Guitar Teacher REACTS: "War Pigs" Black Sabbath LIVE OZZFEST (EXPLICIT)

[@kyhughes12]

My guitar tutor once said "Toni Iommi has wrote every riff you're going to think of, and that's ok". Great video. I got chills listening to this.

[@jkb1O5]

Haha, that’s great

[@vickvick8556]

He actually said all riffs were written. They just played them..

[@bonzo319]

[@Greda316]

I love how much this guy loves Black Sabbath

[@thegracienetwork7847]

When it comes to the start of a musical journey, the siren of War Pigs is about as good as it gets

[@Guitargate]

Correct.

[@Fnberg744]

Grand Funk has a song that starts out the same way

[@foxbodyblues6709]

One of the best rock songs ever written. And still so very relevant today.

[@book3100]

For me, it's the bell, thunder and rain at the beginning of black Sabbath. Not saying the siren isn't fkn awesome, but i get the chills for the Black Sabbath song.

[@scottydog62]

Its the air raid siren , that's what makes it so harrowing and hair raising, the song is about evil politicians and dictators making War. Black Sabbath created some awesome music that they had nothing to reach from really, there was no one like them before, but the lyrics as well, written mainly from Geezer Butler, some very heavy thinking from young people back in the day, the incomparable percussion of Bill Ward, the incomparable bass playing of Geezer Butler and already mentioned Tony Iommi, and that unique vocals of Ozzy of course. The only thing the tempo is a little too quick in this live version, I think the song really speaks better when it's slowed down just a bit, could go a bit quicker than the studio version but in my opinion this live version is a little too jacked up, but what do I know look at the crowd haha so Electric

[@stiutk1220]

"Every little thing he plays is a riff" best description of Tony Iommi

[@Guitargate]

Correct

[@JulieorNick]

Iommi will put more solid riffs in one song than some bands do in their entire careers

[@markr.devereux3385]

INTRO to SHOCKWAVE. Used once and thrown away. What?? Please can I have just one of those that are bouncing around in your head. The man seemingly pulls them directly from the metal ether and that's that. I WISH!!!!❤️❤️

[@graemecouch5010]

[@thesongremainsthesame76]

For real man, he honestly has so many random 'throwaway' riffs in sabbath songs that could be used as the main riff in many other bands songs and be a hit!

[@bmartin4320]

I know right 😂 I wish I was older and could have gone to these shows.

[@Primus-ue4th]

I got goosebumps when he said ozzy screamed and the sirens went off

[@timwhiting6721]

Geezer butler was a monster on bass and those pounding drums from ward and iommi and his rediculus guitar and ozzy's chilling voice.

[@thrash2groove]

Bill Ward was paramount to Sabbath's 70s sound and surely deserves the recognition he doesn't get enough of.

[@yarsivad000.5]

But all four were.

[@wintyrqueen]

To this day Geezer’s bass is the single loudest thing I have ever heard in my life. First time I saw them with Ozzy they opened with the trio of War Pigs, Into the Void, & Under the Sun… nothing comes close to how mindblowingly heavy that was

[@rickmckee8270]

I agree the bass was thundering when I saw them at the 1999 reunion in LA I was right in front of Geezer in the front row,and it was the loudest show I had ever attended.,and my ears rang for three days after.

[@blackwatchmei9374]

It has to be loud to be heard over Iommi’s 8 x Laney TI100 amps he has as his live rig. Just massive sound, all around. The original Doom/Stoner band.

[@dumptyhumpty8883]

Sabbath swings. Bill Ward had jazz roots. Heavy music with a groove. Can’t be beat.

[@dosedwav]

That’s why bands like Pantera and Gojira are so good, they’ve really blended that groove element into their music, some real evolution of grooving heavy music!!

[@harrysachs2274]

Poor bill ward. Dude is out to lunch nowadays. Iommi was the one to escape unscathed.

[@KurtGAndersen]

Agreed! Bill Ward really has got the jazzy and bluesy swing - and that adds an extra element to Sabbaths sound. No discredit to the other drummers Sabbath have had such as Vinnie Appice and Tommy Clufetos - great drummers but that little swing thing Bill has they dont.

[@nickbenke3306]

Before this music came out - the only work for drummers was Jazz gigs! Same for John Bonham who was also a Monster on the drums!

[@andywitch666]

You're absolutely right sir!

[@michaelthomas9991]

This is a great video. Your excitement matches mine, and you smile the entire time as you watch the video. You have that true appreciation for Sabbath that makes one feel like a kid, no matter their age. I still get chills when I hear live Sabbath, and I’ve been listening since 1970. As a grown man, I cried the first time I saw them live from the front row in 1975. No words can describe that sound, and I’ve never heard a recording that accurately recreates that devastating blast from the amps and sound system. Nobody can touch what they did 52 years on, nor will they in the future. Those four guys created something unique and lasting. Only God himself could lead them to develop those incredible sounds and songs with the power they managed to harness. Thank you for posting this sweet, inspiring video!

[@100Aces]

But imagine being told theres a Tornado WARNING....then to hear the War Pigs SIREN? Spooky AF!

Geezer + Bill : the absolute reference rythmic section. Cannot get any better.

When I was in the military, I would occasionally blast War Pigs at full volume while driving past the General’s HQ. Fun times.

[@NoLegalPlunder]

What a band. They’ve meant so much to me over the years it’s crazy. Tony and Geezer are unequivocal geniuses, and Ozzy and Bill are no slouches either. But far more important is how the band is greater than the sum of their parts. They are storytellers with sound.

[@michaelwaugh4299]

[@coryackerman5151]

It’s great to see someone who teaches music hearing/seeing the music their talking about be nearly speechless during a performance. Black Sabbath isn’t just a band or music, it’s an experience to be witnessed and appreciated.

[@krockatnik]

I saw them on Nova Rock 2014. A line-up so packed it puts a lot of festivals to shame. Seen a lot of great bands, and just on Sunday afternoon/evening i went directly from Off Spring to Soungarden to Black Sabbath. Lot of great music throughout the weekend, but boy did Black Sabbath show everyone how it's done. It almost seemed like everyone else were a local band :D Just a whole other level. I was in tears of pure joy and the power i recived. I doubt i will ever see a performance so epic again. Truly one of the gereatest bends tro ever do it!

[@vandals4873]

It's awesome to see folks that know the technical music part explain Black Sabbath. My favorite band, always will be. Junior's Eyes is my favorite jam to air drum along to!

[@bingebob603]

Bill Ward is in my top 5 all time. Bill in his prime was like a freight train, unstoppable. Even here just powerhouse!

[@Magik1369]

Epic indeed. It's difficult to nail Tony's sound on that Em riff. Takes a knack from playing it a hundred times. Tony is an epic riff creator. Huge fuc#ing tone and addictive riffs and memes. This song changed my life too. My neighborhood clan called ourselves the War Pigs and would jam this tune for hours in my parents garage. Keg party and all that. 1979/1980 thereabouts.

[@ironhorse1074]

Great video. Your smiling as you explain and play the techniques that Sabbath use made me smile so thank you. Iommi's riffs are still epic, 50 years on. Geezer's bass lines just motor whilst shaking your insides and as for Bill Ward, we'll, the hammer of the God's. Did I forget Ozzie? Simply a true rock legend.

I’ve felt this way since 1970 when I first heard them. They were and always will be the best, most devastating band in musical history. They’re overlooked, under appreciated and ignored, yet they defined metal. Period, the best. Anyway, thank you for creating and sharing your video on KZbin. It is awesome.

Black Sabbath was one of the only trios that I have ever heard that doesn't lose any power from the guitarist goes to play leads. So many other bands get instantly thinner in sound but that never happened with Black Sabbath. Tribute to Geezer, Bill and how Tony plays and that massive, brain crushing power he has.

Black Sabbath did it for me back in the early 1970's after I went to their concert in November 1974 at the Horden pavilion here in Sydney Australia...and....the support band was someone we had never heard of before....AC/DC....they opened with some kid dressed for school with a red SG reaching up to his Marshall stack and started playing She's Got Balls!!

It was 1974 for me when I first heard sabbath, they immediately became my favorite band and still are.

[@richardallen4552]

completely agree with you about bill ward. his absence is the reason i didn't go to final tour show in my town. i fell in love with sabbath's music around age 10 or 11, An older kid in my neighborhood was a guitarist and had a band that played in his basement. wasn't allowed down there but I used to hang around his house and listen to them practice Black Sabbath songs like Electric Funeral, Paranoid, War Pigs and Iron Man. Since 76 up to Ozzy's Blizzard of Oz I loved all their music but then stopped listening to them for over 20 years then revisited their albums. I understand now why I liked and still like their music so much. there is something so special about the 4 of them together that's impossible to replicate. For that reason I refrained from attending the last tour because Bill Ward wasn't there, it's just not Black Sabbath without him.

[@krzlwzl]

I heard them live too and i totally agree. I never heard a guitar sound more intense then Tony Iommi´s. Theres something uniquely powerfull about his style. I describe it as a claw reaching out from the speakers directly gripping you by your intestines.

April 4, 1971, Alexandria Roller Rink (Alexandria, VA). I had just turned 16, and had never been to a concert before. After waiting for some band I'd never heard of get through playing (Humble Pie, with Frampton), my life changed. The show opened with War Pigs.

I saw Sabbath for the first time during their reunion tour and I remember that Geezer was playing the bass SO hard that I had the feeling that my pants were flapping around my legs. I got so choked up seeing their greatness live for the first time.

My dad took me to Download festival when I was 15 to watch Sabbath, it blew my mind! SO GOOD!!!

Randy Rhoads was it for me. That tone on Flying High Again just became ingrained in my mind. That solo is just a thing of beauty.
