I haven't seen a poll of this here, so figured I'd make one. Quite similar to the Priest poll. Obviously I didn't throw in compilations, demos, live albums, and all of that stuff.



I'll still need to think about the answer.


Poll will be up in a bit.
 
I went with Master of Reality, but, really, Black Sabbath has like 8 albums that are all the same level of awesome.
 
I went with S/t, Master of Reality and Heaven and Hell.


Those three generally get the most plays.
 
Sabotage, the most intelligent album the band has done.

Not that they've put out any unintelligent ones (although a lot of the Martin-era ones come pretty fuckin close).
 
and pretty much the only album I can listen to by them anymore.

sabotage
master of reality
born again
cross purposes
heaven and hell

You're the first person I've heard of who ranks four Sabbath albums with different singers the highest. After Master Of Reality, Cross Purposes would be my choice though, I love Tony Martin.
 
Haven't voted yet, can't decide on a number 1 favorite. It's a very close tie between the S/T and Sabotage. I'd rank the albums by vocalist:

Ozzy:

Black Sabbath/Sabotage
Master of Reality
Volume 4
Paranoid
Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Technical Ecstasy
Never Say Die

Dio:

Dehumanizer
The Devil You Know
Heaven and Hell
Mob Rules

Tony Martin:

Eternal Idol
Cross Purposes
TYR
Headless Cross
Forbidden

At a loss to figure out where to put Born Again. Didn't count Seventh Star.
 
I hate Changes, one of the few bad Black Sabbath softies, but yet it's the most famous one. I'd take Solitude or Planet Caravan over it any day.
