Me too, on a Sabbath binge I mean. Now that the super deluxe box sets been dropping, I've bought 'em one by one, those live discs are worth the price alone (Walpurgis kicks so much ass!). This demo is also really good, the guitar sound was already very much Black Sabbath, as were Ozzy's vocals.

It's a Polish band called SBB. You can easily hear the bass player's distinctive tone on that overdriven distorted bass. They obviously were influenced by Black Sabbath, hence what sounds like a birth of a Sabbath riff is more of an homage to a pre-existing Sabbath riff.

This is great. Lots of people don't even know that Tony Iommi, was on the first Jethro Tull album released, and they were and pretty much are a jazz-fusion band. Tony always credited his Ideas, for being on that first Tull album. Plus when he left Tull and, went back to "Earth"(Sabbath), he brought back the work ethic which he learned from that first Tull album to Ozzy, Geezer and, Ward, to show the fellas what they were lacking to be the best!!!

Tony Iommi was in Jethro Tull for 2 weeks and miming guitar at the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus video filmed in 68 never playing on any album.
