Anyone who saw Black Sabbath any year from 1970-1976 was truly lucky.

[@randallrhoads3271]

i saw them in Detroit in 75...in 76, and 1978. I cant stress to you enough of how much this band was hated back then. All 3 shows i saw were at Cobo Arena..the 75 and 76 shows, the place was barely half full..the 78 show was jam packed, and only because Van Halen was the opener. Back then, they were hardly ever played on the radio, and if they did, it was always Paranoid or Iron Man. I was a huge fan back then, yet all my friends and people i knew just hated them. Warner Brothers hardly promoted them...each album always sold almost the exact same numbers. They were a cult band...and you either loved em or hated them. Thats why is was not a shock to learn that Randy Rhoads did NOT like them at all...and he hated playing the few songs with Ozzy. But thats just the way it was back then. And now they are more revered than ever...strange.

[@nodaysback8390]

Not just the '70s.. I saw Original Sabbath 3x during the real reunion, between '99 and 2005.. The first one was the greatest concert l ever experienced. The second time, Ozzy had fallen off the wagon and was too destroyed to function properly loll. 3rd time was great again..

[@richardhincemon]

I saw Black Sabbath in 72 ,75 and 77 original members but in 1980 September 26th Charlotte coliseum Heaven and Hell tour was their best performance along with Feb 16th and 26th Greensboro and Charlotte NC coliseum Mob Rules tour those reunion shows for Ozzfest were a greatest hits package not really anything new except for Scary Dreams that featured Tony Iommi soloing.

[@nodaysback8390]

@richardhincemon Not sure what you mean or why you wud refer to the reunion tours as a greatest hits package? If you saw those shows, you left those dates off the list of the other shows you saw.. Of course they played a bunch of their best known songs.. Why wouldnt they? They played B-cuts like Sleeping Village, Electric Funeral, Dirty Women, Wall Of Sleep and Spiral Architect, too. But, they never played Scary Dreams at any of the shows l saw.. including the 1997 show that didnt include Ward on drums, which l didnt bother mentioning because it wasnt Sabbath without him.. nor was the Born Again show with Ian Gillan and Bev Bevan in '82 at the Nassau Coliseum.. Both good shows, but not Sabbath.

[@Greg-bl4fx]

San Antonio 1976.. Black Sabbath, Moxy and Boston. I was just out of high school experiencing first taste of freedom. Lived a lifetime that night

[@bloodlegion4874]

In my opinion the greatest heavy metal band of all time.

[@genesis3790]

they aren’t heavy metal... ozzy said he doesnt consider them metal either.

[@bloodlegion4874]

Black Sabbath NOT heavy metal???? Ozzy has been doing too much drugs then! Lol It’s because of THEM that metal exists. Don’t you agree?

[@richard623]

They probably invented heavy metal but they didn't play heavy metal. Their music is more than that. It's very hard rock, it swings and it grooves (special thanks to to Mr. Butler and Mr. Ward). And it's got a bluesy and jazzy feel, too. So much more than just heavy meral 🙂

[@RandyRhoadsRules3]

Richard Redl they played metal. There’s nothing else you can legitimately call their music. It’s far heavier than any rock.

He's not the only one at it, there's loads of gigs from the 70's out there in private collections - occasionally you might see a song or a clip used in a documentary but a lot of the time the whole gig is available, since anyone that went to the bother of setting up tapes and cameras would usually film the whole set

[@dandurack1355]

No longer in the C# tuning used on Master Of Reality, so it's much higher for Ozzy to have to sing. Sounds great though... anyone know where this was filmed? Cool to know there might be another full filmed Sabbath show out there that will (hopefully) be released some day.

[@60BloodyChamp60]

I’ve watched a few of these and they’re absolutely great because you get to see the guys in their primes as young men but I actually prefer the Reunion album to everything live they’ve ever done. What Ozzy’s voice lacked, which was only a little back then, everything else about that album made up for. He still sang pretty good and the guys were motivated to play again, and they were sober, from the hard stuff anyway. They hadn’t been those 2 things together since way before they broke up.

[@richardhincemon]

This is from the 76 Technical Ecstacy tours where Tony Iommi is using his Custom design John Birch guitar built by John Diggins instead of the 64 model Gibson SG with the Custom P90 pickups and customized neck built by John Birch used from the first album until the 75 Sabotage album and tours known as the Monkey 🐒 guitar .

[@hannsrhinesdale9769]

Poor Ozzy, having to sing this at a much higher key than usual, haha.

[@jeffmichaelcarney]

It's one and a half steps. Ozzy's voice mostly sounded great on this tour. I think it worked because he could still really get up there.

[@jeffmichaelcarney]

Maybe. But he had some amazing nights on the last two tours. People tend to find the worst on KZbin and think it represents much beyond an "off-night" for an old guy with who knows how many health problems, but he's had some sensational nights in recent years as well. On the last show I saw in Oakland he was positively fantastic. Not like 1974 fantastic, but damned good and certainly on par with most of his peers in terms of being able to get it done at such a late stage in the game.

[@sabbathtribute]

For some reason, all through the 70s, Tony didn't believe in changing guitars. Everything was always in one tuning only. This sounds good but would be far better in the correct tuning. Snowblind too

[@fuckamericanidiot]

Cash Watkins They didn't tune up just because lighter strings were available - tuning down in 1971 was a creative choice on Tony's part and had lighter strings specially made from 70-71 onwards.

[@RandyRhoadsRules3]

He could still handle it back then. He was in his prime. I think lower always suits Sabbath’s doom style though.

cast390 You must mean “E Standard” because there’s many Standard tunings. For example; G Standard, D Standard etc...

Ozzy could still hit high notes at this time (before all his vocal damage) so they didn’t have to tune down for him like they did after they reunited. Ironically I prefer them tuned down it fits their style better.
