Anglická rocková kapela Black Sabbath patrí k zásadným skupinám hudobnej histórie. Black Sabbath sa dali dohromady v Birminghame v roku 1968 v zostave Tony Iommi (gitarista a hlavný skladateľ), Geezer Butler (basgitarista a hlavný textár), Ozzy Osbourne (spevák) a Bill Ward (bubeník). Sprvu sa kapela venovala klasickému blues rocku, postupne si však vytvorila vlastný štýl s dôraznými gitarovými riffmi, odkazmi na okultizmus a hororovými textami. Black Sabbath sú považovaní za pionierov heavy metalu.
Na zostavení kompilácie The Ultimate Collection sa podieľala samotná kapela. Doska obsahuje všetky zásadné nahrávky Black Sabbath vrátane Paranoid, Iron Man, War Pigs alebo The Wizard. Skladby boli zremasterované, v štúdiu sa im starostlivo venoval zvukový majster Andy Pearce (Deep Purple, Motörhead, Lou Reed, Iggy & The Stooges atď.). Kolekcia vyšla na 2CD.
