Black Sabbath je britská heavy metalová skupina, ktorá vznikla v Birminghame v roku 1968 a patrí k zakladateľom žánru. Zostavu pôvodne tvorili spevák Ozzy Osbourne, gitarista Tony Iommi, basgitarista Geezer Butler a bubeník Bill Ward.
Kompilácia The Ultimate Collection vyšla v októbri 2016 u vydavateľstva BMG počas záverečného koncertného turné skupiny. Obsahuje 31 skladieb mapujúcich kariéru Black Sabbath – od klasík ako Paranoid, Iron Man, War Pigs alebo The Wizard až po menej známe tituly z rôznych etáp tvorby skupiny. Materiál bol remasterovaný zvukovým inžinierom Andym Pearcom a zostavený členmi skupiny samotnej.
