Black Sabbath Fairies Wear Boots cover by The Snowdogs

The Snowdogs covering Fairies Wear Boots by Black Sabbath with our friend Jay sitting in on drums.*** Enough with the arse picking comments, it was a hot day and he was sitting on a wooden deck, any one of you would've done the same. Besides you should be watching the band and not a 12 year olds arse!
Recorded in Bradford, MA. (30 miles north of Boston) June 2022

This is the best version I have ever heard a band pull off.

[@fefowa]

True words my friend, great cover

[@MotownGuitarJoe]

That bassist is channeling his inner Geezer!!!!

[@kinchegayowie6167]

has not left us bass players down, solid job and groove and the obligatory beard

[@vermontbred]

Jay is channeling Bill Ward!

[@mrjon75]

​@@vermontbred ive seen OG Sabbath and saw them in '13. Id take this dude here over the jerk that replaced Ward. Ward is so rad though.

[@johnmontgomery1696]

Excellent job on the mixing!

[@sosmra]

Absolutely

[@barbrice721]

I listen to Sabbath in my car all the time . I'm 65. Reality was the first album I ever bought in my early teens.

[@jonsa]

Wow! One of thee hardest Sabbath songs to play! And these guys are nailing it!👍🤘❤

[@jeanponce2017]

This was like one of the first Sabbath songs I learned to play as a teen. Sabbath was a close second to Zeppelin as my favorite. But then by the 80's Zeppelin ran away with it but the late '70's was a great time for rock music coming out

[@nickhill8612]

Awesome, you guys nailed it. Hope you realize how much us old Ozzie fans from the 70’s appreciate youth of today enjoying and replicating real Rock in American history. It means more to us than you realize. A bow to the youngest singer. Rock on till you die.

Loved when the kid came in on vocals!! I didn't expect that. And also loved the nod to the Black Sabbath/Black Sabbath ending!! Great Job fella's!!

The "Kid" made the video ! His enthusiasm is that of Ozzy during California Jam . He reminded me , that we all need to keep it fun , loose and exciting when performing .

[@blandishblaze]

All of ya were spot on! You know every one of these guys cruised around in high school in their muscle cars with the sabbath cranked on the 6x9s!

[@xmetldrumr9913]

I don't know what I love more, the LP double cut away, or that Franken-kit. I miss playing this kind of music. Now a days I'm in a group with a baby grand and 2 saxophones. Jazz is cool but Sabbath is fun.

[@thesnowdogs]

Thanks! We're into jazz fusion too...The drummers Dad was a jazz drummer and got us into Weather Report and Billy Cobham etc. 🙂

[@grasshoppa666]

Great jam! Amazing how good the mix is.

[@boise2Talay7886]

for not practicing performing this tune in advance, that's a truly great rendition. My first concert was Black Sabbath on Halloween 1976 and the openting acts were Boston and Heart. Beyond seeing amazing live performances featuring a ton of great tunes, the tickets were $4.50.

[@davidvasquez8658]

I remember the 4.50 tix. My first concert & I missed it cuz a guy gave me a red!

[@rougarou722]

I’m willing to wager that this combo rehearses regularly, including rehearsing this song. What you think one of the guys said,”hey dudes we have never practiced Sabbath, but let’s play fairies have boots”? 😂

He’a got that Bill Ward swing thing down. His kit sounds nice as well. The vocals sound good! Really liked the kid coming in singing along. This was great! I always felt like early Sabbath was a jazz and swing band with distortion. LOL!
