Man, I love these dirty, bluesy guitar riffs with never ending tempo changes, insane drumming that never lets up, and add Ozzys almost haunting, one of a kind voice, singing those dark, mystical, philosophical lyrics and you’ve got the audio crack cocaine that was early Sabbath. It always sounds fresh and relevant and will continue to be discovered and rediscovered for many years to come.

Even by Sabbath standards, it's a God tier creation. It's incredible, the mood, the riffs, the vocals, the LYRICS, the RIFFS, the ATMOSPHERE, the change-ups, bursting with ideas but all flowing, excitement, tension, release, chaos and control in perfect balance.

My brothers put me onto Black Sabbath when I was about 13 when the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath vinyl came out to the disgust of my parents and to my awakening. Sitting in my bedroom with a portable record player was the beginning of my musical education. Still have the songs on my playlist 50 years later. Still have the vinyl too 😁 it was a huge moment and much different to the first record my mum bought me - Nancy Sinatra "these boots were made for walking". Don't have that vinyl any more.

Abracadabra, great choice--one of Sabbath's greatest songs! Tony Iommi is one of Rock music's geniuses. He played in blues bands in England, prior to Sabbath. His career nearly ended before it really started, when he lost the tips of two fingers on his fret hand, during an accident while working in a machine shop. He contemplated giving up music, but then he recalled the great jazz guitarist, Django Reinhardt, who played incredibly, despite the fact that he was missing some fingers. So Iommi figured out a whole new way to play; he wore rubber thimbles on his damaged fingers, used lighter-gauge strings on his guitar, tuned it down, etc. In the end, the heavy distorted guitar sound that Iommi pioneered, initially described as "Atomic Blues", came to be known as "Heavy Metal".

That was a killer track, and the whole album is great. But the real knockout from that album is the title track "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". Somewhat of an epic in it's own right. I expect you'll react to it in time. This was their 5th studio album and by this point were dealing with all the excesses and trimmings, as well as the trappings, of big name rock stardom. Really enjoy your attuned, yet equally relaxing, reactions. There's an almost meditative atmosphere to this channel, which is a welcomed gift in contrast to all the external worldly madness. Peace.
