Bit if Finger is a nod to Tony losing the tip of a finger in a wirk accident. That had a large influence on his guitar sound. This is their debut, recorded in 12 hours. One of the few bands of their era where all original members on the debut are still alive.

[@davidsleek6401]

The Bass lines in this album are incredible.

[@AlEx-fx7dk]

each sabbath song is an album all its own. they coulda had like 10 times the albums they did, but they weren’t stingy with the grooves, they had riffs to spare. this hands down some of the best music to ever be recorded in my opinion. thank you for giving people that maybe never heard them before the chance to experience the power and glory that is black sabbath.

[@bpjr1899]

Everytime you react to Black Sabbath my ears are ringing afterwards as I can not listen to them on low voulme! Thank you....

[@retiredfirelt586]

This is what we called "heavy music" back in the days Bros. 😎

[@olive2292]

jazzy doom 😁

[@davidsleek6401]

I was eight years old, in 1970, when I got this album from one of my brother in laws. It was the best thing I’d ever heard and today at 61 years old it’s still the best album, start to finish, I’ve ever heard.

[@mr.snicker-doodles7081]

There is ONE more song! On the English release of the record they swapped out Wicked World for "EVIL WOMAN". A cover by a band named Crow, their manager made them do it, they hated it but it's actually pretty good! You guys should do it!

[@mattsabath]

I can listen to Tony Iommi play guitar all day long and I can’t say that about any other guitar player in any genre. He just has a knack to keep coming up with interesting hooks and leads. Put that together with the rest of the band and it’s pure magic. No one touches them. The first 6 albums and there’s only 1 song I would skip and it’s not even a song (FX). The greatest band hands down. Everyone else is competing for second.

[@kraig7777]

In my opinion Tony Iommi > Randy Rhodes. Especially since I remember an interview with Rhodes back in the day where he talked a lot of sh*t on Iommi, said he "was not impressed".

[@RoRo-vr6wx]

Yeah, lol fx is like blehhh

[@RoRo-vr6wx]

​@@kraig7777he was more into melodic and classical stuff in my opinion but Tony was a bluesman from the Occult.

[@blackdog9951]

Mike Bloomfield is another one I can listen to all day long. Especially the East-West album by Butterfield Blues Band (trading licks and solos with Elvin Bishop. Alice Cooper said it’s his all time favorite album.

[@mr.snicker-doodles7081]

Tony Iommi, the RIFF master...ALL of their albums with Ozzy are classics. Even Never Say Die, their last one...so awesome

[@ws3764]

A Black Sabbath Riff is unmistakable...and soooo DAM AWSOME🤟

[@nickozzy]

from the day I heard it I started growing my hair long, wearing black clothes and learning guitar... they changed my life...

[@Michael-Philip]

I like when Che closes his eyes and bangs his head, That's when the music is good.

[@LagmasterB]

Warning covers more musical genres, tempos, time changes than any song I can recall. Rock. Blues. Jazz. Classical.

[@garya7893]

Warning has been my fav from them from the moment i heard

[@godbluffvdgg]

:)...Happy you just wrote "Warning" instead of what many people write; "the warning"-pet peeve...:)...As a half century Sabbath head, It's my favorite too...The Axe work is sublime...

[@steakandkidney3142]

Spot the lyrical error in the warning.

[@johnhess7225]

It’s a cover song. Look it up

[@johnhess7225]

This album was their normal set when they played live before they got a recording contract. They went into the studio and layed it down in one day!!!!!!

[@AngelofSunday]

Amazing to think that all genres of metal were born in a 12 hour recording session. Gods.

[@greenbeatsred]

Outstanding record and awesome reaction! Geezer Butler went all the way to the bottom on his bass. Loved this! In one of their documusic videos Ozzy tells the story that they were rehearsing and the phone rang right in the middle. When they answered the phone it was Geezer's mom calling to tell him to turn his bass down it's too loud. Only the band was in New York and mom was in England. Hilarious the way Ozzy tells it with his crazy accent.

[@user-ki1yw5ul8y]

This is one of my sabbath favs. Ozzy is so soulful 😊❤❤it

[@fenderchamp8241]

Look for Evil Woman. It was left off the U.S.release. Great tune.

[@darrenevans4800]

The first time I heard this was in 82. I was hooked. The blend between Jazz and their own style was freakin awesome. Thanks for your reaction. I enjoy them all.

[@Shingen036]

Glad you all are learning about Sabbath. I had this album in 1976; Vinyl. I was 10 years old. Burned so many needles listening to this album. Iommi taught me how to play a guitar.

[@jacklund9366]

I was wondering when you guys would get here. Personally, I think "the Warning" is their masterpiece

[@silvanorossi6416]

Every instrument is heard and they are insync with each other. Masterful

[@ergus55]

I've been listening to this band and this album for 50 years or so, but it wasn't until remastered versions started coming out a few years ago that I began to appreciate what an awesome bassist Geezer is.

[@matthewgriffin6851]

Geezer Butler is the most underrated bassist and probably my favorite and Bill Ward one of the best drummers of all time and also very underrated great reaction and thanks for the hard work I really appreciate and enjoyed it

[@smokeybear5460]

Proud of you guys keeping Sabbath alive 🤘

[@robertlavorna2968]

im fascinated by your reactions, mainly because you appreciate what they created and their absolute greatness as musicians. i know theres so much out there, i would suggest you do volume 4 and sabotage next, my personal favorites!!...but , believe me you cant go wrong with any of their albums, especially the first 6.....i agree, the darkest, hardest "love song" ever!!

[@vicprovost2561]

This album so freaked us out back then and Warning is a main reason why. One of the heaviest jams and solos ever by anyone, Iommi just let's loose. Nice debut, eh! Sabbath rules from the very stsrt. Enjoy! 🎶🎸🎤🎹🎶

[@atticusfinch4687]

That's exactly what we did. Listened to this on the way to school, on the way back, and every night

[@davecolvin310]

Iwas 12 had a coach in my bedroom.between zep and this album and alot of drugs and alcohol was my introduction into adult hood.still alive.

[@jasonrichardson1208]

This is where it all began! 🤘😆

[@helkas3316]

They just walked into the studio and recorded this in 2 days basically live. 4 tracks, 4 members.

[@Michael-Philip]

💥💥💥 Man I love Sabbath 💥💥💥

[@michaelbrown3128]

Once I see the head bobbing and bouncing, I know you are guys are digging the song. I connect with it cause I feel music. Remember this first album gave everyone a taste of what would become one of ard rock/heavy metals most influential bands of all time!!!!

[@thomasferguson2795]

The first three Black Sabbath albums are must haves. 53 years later and still incredible. Keep the good ole stuff coming guys. There’s a reason it’s called Classic. A paradigm shift in music from 1970.

[@chrisgwyn1127]

Warning is actually a cover song originally recorded by The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation.

[@rockandrollmd541]

They released a Side A single called "Evil Woman" at the same time as the debut album, which was a cover song. Wicked World was Side B.

[@Molasar54]

They relased this on 02/13/1970. I was fortunate enogh to hear this album at my friend's big brothers place. To say I was blown away does not do it justice. We had never heard anything like this before. They were the true pioneers of metal. This album is 50 years old and it still sounds fresh.

[@vicprovost2561]

Same here, we got the album a week or so after release, little did we know the life altering music contained in it. Freaked out all our parents, wherever we went someone was pissed about it, LOL!

[@reedwilson64GTO]

Crazy how far back this goes. BEAUTIFUL CREATURES "Ride" and "Going off"

[@drainmonkeys385]

Everything about their music is haunting

[@stephenclague3117]

These songs are an experience a musical journey. Rock blues jazz funk, this is how good music can be❤✌️

[@queti9051]

Love you guys!!!!!! 5 more albums next!!!!! ceers from argentina!!!!!!! you only can trust in youself and the first 6 Black Sabbath albums...

[@godbluffvdgg]

Great reaction and happy to see it still getting love so many decades later! The whole album recorded in one day Oct 16, 1969...Nobody ever came close to Sab's originality!

[@vicprovost2561]

The witch on the album cover will haunt humanity forever. Someone, somewhere, is listening to this band, right now, and they will continued to heard forever.

[@godbluffvdgg]

@@vicprovost2561 Hopefully, they are heard forever...:)...

[@johndrx165]

I LOVE Black Sabbath!

[@enriquemurillo5456]

Can't wait for full Paranoid reaction and Master of Reality. You're going to love both

[@tjmasson1013]

The album that sent me on whole new musical direction

[@raymonddricker974]

Warning was originally released as a single in 1967 by Aynsley Dunbar's "Retaliation" (Dunbar would later play for Frank Zappa & Jefferson Starship)

[@EuphoriaCyborg]

A bit of finger A cup of tea A drop of blood Is good for thee

[@neillenet291]

I am really enjoying hearing you guys go through the Black Sabbath discography! You guys are the best!

[@silvanorossi6416]

Ozzy's vocals are hauntingly beautiful and the blues kicks in to shove it in your face😂

[@Hmuondestiny]

Can't wait for you to start the next album guys

[@Hmuondestiny]

Gotta love Hand of doom

[@matthewchambers-sinclair8772]

I was 13 when I bought this album and wore it out before I turned 14. Still love these tracks when the mood is right.

[@johnprice6066]

I really enjoyed your reaction to the bit of Jazz that Bill Ward snuck into the mix. 🙂

[@stevewyman6848]

I can't wait for you guys to go through and react to what I consider is Black Sabbath's best album, not just for song writing, but production as well.

[@clasmaster1471]

The album was just mind blowing when it came out. It still is. It’s like a jam session in a dungeon! The riffs are so fat and the baselines are so fat, Bill Ward beach the drums like they owe him money and it is so heavily blues influenced. I love growing up listening to Sabbath. The first time I listen to Iron Man on my dad’s vinyl when I was a kid I was hooked!

[@justinatest9456]

This album they were finding their sound, going from a blues band, to creating the genre of heavy metal. The next five albums are all absolute cohesive killers. Hope you keep up the full album reviews. The whole band was just getting started here.

[@SeasonedCitizen99]

Back in the 70's we'd roll a big fat one, throw this album on and just melt. 50 years later and it's still awesome!

[@josephdownes4718]

1st time I heard this song I was trippin and thought this was 42 min long 🤣🤣🤣

[@joykeebler1916]

- in the order of Bill Ward, Geezer Butler, Toni Iommi and Ozzy Osbourne - as in the warning and then coming resurrection Black Sabbath

[@joykeebler1916]

- and in the time that the music of Black Sabbath gave me dreams while so listening

[@MikeOstrowski-iq8wf]

“Jam Session” 🤘🏼🎸🔥❤️

[@aldower3390]

What a song , amazing 👏

[@Silence_Duder_Gooder]

There's so MANY transitions in this song that I warped my brain-in a good way-the first time I heard it.

[@RazzleDazz72]

To me, this is the most epic Sabbath song.

[@stefan.911]

For me the mood decides which of the first 6 albums is the best that day.

[@aldower3390]

The warning, it should have a warning with that groove 😂

[@vicprovost2561]

As Iommi rips a hole in the fabric of the universe...Heavy Metal is born. 🎸

[@richardworton4597]

Bill Ward is a drumming God

[@kraig7777]

Just have to say real quick, to appreciate Sabbath you need big speakers and power, not headphones. I love my headphones but some music just needs big speakers to sound complete. You need to feel this to appreciate it.

[@vicprovost2561]

We had a Sansui amp that was 200 Watts per channel. Back in the 70s, when we listened to Sabbath, so did the neighbors... 🎸

[@majones501]

I have been thinking the same thing about this needing to be listened to with good speakers, ones that have a heavy low end and a crisp high end. It sounds great on excellent headphones, but part of the joy of Black Sabbath is feeling the music! I always rattle my windows when I play Sabbath! I do love seeing you experience Sabbath; it’s exactly how I experienced it in 1977, except you have more knowledge about making, mixing, and producing music. I felt those things but didn’t yet have the vocabulary to put it into words.

[@kraig7777]

@@majones501 Yeah I forget that these guys are producers. lol they probably have better speakers to listen to than I do.

[@susanfisher5342]

Agreed!

[@siderion8426]

Old tube power baby!!!

[@christopherhuot2826]

This music sounds like it could've come out today, very sweet 😋

[@RoRo-vr6wx]

​@dr.leslieorgelpfeifersyndr5143I think it would still have some following

[@farmerapps]

Guys you have to react to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Possibly the heaviest ever riff in that there song. The whole album is epic, but that track is on another level. Get to it soon guys and keep up the good work🥁🎤🎸🎼🎤

[@bleubaker]

There is no better music to clean your house to, this stuff slaps!

[@michellezaleske-estrada40]

Isn't it AWesome?!!!!!

[@terrypetrella6581]

Hey! Cha & Lee, don't know if you guys ever heard of the group Electric Wizard. Named after Black Sabbath's two songs Electric Funeral and the Wizard. The group formed in Dorset England in 1993. The album Electric Wizard is pretty heavy, bassy, some blues and slow beats just what you guys like. I like the first eight tracks. Black Sabbath is my favorite band and this band was definitely inspired by them. Hope you check them out. Take care. Terry P.

[@SouthTexasRocker1]

Yes, definitely a top-notch debut album! Eight years later, Sabbath would headline a tour with Van Halen as their opening band. Van Halen's debut album had just dropped and they were kicking ass every night. Legend is that Ozzy and the boys had a hard time following the young, hungry, and talented Van Halen performance every night of that tour. Drugs and infighting were taking their toll on Sabbath and they would soon fire Ozzy. That event led to Black Sabbath recruiting Ronnie James Dio and Ozzy forming a solo band with Randy Rhoads. I look forward to you guys discovering that era of Sabbath & Ozzy and also delving more into the Mighty Van Halen! 🎸

[@vicprovost2561]

I saw that tour, Van Halen had us standing on our seats for Eruption but as much as I loved Eddie, Tony Iommi was still the boss for me as the first notes of War Pigs echoed in the arena.

[@Bushanie24]

great album review fellas. glad you enjoyed

[@klasseact6663]

Just wait till you guys get to the third album!

[@mrnobody9104]

Good as it gets right there!

[@markknebel8923]

That is the best Black Sabbath album. The others are great, but by far, the first one was the best!

[@eliteautoworksmd]

Hey guys just a little info....They recorded this whole album in 12hrs!!!!!!!!!

[@painless465]

I don't know why,but Warning reminds me so much of the My Generation medley off of The Who Live at Leeds. Basically the same guitar tone

[@vicprovost2561]

Yes, I concur, they both are using Gibson SGs and at that point Iommi and Townsend were as heavy as it gets for that era instrumentaly and those are 2 of the best guitar exhibitions ever!

[@user-ex7iw8fm8h]

Smooth Brothers… I was in Italy when I was 13, bought the album but it came in a fold up I didn’t seen here in Canada so I had to have it.. It also came with a bonus song, Evil Woman.

[@lauraulnye6857]

Check out The Writ from their Sabotage album.❤❤❤

[@youreatoilet]

Fun fact: 'Warning' is actually a cover of a song by a British blues band called Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation (Dunbar was briefly the drummer for Jeff Beck and formed Retaliation after he was kicked out) If you listen carefully you'll hear Ozzy actually gets the lyrics wrong lmao, it should be "I was warned about you baby but my feelings were a little bit too strong" but Ozzy says (presumably not having access to lyrics back then) "I was born without you.." Still one of the greatest covers of all time in my opinion, their heavy dirty sound worked so well with the vibe of the song, not even mentioning the jazz/blues improv solos by Iommi. Much like Hendrix covering Dylan's 'All Along The Watchtower', Warning became a Sabbath song and very few people have even heard of the original, and with good reason!

[@Michael-Philip]

I was warned" makes sense.. Thanks

[@robertlavorna2968]

great facts to know...thank you!

[@raulitopecina]

[@isomer13]

If I was stranded on a desert island, and could only have one artist to listen to-it's a tie between Sabbath and Floyd. I really can't think of any other artist that I'd add to that. Some, I might miss, but that's okay. You've still not listened to any tracks from Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Can't wait. Thanks guys.

[@soulpatchjackson3076]

Nice Eazy E shirt, Dude 🤙 Bit Of Finger has got to be referring to the little bit of finger missing from two of Tony's finger tips.

Dark heavy jazz what would it be like if they did that with a band like Praxis now. Your heads would be boppin

[@freddymo3339]

Again, BILL WARD is one of the TOP FOUR ALL TIME rock drummers ! His only pear group is Neal Peart, Keith Moon and you know, John Bonham . - a 67 year old slow burner.

You come out of the gate with this?????? When no one has ever done anything like this? C’mon. So thank you for going through entire albums. It’s how the artist always wanted their music to be heard. While I may understand those who say ‘it’s not my type of music’…in my heart and soul, I believe Black Sabbath is one of the greatest bands of all time. And like JPJ, shout out to Geezer. And of course Bill Ward!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤ P.S. You haven’t done Snowblind, N.I.B., Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Planet Caravan, Children of the grave, etc. etc. etc.
