Black Sabbath

[aMetalhead1966]

Sabotage...with Mob Rules a gnat's hair second!!

[achilles]

every ozzy era one a gem

[Dead Planet]

I'm not surprised that Heaven and Hell is running away with this poll but I was a fan long before Dio showed up and I choose 'Master of Reality' with 'Sabotage' a close second.....

[All Nights Reserved]

Master of Reality = METAL!

[Scandinavia]

HEADLESS CROSS!!!!

[Faust]

Very difficult to pick only one :

1/ Heaven & Hell

2/ Headless Cross

3/ Seventh Star

 

(Live Evil is also a killer live album)

[reverend jennings]

Born Again

[Faron]

Sabotage and Heaven And Hell

 

Classics

[Glen]

Heaven & Hell...............

 

followed by Mob Rules - the Dio albums are way better than Ozzy stuff.

[Captain Howdy]

Master of reality

 

Ozzy IS Sabbath, anything else isnt!

[heaven&hell]

Master of reality

 

Ozzy IS Sabbath, anything else isnt!

 

 

DIO>Ozzy

[Captain Howdy]

In a fantasy world maybe!

[heaven&hell]

In the real world.

I've been on a big Sabbath kick lately. I'm currently playing all of their releases in order from their first album all the way to Cross Purposes (minus Dehumanizer). Very interesting just hearing the progression/declines/improvements/changes from album to album. I'd have to say my favorites would be...

 

Ozzy era: "Volume 4"

Dio era: toss up on this, I'd love cheat and pick "Live Evil" but both H&H and Mob Rules are equally great

Gillan era: Born Again (...and what an era! )

Martin era: "Eternal Idol" slightly over "Headless Cross"

Been doing the exact same thing Rick, aswell as filling in the holes in my Sabbath collection. I also got the new 'Rules Of Hell' box set (really cheap), as I didn't have the 'Live Evil' album. The new remastered versions of 'H&H', 'Mob Rules' and 'Dehumanizer' sound awesome.

 

Anyways::

Ozzy era: 'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath'

Dio era: 'Heaven And Hell'

Gillian era: 'Born Again' - not a lot of choice here, but not a bad album

Martin era: 'Headless Cross', but 'Tyr' is also really good

[Evil Rick]

Oops, I just realized I had Ian's last name spelled wrong. It's supposed to be Gillan, not Gillian, as it is incorrectly stated on the Brutal Metal site.

Born Again.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

I hope your joking

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Umm no...actually I'm not. I love the album.

 

 

To be honest, we can`t all like the same things

That's true. But the Castle Remaster of Born Again is truly a gem IMO.

I have that Castle remaster but it's still an average album IMO.

The mix just ruins it for me even though there are 4 or 5 decent songs.

"Whatcha gonna be whatcha gonna be brotha... ZERO THE HERO

Don'cha wanna be don'cha wanna be brotha... ZERO THE HERO"

 

 

That's the song that the notes in the booklet claim was ripped off by GNR with "Paradise City".

Say what? Those songs sound nothing alike. Who wrote the liner notes, a crack baby?

The beginning riff of the song is very similar to what they have going on in Paradise City, but as to it being ripped off, I just don't know about that. Of course imitation is the most sincere form of flattery or something stupid like that.

 

By the way, Gillen Gillan sings his ass off on this cd!

Indeed he does.
