Geezer Butler Releases Full Solo Discography and “Best Of” Album

Geezer Butler’s full solo discography has been re-released as a box set called Manipulations of the Mind – The Full Collection. That includes 1995’s Plastic Planet, 1997’s Black Science, and 2005’s Ohmwork. It also has a bonus disc of rare and unreleased material.

“The 4th bonus disc is a treasure trove of unreleased demos, studio outtakes, single edits, and three live tracks captured at the Majestic Theatre, Detroit, MI, February 1996, alongside the song ‘Beach Skeleton’, only previously heard on the Japanese edition of ‘Black Science’” Butler’s website explains.

For those who are looking for a condensed version of his work, Butler has also released The Very Best of Geezer Butler, which features select tracks from his three albums.

Manipulations of the Mind – The Full Collection and The Very Best of Geezer Butler are available now on CD.
