I have a vivid recall of the first time I heard Black Sabbath. It was the fall of 1970 and my buddies and I were camping on a Friday night. One of them had an a track tape of Black Sabbath’s first album and he cranked it up and played the whole thing.  We weren’t sure exactly what we were listening to, but we knew we liked it.  RIP Ozzy.

Big childhood memories

Not gonna lie, Sabbath was never super high on my radar, but damn if "War Pigs" isn't a top 5 rock song of all time.  RIP, Mr. Osbourne.

Live music  is not my first choice for hearing the best performance but this version of War Pigs back in 1970 is unreal. Everyone is killing it, especially Bill Ward, and the audio quality is terrific.

RIP Oz

i celebrate his entire catalogue. i've even come around on those solo albums. 

read his book earlier this year and was surprised to learn that he didn't write any of the sabbath lyrics.

I believe Geezer did if I’m not mistaken.

Still on steady rotation in my gym list. Brother was a huge Sabbath fan so went to bed on top bunk many nights with him spinning some BS LPs. RIP Ozzy. You were a major part of the soundtrack of my early teens.

I first learned of Ozzy in junior high. We were all talking in the football locker room about how bad ass and hard AC/DC was.

Buddy brought in his older brother’s tape of Blizzard. He said fuck AC/DC, you wanna hear hard, listen to this. And pressed play on I Don’t Know. Holy shit.

Seminal music moment for me. There were a couple that changed me forever. That was def one.
