Black Sabbath

[osx]

I still like old sabbath... ozzy is da man!

you're never too old to rock out on 80's metal, big hair bands.

Their first five albums were great, particularly their first. All of my old Sabbath cds are scratched up, so I haven't really listened to them in quite some time.

 

[simwells]

yup gotta agree with that, though I wasn't alive when they were good

Black Sabbath

Do you remember the first time you heared Black Sabbath? What was your first reaction?

I remember hearing Paranoid and thinking "great riff"....and some mates from school got a band together and that was one of their set pieces

What was your first Black Sabbath album?

Mine was 'sold our souls for rock and roll'
It was so cool,not a bad track on it.It was a double album, I bought it on tape and went spare when my tape machine ate it!!
Great tunes and a real good singer in Ozzy.I still think he was made for Sabbath.
I bought the Greatest hits thing, good compo,just sad to see it didn't have changes on it,I love that song.
I bought the dvd,the one with the interviews,which were fantastic and hillarious in places (pioneers,wagon train,history channel,I hate you )superb!
I was really amazed at the drums and bass playing seeing as I spent like 25 years listening to the gtr and vocals,what an amazing drummer,Mr Bill Ward,and what a tremendously powerful bass player our 'Geezer' is.They just blow me away!
The other thing I realised is how really close to blues there first 5-6 albums are.
There is Black Sabbath , Rush, and Led Zeppelin (mid 70s classic rocks greatest trio) I have to say I was into Sabbath even before the other two, they were a nice off-set to my addiction for Queen music.

Yeah must have been Paranoid, the first song I heard, and it is a great riff, that was also my first Sabbath album, yup Ozzy was great with them, but he also did some really good stuff solo, especially when Randy Rhoads was still around

The first time I heard Black Sabbath I gave up country music right then and there. I was delivered.

really? I found that album a bit disapointing

 

[cygnusx1]

I think the first 20 seconds of ''Wheels Of Confusion'' are absolutely fantastic ............ they should have pursued the tune and mood further , it is classic !

it has my two fav Sabbath songs :

Tommorrows Dream
and
Snowblind.


it also includes two great songs ;

Changes
and
Laguna Sunrise

 

[blackwasp]

I think the first Sabbath song I heard was "War Pigs". I still think it is unbelievable.

Don't forget the Dio years! Those were great too!!!

Their self-titled debut as well as their 2nd album, Paranoid, was put out in 1970

Don't forget the Dio years! Those were great too!!!

Ouch.. hope this is sarcasm. Though I do like Heaven and Hell, Children of the Sea, and Lonely Is the Word

 

[cygnusx1]

I really like 'sweat leaf'
