Black Sabbath Album Deep Dives #9: Heaven and Hell

[@LIE11Bldg7]

Every ounce of the album heaven and hell is PURE GOLD

[@bobs4454]

Best. Sabbath. Album. Ever!

[@lordwobbly]

Dio was a great singer, but the first six Sabbath albums and the first two Ozzy solo albums are miles better than anything Dio did.

[@gregnewman2512]

This is the Sabbath album I return to when I need a Sabbath fix. Other Sabbath albums may have had better songs but there was always filler. H&H bangs from beginning to end.

[@basher5107]

Heaven & Hell was not only a great album but Dio pushed the band as well as himself and they made great music after he had done great things in 9:07 Rainbow and eventually his own band DIO. Ozzy has never written a lyric or piece of music with Sabbath as well as on his own. Ozzy has been ok and was the voice of Sabbath in the early years but Dio revived a dead band.

[@maurymockler632]

Band i was in ...waaaayyyy back...played the whole album front to back a mnth after it came out....people didnt really know what it was at first. awesome album!

Apples and mash potatoes. Sure Dio was great, but no comparison to OzzY years 1969-1978. Different animal.

The bass work on this album is fantastic. One of my favourites. Have this on vinyl when it was released.

[@jimcullen2211]

I was 18 years old and graduating high school when this album dropped. I had low expectations for this project even though I was a fan of Ronnie's singing in Rainbow. It really depended on the material. This combination could deliver if the songs were good. If not, it would have been a minor footnote to their career. Boy, did they deliver. The first song from the new line up that I heard on the radio was Neon Nights and I was blown away. I went and bought the album right away. Ronnie breathed new life in to a group that could have easily been wasting away in the discount bin. Although my feeling, to this day, is that Black Sabbath in its truest form is the original four members, I loved this era. The early 80s seemed to rejuvenate hard rock and shake off the disco and punk of the late 70s. It was a great time to go to concerts for a few bucks and see your heroes. Too bad Ronnie and Sabbath didn't last long.

[@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486]

Yeah it would have been nice if they had lasted into the 90’s but I’ll take the 3 albums we have. I’m a huge fan of the Ozzy era but appreciate that they were reinvigorated with Ronnie. 👍👍

[@gianthills]

The "truest form" was a dead end and the final two albums with Ozzy was proof of that. That basic blues based stuff was unsophisticated and boring compared to the Dio stuff.

[@markrago7217]

Black Sabbath at their most melodic, nimble, and cohesive. Still plenty heavy, but so much more musical and optimistic sounding with Ronnie reinvigorating the band. This is one of my personal favorite albums by any band.

[@ChrisPropfeMusicallyObsessed]

The rebirth of Sabbath! They became a totally different band. Ronnie definitely pushed them in a new direction which was perfect for the new decade. I like Mob Rules the best between the two mammoth Dio records. Great video as always!

[@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486]

Thanks brother! Mammoth is a great description of both albums. 👍👍

[@georgezajkowski2723]

I can only think of a few times where a band replaced a singer and not only did they remain the same but became a totally different group ie. AC/DC - Black in Black, Black Flag - Damaged and Genesis - A Trick of the Tail. Growing up listening to Detroit Radio, I heard the title track at least once a day. It was a mini-adventure listening to that song. It was slow then fast, classical then progressive, melodic then heavy. Dio fit in perfectly I believe. And yet you didn't think it was Elf or Rainbow even though his vocals were exactly the same. A masterpiece of British Rock. 5 star presentation Jeff!

[@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486]

Thank you George! I believe WLLZ and WRIF had this song on rotation back in 1980. It still gives me chills even after all these years. Perfection!

This is my favorite Sabbath album. Tony's guitar playing especially his solos really improved. I was 1 of those "It's only Sabbath if Ozzy is in it" idiots back in 1980 til I saw Dio Sabbath on the Mob Rules tour & then I was sold. Not a bad song on it.

[@vikingbrace]

First off, I really liked the video montage you did for Children of the Sea. Very cool. And what was the weird fire pits of hell silent film clips? Incredible. I’ll be honest, I didn’t buy this album when it first came out. I was young and couldn’t buy everything obviously. But I got Mob Rules when it came out and then went back and bought H&H. I love both of these albums so much. They definitely crushed the last two albums Sabbath made before these, but that being said, I love all the early Sabbath and don’t normally compare the two lineups. I love them both. I agree that Die Young sounds like early Iron Maiden. Both coming out about same time. I love this video and will probably watch again. More Bo please.

[@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486]

Thanks Gary I don’t like to compare the two lineups either, all that matters is they both gave us some killer music. It’s hard for me to say which Dio album I like the best they are both rock solid. Glad you liked the Bo! 🤟🏻🤟🏻

Ronnie was one of the few singers whose voice never changed. It was just as good in 2009 as it was in 1974. A second Heaven and Hell album probably would have been incredible! R.I.P. Ronnie. Bill Ward claims to have no recollection of recording this album

Nothing against Ozzy at all, but Dio brought a vocal range to this album that makes it shine like a star. This is probably my all time favorite Sabbath album, and I always get push back from other fans of the band when I say that. That said, I'll admit, I like way more of Ozzy's solo career after Sabbath than Ronnie's even though Holy Diver is on par with anything Ozzy ever did solo (including the Randy Rhoades albums in my opinion).

Having grown up with Ozzy era BS, this was a tough switch for me. I never bought the LP for this and Mob Rules when they were released. I checked my Amazon Archives, I finally caved in 2005 and bought both of them on CD. Don't ever piss me off Jeff, looks like I can hold a grudge for 25 years. I ended up seeing them with Ronnie 3 times, and to be honest, I left early on all 3 occasions. They were good, just not the Sabbath I prefer. I loved RJD with Elf and Rainbow, but I know I listen to Tony Martin era Sabbath more than Dio era. Per usual, you did a great job!

[@Mike-aka747]

@@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486 It’s been said he disliked signing the Ozzy songs because Ozzy mostly sang with the riff. Not against it. He felt Ozzy Sabbath was cavemen not very musically intelligent. I agree with him to a certain extent and if Sabbath had one weakness it was Ozzy always singing with the riff. Makes it seem nursery rhyme at times. RJD had a gift of always singing across or vs the riff. So yeah Ronnie hated doing the Ozzy stuff. And you can feel it on Live Evil. I think he does a competent job but his handling of songs such as Iron man and war pigs are pretty cringe worthy. Also said he was happy as smitten when Heaven and Hell formed and they didn’t feel obligated anymore to play the Ozzy material. I don’t blame him. Already was tough enough replacing Ozz but having to put up with Ozzy’s crap and stage antics towards him was tasteless at best. I’m glad Ronnie fought back in his 1981 Interview. Ronnie may of been small in stature but his mind was brilliant and was a very intelligent and eloquently spoken man. That guy could read the phone book to me and I would stilll be enthralled 😂😂😂😂

[@Mike-aka747]

@@jeffwhitchervinyldestinati4486 Btw I met the man twice. In ‘94 and ‘09. Backstage both times. 30 min or so. Asked him a few questions and was always glad to give the answers. I asked him about Ritchie Blackmore and he gave me about a 5 min response. In short he basically said the man was a brilliant musician but a shit human being who didn’t value his fans. One thing about RJD was he appreciated his fans and you could feel it was genuine. If any indication of how he treated a nobody like myself is his true self then yes he loved the fans to death. Also asked him about how he felt about Sabbaths music before he joined. He told me the 800$ in the bank story and he had to suck it up. But he was determined to make Sabbath much different from the Ozzy years. And he definitely succeeded. Say what you want about the Dio years but I felt he made Tony and Geezer think outside their box a bit more. Tony became more Musical for sure. His solos I think are much more musical than during the Ozz years. I like both Marks of Sabbath and beyond that too but Dio Really got the ball rolling he could speak to Iommi more in musical terms since he was a guitar player himself. All Ozzy did was hum melodies he didn’t play any instruments except a hack job at. harmonica lol. Ok. Sorry about the ramble but most of my information is from meeting the man himself. So in the maybe combined 60 or so minutes I met him between the 2 times he was always open and honest. Very rare in rock and roll. I’ve met some asshole rock stars too. One within Sabbath but I won’t reveal his name as he’s still one of my idols. You can probably guess who he is 😂
