BLACK SABBATH Drummer And Legend BILL WARD - 'Children Of The Grave'

[@cbf63]

All 4 original members of Black Sabbath are still alive...this song is over 50 years old...it's amazing really!

[@ursulaschlapbach311]

Phantastic

[@aggcavan943]

I was just thinking the same thing as I was watching. The fact that they’re all still alive is really incredible.

[@JohnDoe-pq8yw]

More healthy athletes die today than old rock stars, many more.

[@PaulBrown-il3wl]

I remember speaking to disco bunnies back in the 70‘s. They were convinced Sabbath and the like were history. I told them they will outlive disco by hundreds of years. I think they’ll be crying in their sequins now.

[@AAB-nw2bj]

His drumming on War pigs was everything

[@Mxulin]

Especially the live version! That's crazy...

His drumming on Symptom of the universe is incredible.

[@rakeshadhin]

The understatement of the century! :)

[@ReneAlexisPenalozaMunoz]

I thought he was playing Children of the Grave Lol

[@COTG666]

Bill Ward didn't just play drums, he played what the song needed. That's what makes him so great. Coming up with interesting and original parts that fit perfectly is a talent very few drummers have. Always remember, he didn't have Google and KZbin to figure stuff out and learn new things. He created it.

[@neillenet291]

Ringo had that ability as well as Nick Mason from Pink Floyd. They play with the song requires

That is exactly what Lars is to Metallica!

@@lepetitoiseau John Bonham Quotes "I've wanted to be a drummer since I was about five years old. ... "When I left school I went into the trade with my Dad. ... "I was so keen to play when I left school, I'd have played for nothing.

[@juanmanuelapat5160]

Bill's jazzy and no-pattern style is hypnotic!

[@lepetitoiseau]

no reverse sticks for Bill on this one!🔥

[@dronairbrasil8555]

So raw and savage, still works today

[@blakegriplingph]

He cites big band musicians like Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich and Louie Bellson as his early influences, that's why.

[@MatChew75]

If he is not in the modern drummer hall of fame he should. A jazz Drummer who invented metal drumming. Ward One!

[@geoffsawyer5287]

Such a shame he never had the chance to join Sabbath for the last reunion tour. Saw them in 2015, it was great but to have Bill Ward would have been legend ! To me, the big 3 of the 70's drummers are Bonham, Paice and Ward !

[@robgoodier8185]

Moon?

[@anthonykantzabedian9031]

100% agree

[@zigg3600]

powel ????

[@derrickcook19941]

I think probably Peart, Moon, Bonham.

[@zdenkonouzovsky6947]

@@derrickcook19941 Moon was nowhere near to Paice or Ward.... and Peart was still in development in the 70s

Bill Ward is a treasure of music history.

[@strattuner]

ABSOLUTELY, his style is drumming,lead drumming,3 genius musicians with a lunatic on the mic,200 YEARS FROM NOW,they will be listening to the beats of sabbath,BILL WARD IS SABBATH'S BEAT

[@cacciatorezaccaria1629]

Bill ward is not a drummer. BILL WARD IS A LEGGEND!

[@amandamagalhaes2607]

O melhor baterista do mundo em minha opinião from brazil

[@joeyank2451]

Indeed

[@DoctorVinnyBoomBatz]

Legend is spelled with 1 G.....

[@UndergroundSkat2000]

I love how Bill kept the pace under control to where they didn't run away into some kinda thrash metal tune. He knows the Sabbath sound he helped create and it sounds original by his pacing

[@timothyjerry1177]

Bills like “wtf have I gotten myself into” 👀

[@paulboisvert3215]

I like how the Guitar player was pushing time and Bill kept him right in the pocket. He might not have the technique he once did, but he's locked in.

[@stevefromyellowstone7911]

The guitar player was all over the place . Very rough listen as a guitar player lol but damn Bill ward is still a POWERHOUSE behind the kit

[@AndyWrasman]

Thanks. Things seemed off and I thought it might have been Ward.

[@Growl60]

Never seen anything with Ira Black that impressed me. Always a slopfest.

[@whyismynametaken123]

I love how atmospheric Bill is on the older Sabbath albums. He doesn't care about laying down the beat, all he cares about is the "feel" of the overall story that's being told and it's amazing.

[@marktomasko8913]

Thank You Bill-- your a legend !

[@chrismorgan7494]

He was very orchestral.

[@chrisslooter2825]

You can hear how Bill is forcing these guys to swing.

[@paoloalcantara2465]

Indeed. Exactly what I noticed too

[@zaxe63]

So great to see Bill Ward still playing drums.

[@jeffreylieberman1668]

I'm still not giving up on one more Sabbath album with Bill Ward behind that kit! 😈🤘

Bill Ward delivered Black Sabbath out of the bars and into the charts

Believe that shit!!!!

Bill Ward is a revolutionary and pioneering drummer. His accomplishments and technique are absolutely remarkable. ❤

[@sandeepsreehari9188]

Man Bill Ward's still got it. He may be old but his drumming is still a gem to the ears. Thank you Bill for all the lovely music. Not to forget the other musicians here played great too.

[@TreyBDrums]

I can't play like Bill Ward to save my life but he has influenced my playing beyond measure with his phrasing and approach. Such a wonderfully unique talent.

[@gerryorangefan6150]

Absolutely Trey. The guy is still a hell of a drummer.

[@westernsellers9148]

You can plqy better than him in 2018 I'm sure

[@roddypampa3906]

bill use the attack as a cymbal... like keith moon!!! what a legend... I hope the 4 guys from birmingham make a last gig, its my dream

[@kawakalypse2770]

Yes! Bill! Drumming like 1977...

[@ronnyclayton194]

Bills a legend,after he had health problems and a heart attack in the late 90s I never would have imagined he would still be alive and doing so good,the way things are looking I think he'll outlive ozzy.

[@mikebaum5976]

Love Bill Ward, God Bless you Bill, your music touched so many, it can't be numbered,... Well done Mate,Well Done!

[@howfararewenow1683]

Great vocals !! And I like how the leader singer didn't try to overshadow Bill. Great performance !

[@operasinger2126]

Vocalist surprised for sure.

[@enriquetrev19]

There you have it a living heavy metal legend.. one of my principal insiprations to start to playing drums 15 years ago. Sabbath wouldn´t be the legend they are now without him. ALL HAIL BILL WARD!!

[@carleakins2153]

Talk about an honor. What a drumming legend.

[@krypticth]

These guys did a great job!!!!!!! Sabbath is my favorite band in the universe. Really great!

He is a GREAT GREAT drummer !! He is a KING of KING !! Please come back to Black Sabbath 1 more time .

You guys are so lucky to enjoy much of an honor and a blessing to be playing with one fourth of Black Sabbath iconic greatness. Bill Ward.

There's no one like this man, Bill Ward is such a legend, how could his brother's do their last album and say goodbye without him and be okay with it I'll never understand 😔

[@shspurs1342]

ray stone that is right. This sound like going back to the 80’s and that hair guitar rubbish. Bill should have stayed away from these guys.

[@thekillingduck]

@@shspurs1342 that singer was actually very good, the guitarist was also good and was obviously having a great time. Also it's getting pretty old complaining about phones at concerts. If the older generations would've had phones back then almost 100% alot of people if not all would be using phones to record. It's judt biterness and rudeness towards young people and new things.

[@jmgmarcus808]

Bill Ward is like the Jay Adams of Metal Drumming, the Godfather and a true original. God Bless him. ✌🏻️🇺🇸🙏🏻

The first time i saw a Black Sabbath live, was through a video cassette. I was like 10 years old? My uncle had brought to my father a live of them from Canada. And besides the fact that they all blew my mind, i will never forget my shock when i saw Bill playing his drums. Amazing power. Amazing! I think his drums hated him for many years cause of the constant destruction of them! He was super strong, amazing stamina and incredible groove. You can't become a drummer if you haven't study bill Ward.

[@sickofthebulldodo1461]

I never knew he did those four hits quickly with his left hand following the guitar trying to do that with your right hand playing on the ride and keeping your foot going ain't freaking easy don't take that act of Independence for granted. Not to mention Sabbath drums performance and sound were produce so much better than I thought they would sound till I heard him isolated truly amazing and underrated as far as production goes. Plus props to mr. War for his humility.
