Crazy Train, Paranoid, Iron Man, Sabbath [censored] Sabbath, Mama I'm Coming Home, the list just goes on and on.
-
Did they really sensor b.l.o.o.d.y.? Y'know, without the periods?
-
Let me just add a couple of deeper Ozzy & Sabbath tracks just because.....
'Steal away the night' 'Road to nowhere' 'Time after time' solo.
'The Writ,' which is about a bad contract with a record company or something & has a groove in the middle that is, well....unreal!! 'Snowblind' & 'Symptom of the universe' by Sabbath that starts out harder than hard, then mellows out unbelievably! Check them when you can. -

I mean, I could go on, but have to add that they weren't evil. They sung about evil, as in heroin addiction in 'Hand of doom,' etc. Just an amazing group of musicians. I appreciate them so much.
Hard to say they were evil when they had lyrics like, "could it be you're afraid of what your friends might say if they knew you believed in God above? They should realize before they criticize that God is the only way to love." After Forever on Paranoid. Geezer Butler, besides being one of the greatest bass players in history, was also a world class lyricist.
People who say that Ozzy or Sabbath were evil never actually listened to the music. A Satan worshipper wouldn't say, "God bless you all" at the end of every concert.
-
@TheGoaler_PSN Sabotage and Technical Ecstacy may be their 2 most under appreciated albums. With Symptom of the Universe & Megalomania on Sabotage. And, Dirty Women & She's Gone on Technical Ecstasy.
Man, this is awesome talking about Ozzy & Sabbath. Thanks for posting about him. Spent the whole day yesterday listening to the entire catalog.
-
@TheBigPapa55_PSN I know, right! That's why I had to put the parentheses around it on my post.
-
Early live version of War Pigs in 1970. Ozzy forgets some of the words & there are some alternate lyrics.

Ha ha. Great point.!
Biohazard did a cover of 'After forever' for that 'Nativity in black' Sabbath tribute album. -
@TheBigPapa55_PSN aren’t periods blood-y by definition?
-
Can't believe i found this. Wow. Someone on the 'Ozzy's Boneyard' channel on Sirius/XM mentioned this. I said: 'what???'
Googled it, and it's real. Mind blown!

@TheGoaler_PSN I'm an idiot, by the way. I said that and Into the Void were on Paranoid. I meant Master of Reality. I've always gotten those two albums mixed up.

I would love to meet Glenn.
BCC is incredible, and I hope to see them 'live.' Yes, I'm here in NYC. -
@TheGoaler_PSN Seen Glenn over 30x and seen BCC 3x. Dont think they will be touring anytime soon with Glenn, Joe and Jasons schedules being pretty full for 2026. I take it you missed BCC in sayerville in 2012?
-
@ralph13m_PSN Those were the original lyrics. The album was supposed to be called war pigs but the rec company made them change it.
-
@TheGoaler_PSN Eddie started with WDHA 105.5 NJ he used to have a metal show sat nites and did the famous "Midnight Metal News" at 12:00 on the nose it was here sometime in 1985 where i 1st heard Glenn Hughes was the new lead singer in Black Sabbath. Yeah im that old and that much of a music lover

Moved this to Off-Topic for you.
Also, RIP to the Prince of Darkness. What a bummer.
-
not for nothing but a decent convo w no insults, trolling, or anything just paying respect for someone and you move it? ::: scratches head :::: OK back to being silent and watching the trolling,BS, and nonsense that goes on here (just sayin).
-
@vinnis1_PSN -- only moving it to Off-Topic since it's not related to the game itself -- that's all! It's not intended to be a negative in any way.
Agree that it's a great conversation. If only they could all be this way, eh?
