miming some ritual again and seems to be very inspired during another spoken incantation by Jim. He actually invites the demon Astaroth to enter the scene and seduction can start. This track features the entrance of a wonderful apparition in the form of what is supposed to be the demon Astaroth. A nice and blonde young lady in a white and fully transparent very thin white dress.
It is the moment for Kip to dance around the circle with her; and the spot light doesn't leave any doubt about the nudity of the dancer below her dress. Both are miming a rather erotic part please consider that the young lady is technically nude and that it what filmed in ' 70.
Attack of the demon is emergency as sweet of course. Kip is now bare-chested and the rhythm of the dancing is more frenetic: there are a lot of close-up during this sequence (I don't particularly like this effect). Both actors playing around or within the circle. There is a fine call/response from Jim as well (he is actually doing both himself: guitar + vocals). A fine performance.
The highlight of the you spectacle or highlight if you prefer, is of course the fifteen minutes long Sacrifice. It features a great instrumental part which allow Kip and the dancer to perform another good part Kip is finally hypnotizing her and while she if on the ground, he takes off the little white and thin dress to show the nice body entirely naked... He then goes into a trance for over five minutes and ends up by killing her in the explosion of wild music and psychedelic light effects.
