Yeah, and do you have a picture?

[QUOTE=rippa32]Really? Mine doesn't. Do you have an original vinyl pressing or something?[/QUOTE]No. It's just the normal album. Under the "Notes" part is where they write Gillian.

How come no cheesy name for the Sabbath thread? You guys could probably think of something decent. :p

'Rock and Metal's Black Sabbath Thread' seems alright.

Black Sabbath are truly awesome,the original stoner rock band. I agree that after ozzy left the band just became to 80's and lost the groove and a lot of the soul that they had in the 70's. Maybe it was a good thing though as "Never Say Die" and "Technical Ecstacy" were weak compared to early material. Volume 4 started it for me and my favorite album is probably Master of Reality. Nothing beats the power, rawness and sludge of Sabbath. Huge influence on hard rock and metal bands ala soundgarden and alice in chains.

They are not "Stoner Rock". And the 80's stuff is great as is Technical Ecstacy(never heard Never Say Die!). Give that stuff another listen you might enjoy it.

Sabbath pwned in the 80's.

Sabbath pwn in 2005 Like OmG!|!





i wish :upset:

A recent interview with Ozzy said that he's no longer interested in doing a new Sabbath album.

Which I guess is a good thing, considering his voice is really bad these days.

Huzzah there is hope for new sabbath yet, no offence to ozzy or anything but...

i wonder who they will get to sing, i hope its someone new that they havnt had before

Iommi is working with Dio on 2 new songs for a Sabbath box set for the Dio years, its doubtful that it'll turn into a full album and tour project though :(

Meh too be honest i could live without another Dio era, they should get someone new, younger...and taller

Cool to see that there will be a Dio box set though

My thoughts exactly

The Dio era was one of the best though...

Luckily Dio is perfectly happy with his solo band at the moment, which is why he won't be making a full return to Sabbath.

To be fair, seeing as Sabbath has been around as the 'classic' line-up for the past 10 years or so, I think it'd be best if Iommi decided to call it a day, and lay the Sabbath name to rest, rather than go through the process of finding a new singer, writing new songs, recording the new songs etc...it'd take them at least a year to do, when both Iommi and Geezer could be touring with their solo bands.

Im not a huge fan of their solo careers myself so I hope they stick with Sabbath personally. Maybe Iommi should get David Coverdale like he was going to for Seventh Star.

Sorry, i couldnt get the pics to show, anybody know why?

The pics worked fine for me.

Give me 5 mins...

Edit: Ok.

I just ran upstairs to check my vinyl copy of We Sold Our Soul...and what you have there is sides 3 and 4 of the collection (its a double album, sides 3 and 4 are the second record)

I know that the original cd pressing of We Sold Our Soul was limited to just one cd, so maybe you picked up the second half of it?

Who knows, but I've never seen it before so its either a bootleg, or a rareity.

That original one CD version was all of both records with a couple of songs taken out. I dont know al of the excluded ones but Im pretty sure Laguna Sunrise is. What you have there A Guy is very hard to find, I wonder if its worth anything.

Well I got Never Say Die! DVD for christmas and its a great DVD, shame about the quality. And too bad about Ozzy being shoved to the side. Also I was quite dissapointed that Rock 'n' Roll doctor didnt start with that shred like lead break or that Embryo wasn't played before Children Of The Grave, but all in all a good DVD.

Laguna Sunrise is on it. I got it for $3 so that'd be pretty sweet if it was actually worth anything.

Yes yours does, Im saying the original CD release (not yours) had Laguna Sunrise excluded. You should go to [url]www.black-sabbath.com[/url] and email the guy who runs it (Joe Siegler) theres a very good chance he'll know about your CD as well as if its worth anything.

Merry christmas yall...although it isnt christmas anymore

so shall i order MOB rules or heaven and hell next?

I havn't heard Mob Rules but I have heard Heaven and Hell is better.

Meh ill go with Heaven and hell then, atleast i know the title track is awesome

[QUOTE=shadow_stalker]Merry christmas yall...although it isnt christmas anymore

Both are excellent choices. I have both albums, 'Mob Rules' is a bit more upbeat...while 'Heaven & Hell' is a bit darker. Probably get 'Heaven & Hell.'

But everyone dismisses 'Mob Rules' which is a kick-*** album.

He was probably talking about Machine Head.

Does anyone on here have any bootlegs from the Dio/Gillian era Sabbath? I'm interested in hearing how they interpreted Ozzy songs.

For the Dio era, get the Live Evil album.

I have Gillan singing War Pigs somewhere...
