Best Sabbath record

[TD]

Since I've been ragging on Ozzy in another thread, lets remember the good ol' days when he was the lead singer for Black Sabbath, and let us vote on our favorite Sabbath record.

I think the release of Master Of Reality is the best thing that ever happened to the music industry.
Paranoid is a very, very close second.

I voted for Vol.. 4. But I like them all. Even the last two releases, which most "fans" never even bought. There is a riff in the song "Gypsy" (TE) that is priceless, and the song "Johnny Blade" (NSD)is terrific.

 

[Moonwitch]

I couldn't decide- theyre all fucking good.

 

[SweatingBullets]

I chose Paranoid, it was my first, and still my favorite. It's good to see someone who likes Ozzy on this board.

Paranoid

 

[SlaughterofSoul]

Black Sabbath!

 

[Stoner Sioux]

Hey don't forget Sabotage....that album is fucking killer....especially the song "Hole In The Sky"

 

[AjDeath]

I would have voted but "this action cannot be performed" so I will write in Black Sabbath Black Sabbath, did they ever write anything better than this? I love all of their albums with Ozzy, but this is truly the best, and not to mention groundbreaking.

 

[TD]

I hope we can get someone to vote for Technical Ecstacy and Never Say Die, how bad ass would it be to see all of a bands albums voted upon???? That would prove how bad ass they were (as if they need validation.)

Sabotage! Wow, that's my favorite!

Cheerz!

If I could write in on my ballot I'd say Heaven and Hell. I know it's not Ozzy era stuff, but man that little elf Ronnie James Dio rocked the his-ouse as frontman for Sabbath.

I agree TD, Ronny James Dio did kick ass when he and black sabbath got togather, I hope to see Ronny James Dio play again to me he looks like a troll or a elf.

Those two records with Dio are two of the most criminally underrated albums of all time. They did really well when they came out, but have been completely forgotten thanks to 3things basically:
-Dio is a fucking cheeseball
-Tony Iommi ran sabbath into the ground w/ bad singers and bad albums after dio (literally and figuratively)
-and all the reunion hoopla and ozzfest have made people forget about those albums.

ps: Mob Rules is probably one of my top 3 all time songs. That song is just fucking awesome.

-Jono-

with all new songs!
