Despite having such an iconic vocalist like Ian Gillan, it's the most Sabbath sounding album outside of the Ozzy ones and arguably more so than the last two Ozzy ones. Heaven and Hell is a great...

Fair enough. I agree, this will be the last go round and I fully expect '13' to reflect a kind of bookend. I mean, 'The End Of The Beginning' is a deliberate reference to 'Black Sabbath'...

Perhaps. He should probably should retire, but I'm not sure I entirely agree that it's just nostalgia. For me at least, he really is THE voice of Black Sabbath with second place going to the one off...

It's always worse on the way home. Glad you enjoyed our fair land and what a great reason to visit!

P.S. Yes Ozzy really sounded flat on Electric Funeral. My theory to add to your tuning one...

Electric Funeral as well as Methademic was played show 1 Melbourne. I noticed you included in your setlist, but said it was dropped in your roundup. Just saying.

Ah, my mistake I thought the Digipack was a deluxe edition because they weren't included in the Jewel Case version.
I see they re-released a deluxe edition in 2010. As stated doesn't seem to be...

Contains a mini poster and a guitar (or bass) pick.

I think the title is the key to that. When I heard that title, I and wondered if it would reference something on the first album or around that time. When I heard about the sound effects on the last...

I would say, rather than ripping themselves off it's completely deliberate. It sounds to me too obvious of an reference to be anything else. My sense is this will likely be the last Black Sabbath...

Buffalo were a great Aussie band. Amazing vocalist, who's still out doing stuff.
I think Budgie came to a little more prominence in the latter-day metal/hard rock mainstream after Metallica covered...

1. Sabotage
2. Black Sabbath
3. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
4. Paranoid
5. Master Of Reality
6. Technical Ecstacy
7. Vol 4
8. Never Say Die

I agree that Symptom is his most ferocious, wouldn't personally say it's his greatest, but very full on and impressive...suits the song. I'd like to reiterate that although not the most popular of...

Yes, you're right...Ozzy had a strange but appealing half swallowed quality to his voice on the first album and a little bit on the 'Paranoid' album too.
Sleeping Village is a great example.

The Writ - such venom and anger.
Sabotage overall is fantastic.

Also love Hand Of Doom.

Well it looks like film to me and most off-site stuff for TV in the 70s was shot 16mm. TV quality videotape was was way too cumbersome back then. I suspect the negatives would be long gone/lost by...

I think you guys will find it's 'Dead Rat's Innards'...just saying.

Cockney Rhyming Slang - Radio Rental = Mental

Really looking forward to hearing 'Apache'
:smirk:

^^^ Yes I think Ozzy was joking. Songs by The Shadows, not 'shadow' (obscure) songs. As much as older Sabbath fans would love it, it wouldn't make much sense doing obscure songs at a festival gig.

:confused: Huh? Sounds like you agree, not disagree.

Just like to add, Gene Simmons did not make the devil horns, at least not deliberately. He basically did the 'I Love You' sign-language symbol....

Yeah I just saw this. I guess it's fair enough...still a shit sandwich.

I'm not going to weigh in on who is to blame, not going to automatically blame Sharon Osbourne or consider Bill a whiner…because none of us know the full story and there's a lot of assuming going on....

I actually think in this day and age it's cool, impressive and a minor miracle that under-wraps info has remained under wraps.

Subject to change...
