She's spot on, Sabbath is HEAVILY jazz and blues influenced. Anyone told you different is crazy.

I know, people are just wrong, this one the solo is blues based for sure, the main riff is heavy rock and the outro is classical. They were influenced by all kinds of music and it shows!

[@albertjohnston9374]

If you haven’t heard it yet check out Megalomania from this same album. Criminally underrated track.

[@jasonrichardson1208]

THRILL OF IT ALL has that kick-ass riff that plays against Bill's drum groove!

[@davelanciani-dimaensionx]

The whole Sabbotage album is brilliant. It's my favorite Sabbath album. So angry.

Bill Ward's drumming on this song may be the best of his career. Probably only Supernaut compares.

[@Mike-kv5pl]

INTO THE VOID by Black Sabbath is definitely one of their very best songs.

[@lancecornell9978]

Light this one up T. It would be on my request list too

[@mikeg.4211]

Totally agree Into the Void. Have the lyrics handy also.

[@davidburrows4801]

[@eidetecker]

I love how at 05:30 at the "Woman-child of love's creation..." Tasha starts swaying as if acting out the part, not even knowing the lyrics, just feelin' it. That's so spontaneously perfect. And she's not wrong about feeling the blues in their sound as they started as a 12 bar blues band called Earth.

[@spazimdam]

Great song! The second half is such a departure from "metal" which Sabbath often is associated with. It is funky, bluesy, jazzy; very exotic sounding. Awesome arranging and songwriting here man.

[@mikekeeler6362]

Tony never thought that were metal

[@spazimdam]

@@mikekeeler6362 Indeed. I've seen in interviews where he and Ozzy both say "we were hard rock". They didn't even like the label "metal". I suppose I shouldn't have mentioned metal, and called it what it really was: hard rock. That's what I and all my mates called it back in the 70s.

Black Sabbath started out as a heavy blues / jazz band who wrote "scary" music. Their debut album is very bluesy. In fact, if you like blues you should totally check out the track "Warning" from that first album. Their second album had the trippy "Planet Caravan" and Bill Ward's acoustic drum jam "Rat Salad". Master of Reality had several chill acoustic interludes. All of their 1970s albums had really pretty songs mixed in with the heaviness.

[@DHIX33333]

I had a debate with someone who i sister that metal did not have it's roots in African-American music. I guess he never realized that metal derives from the Blues. He should listen to Sabbath.

[@davidmcdonagh7756]

1975 is when this song was released on the Sabotage album. Electric Funeral is a great one.

You finally got around to my favourite Sabbath song. I bought this on purple vinyl when I it first got released as a single.

[@usg-647]

Tasha near the end, "they're very bluesy" - very much so. And jazz too, at least in the beat, and definitely Bill ward's drums"So well done you guys, and LOVED getting you honest reaction & musical talk & appreciation.

[@loudog2326]

Bill Ward's Drum's and Geezer Butler's Bass and The Guitar Riff's of Tony Iommi and Ozzy's Voice !!! Man Fantastic !!! The Sabotage Album Released in July 1975 !!!

[@dconley1964]

A great song after this would be "The Thrill of It All". Sabbath does Funk.

[@greekpapi]

After almost 40 years, I STILL get goosebumps when the second half of the song starts......!!!

[@keithoday9896]

Really enjoy watching you and your wife react to all the great music your discovering. I am 61 years old and grew up in Southern California listening to all these bands your discovering like Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, and alike ; You two need to lay " I'll take care of you" which is a phenomenal blues done by Joe Bonamassa with Beth Hart on Vocals. I GUARANTEE you will both be blown away. There's a live version on youtube. Keep discovering the music of our past; and by the way HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

[@amysson5151]

Love the way your wife grooves to the music. You are blessed, my man. God bless.

[@lunaticloon5638]

Black Sabbath can take two, seemingly different melodies, and mesh them into one complete song. They do it so well with so many of there songs. You can't get the full feel for the song just by listening to the first minute of a Black Sabbath song; you need to listen to the entire song and then make a judgement. Really enjoyed your video! Thumbs Up! I'm a big fan of Black Sabbath and Ozzy!

[@ujjaya1]

Check "Junior Eyes" or "Air dance" if yoy wanna be surprized . It was a very creative band.

Tony Iommi (lead guitar) is the genius who wrote all of their music, and who invented metal, doom and thrash. He teamed up with bass player Geezer Butler, who he had great chemistry with, and who wrote the lyrics. I suggest Into the Void, Children of the Grave, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Air Dance (for some actual metal jazz).

[@mikeg.4211]

❤️

[@HammeredReactions]

Snowblind is my favorite Sabbath tune!

[@EdJacobson77]

This Song Is Dope. Sabotage Is My Favorite Black Sabbath Album And So Underrated. I Think Sometimes Regular Black Sabbath Fan Never Even Listens To This Amazing Album.

[@andrewgarin2486]

"Looking for Today" and "Spiral Architect' from Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was a new 'awakening' if you could say.....very more emotional and musical Sabbath...just couldn't stop listening when I heard them 30 years ago....Ozzy just singing so good on these tracks it really is a joy to listen to them now.

You really want to hear Sabbath ? Look for a band called " EARTH ". That's pre - Sabbath before they changed their name . You see , Sabbath started off as a blues band with Hendrix & Cream being their huge influences . Even in this one album you can already hear Sabbath riffs & licks . 🤙

[@fatboynick4104]

It's songs like this and many other Sabbath songs why they are considered the godfathers of heavy metal. They took blues and jazz added Tony Iommi's doomy guitar sound and style added in Ozzy's very unique singing and came up with something so different for its era. I first heard Sabbath in 1970 and they are still my favorite band. Their first 6 albums are flawless.

[@timothyherring3211]

I won't ever stop listening to the music I grew up with. BUT, because they stopped making my favorite rock ( ass kicking southern rock and heavy metal ) I have been listening to more modern day country music because it's the new southern rock. BUT I still jump on the old favorites from my childhood.

While the Ozzy and Dio eras of Sabbath are the most iconic, don't sleep on the Ian Gillian and Tony Martin eras. A few songs: "Zero The Hero" "Trashed" "Devil & Daughter" "Valhalla" "Heaven In Black"

[@jasonpool9530]

This is how reactions are supposed to be done and huge sabbath fan as well

[@GrannyMetalheadTV]

Yes Tasha, they do have a lot of blues influence in their music. Like a lot of English bands/artists, they LOVED blues music because at one point, it was easier to get American blues records than American rock n roll records. Plus American blues artists toured England a lot back in the 50's & 60's but rock n roll artists not so much. Great reaction. 🤘Rock On!🤘

[@AstroXeno]

Ozzy's first solo live album (The first one he released anyway) is called Speak of the Devil, on which he opens his set with a really kick ass version of this song. Meanwhile, Sabotage (which is where this song originally comes from) is one of their most underrated albums. Symptom of the Universe is the only song off it that they ever play out, but other outstanding tracks are "Hole in the Sky", "Thrill Of It All", "Megalomaina" and "The Writ".

[@ZalMoxis]

It's wonderful this great music can cross all boundaries.... these great 70's bands were meant to be enjoyed by everyone... glad you're enjoying the exploration trip into your own mind too... just wait until you get to YES, ELP, and King Crimson. All this wonderful music is very organic... truer to your heart...

[@josephschulte1073]

Might I suggest taking a 14 minute trip through the amazingness of A bit of finger/Sleeping village/Warning? You know what? F it, just fire up the b side of the debut album and roll with Evil woman(Crow cover) Sleeping village/Warning(Warning was a ansley dunbar song from '67. awesome in it's own right). Evil woman isn't on the north american album, it was replaced by wicked world. In all honesty, the sabbath songs you should check out are all of them.

[@TheAdventuresofTNT]

Lol

[@blacksablives]

@@TheAdventuresofTNT wicked world is great too! warning, wicked world - bluesy numbers i highly recommend (if you like wicked world/warning) to check out some of their live songs from 69 that were never recorded/released on the LP: the blue coat man (performed also at Lausanne Electric Circus, '70) & let me love you baby

[@diceymaan]

Tasha is correct about the Bluesy! Black Sabbath has very deep roots in blues and Iommi is a master of pentatonic scales. So even if Sabbath is the beginning of metal so to say, it doesn't mean that they aren't bluesy. Here are some Black Sabbath recommendations: A National Acrobat, Fairies Wear Boots, Snowblind, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sabra Cadabra, Hand of Doom, The Writ, Junior's Eyes, Megalomania, Into the Void, Lord of This World, and Sweet Leaf.

[@RM-ks8pp]

This song is from their album titled Sabotage. Many other great tracks off this killer album like "The Writ". Maybe someone will request it.. Peace...

Drum fill wise, one of the toughest songs to play. Bill Ward is my favorite no matter who is more technical. Props for my man who was clearly into this. If you could only know what it felt like to experience this at 14 - no matter the year or decade, just to hear this when you are young enough to have it branded into your DNA. I feel very lucky for that. This was Ozzy's prime for vocal range, power and clearness. One of the best guitars sounds ever - and Geezer is Geezer. He never needed to improve because he was always so good, but the other 3 kept rising and rising right up to the (1978) end, as far as I'm concerned.
