I keep hearig amazing things about the remasters but ive never seen em around. the quadrophonic mix of the paranoid album is meant to be mind blowing

i havent heard it but i reckon it will kind of take the edge away from the original.the fact the mix is shit keeps that authentic 70's feel to it.

61. Who is that figure on the cover of the first Black Sabbath album? 61. Who is that figure on the cover of the first Black Sabbath album?


It's an unknown woman. It is not Ozzy, and there's no evidence that it's Bill Ward's first wife in front of their cottage as some have also claimed. According to Pete Sarfas, she was an actor who was hired for the photos. After the album had been released she met the band. There was supposedly an interesting story about her, but the Black Sabbath Appreciation Society folded before that story made it to print. There is no information on who the person who was on the Paranoid album cover.
