Welcome to Gaia! ::

hell yeah sabbath rule!
they were part of my childhood and still an active part of my CD collection.

sabbath with ozzy isn't the same as sabbath with dio....both are great, but ozzy fits for sabbath more....even though children of the sea is my fav sabbath song....but its iommi that makes sabbath kick a**

Thats pretty sick, My first song Was Iron Maidens "the trooper" but my first bass song on sabbath would be "Evil Woman"

I love the bass In Black Sabbath, Its so solid, fast, multi-functional, powerfull and really gives in my opinion, Black Sabbath a darker inside. It seems like even when there playing a song like "The Wizerd" or "paranoid" the bass always gives this notion that it is not focusing on darkness but the darkness is coated with everything else in the band. Geezer butler is a tribute to bassisr

I also love Tonys guitar playing. In there earlyer albums, you can hear the strong blues influance and similarity. He stepped the blues playing speed higher for his soloing but with blues, and in my perseption hints of classical (don't ask)
