    Goodbye, Ozzy :(

    Two of my favorite Sabbath songs:

    Zeitgeist, 2013 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ofrYzMU6cw Planet Caravan, 1970 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm2N2nHqITY

    They invented so many things here, and Ozzy is the blueprint of a heavy metal singer hundreds of people copied decades to come after this one.

    N.I.B. for me. Greatest love song of all time. https://youtu.be/NsXEb-NOs88

    Changes. Saddest song of all time. Can't listen to it without crying. https://youtu.be/dOz_dLmpT9A

    Paranoid. I love the Sabbath version, but Randy crushes it with Ozzy in 1981.

    Only 3 years with Ozzy, and Randy is still top 10 in the minds of many a metal guitarist today. What an insane impact.

    These are both with Ronnie James Dio, are they not?

    The greatest heavy metal performance to me. Sounding so heavy 55 years ago with primitive PA and a crappy recording, I’m amazed every time I watch it.

    This is wild, thank you for sharing. An I agree with you, something this heavy in the year 19 seven zero was probably out of another universe.
