Best description I've heard of the difference between Ozzy & Dio (which may be from Tony Iommi himself, but I don't remember) is that Ozzy sings with the riff while Dio sings over the riff. Both great, but fundamentally different. My preference is Ozzy's style, which has had a huge impact on my own.

"across" the riff is the quote, I believe...
@jorgejaime4325 Жыл бұрын
He said: “As soon as Ronnie got involved, the writing changed as well, because I was able to play a different way, for some reason. Whereas Ozzy would sing a lot on the riffs and follow the riff, Ronnie would sing in between stuff - he didn’t always sing on riffs, and he’d sing on chords. And we were trying to also talk to him about singing on the riff as well, which he did on a couple of the things. But more or less, it was good, because you could approach the songs differently.”

@atides33 Жыл бұрын
@@SoloTravelerOffTheBeatenPath What a weird thing to say. I love both for different reasons, but regardless of your preference, you have to give credit where it is deserved. Dio is universally regarded as one of the greatest vocalist ever and the Dio Sabbath albums took the the band in a different, but equally groundbreaking direction. To call him "mid" is an insult to the man and the band. Just say you prefer Ozzy and leave it at that.

Thank you for making these videos! I'm a drummer and a keyboardist from Finland. I haven't written a comment before but I still probably wrote something on the live chat of one of your previous videos. Sabbra Cadabra is a great song from my favorite Black Sabbath album "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". It's a fantastic album as a whole and contains a lot of variation. This song even features Rick Wakeman. He's the keyboardist mostly known from the progressive rock band "Yes" but he was also a very successful session musician. One of his most memorable sessions was his piano playing on "Life On Mars" by David Bowie. I enjoy the whole jam session at the end of Sabbra Cadabra. I think it was really fun and enjoyable for the band as well. That's probably one of the reasons why they left it as it is and didn't add a fade-out to the end. It sounds to me like they didn't even think about the ending. The last 30 seconds sounds like pure improvisation by the band and Rick Wakeman. It was a surprise the first time I heard it but the second time it kind of felt just natural. Yeah, it's a real jam session and it's nice to hear a band actually playing and jamming together. As some of us know, many bands used to play live in the studio. So, the "basic tracks" were often played by the whole band together. Sometimes they just added vocals, some solos and some harmonies and effects on top later. One good example I know quite well is Rush. They played most of the parts together live in the studio until the "Power Windows" album when the producer changed to Peter Collins. I still want to write a few more words about Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. It was a really important album for me. I learned that everything is possible in hard rock, metal or just music in general. There were some truly positive musical surprises. I really like the instrumental called "Fluff", which I've heard was named after BBC radio disc jockey Alan "Fluff" Freeman. I think it sounds a bit like some baroque music mixed with the style of "Albatross" by (Peter Green's) Fleetwood Mac. I've always liked the song "Who Are You", which was a real surprise as well. It's one of those rare songs that's written by Ozzy Osbourne and it's quite unique. The style of some of the parts are similar to guitar riffs but they're played with an ARP 2600 synthesizer instead. Some slightly psychedelic stuff there and great vocal harmonies as well. "Spiral Architect" is the last song on the album and one of my favorite songs of all time. It has many great things including string arrangements and I love the feeling I get from the intro. The song has a lot of depth and the lyrics are quite interesting. Geezer Butler was the main lyricist in Black Sabbath and he said in an interview that one of the songs on the album came to him in a dream. Spiral Architect certainly has that vibe. I love it. Take care and enjoy the music.

A great reaction, Andrew! This is a great example of what real organic human music sounds like, which was almost extinct before a recent renaissance. Native American Navajos deliberately included subtle imperfections in their amazing blanket weaving where a mirror image was not quite exactly a perfect match in the design, which was thought to reflect the soul of the artist who created it. That's a sign of real art, soul and craftsmanship. The most underappreciated creative musical genius ever is Tony Iommi, who wrote this great creative music over and over and over, and created whole genres. Literally thousands of bands since have been doing variations on what he created for their whole careers.

Andrew said once that the name “Black Sabbath” may have scared off many people. Luckily those days are over. I love Led Zeppelin but hands down I would pick Sabbath over then. It has always perplexed me since I was 16 years old that Sabbath wasn’t more recognized. Feeling more and more vindicated in my taste as the years go by.

In my opinion, Ozzy's natural talent is in his melodic contribution. His ideas for melody, though he wasn't as well trained and talented as Dio as a vocalist, were superior and worked making Sabbath's music classic. I love Dio, but I like Ozzy better in the context of Black Sabbath.

Sabbath bloody Sabbath was their first time using a 24 track recording system along with it was a time when they were using copious amounts of a certain white powder, so the combination of the two thing amounted to a truly remarkable musical feast for the ears. A very experimental album in more ways than one, I think Sabbath bloody sabbath is so much different to any other sabbath album in just about every way possible.

It’s great that you’re mentioning Ozzy so much Andrew. Geezer said he never got enough credit for how good/original a singer he is. Although Geezer was the main lyric writer, Ozzy used to come up with so many memorable melody lines. There’s a really great song on ‘Technical Ecstasy’, their last album with Ozzy, which has some gorgeous singing by him called ‘She’s gone’. As always with Iommi, his acoustic playing on it is beautiful and eerie, but Ozzy shines on it. Well worth checking out.

Thanks for this. As a long-haired heavy rock lover in my mid to late teens when this album came out, I was already into Sabbath, Zeppelin and Purple. I recognised even then the differences in each of the bands’ drumming styles and how Bill Ward, John Bonham and Ian Paice influenced songs. I would listen to songs by each band and subconsciously block out everything else and concentrate on the drumming. However, your posts have given me even greater insight into the way the drummers of each band move the songs along. And I love to see and hear your reactions to ‘my’ music from when I was just a lad!

The decades have passed but this is still probably my favourite Sabbath song, maaaybe Fairies Wear Boots, but the honkytonk detour this goes is just amazing.

The keyboards and piano on this song were played by Yes keyboard wizard - Rick Wakeman. A lot of the other Sabbath tracks with piano were played by Tony in the earlier Ozzy stuff- and even Ozz plays - he does the Minimoog keyboards and wrote the main riff on the song "Who Are You" - also off Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Jezz Woodroffe and Don Airey would play on the last two Ozzy albums of the 70s, and then Geoff Nicholls would join - initially on bass while Geezer left the band due to divorce proceedings, and when he returned for the Dio era, Geoff moved to keyboards and stayed in the band until 2004.

I can imagine bill looking over with a big grin, as if to say... Oooooops! I grew up through the 70s and Black Sabbath was there the whole way. I was 10 when I first heard the debut album and YES, Ozzy instantly became my favorite vocalist.

What a treat to start my day!! This is my absolute favourite from the Sabbath Bloody Sabbath album, and definitely ranks high on my all-time fave Sabbath songs! The groove on this, the psychedelia/trippiness, Ozzy's voice...did I mention the groove?!! Just love the flow of this song! Distinctly remember first time hearing, and I know it's cliche, but I was indeed blown away at the awesome sonic journey I just experienced. Sure it may have been enhanced by some herbal stimulus, but what better way to listen to Sabbath!! Great reaction Andrew! Glad you've immersed yourself in the Sabbath catalogue, and are enjoying it so much!! Bill Ward is a wonderful drummer.

Yo Andrew...yet again you are spot on with your analysis of the band ...Bill Ward and Ozzy's vocals. I love Ozzy and RJD 's vocals...both work with Sabbath. I'm a 65 yr old rock and metal head ...who bought the first Sabbath album when it was released in 1970...I was 13 and it blew me away. I have been a fan ever since. I am one of your subscribers who is not a drummer but always wanted to be one. Glad you are now a Sabbath fan ....so many people don't understand the complexity of the songs. I really like your reactions and actually understand now what you mean about certain drum patterns.. Looking forward to your next reaction Maybe some more Opeth please? Peace from Liverpool UK 👍✌️🤘☮️

Ozzy just fits, no he’s not the most talented vocalist, but he has an intangible quality with his cadence, tone and just his Ozzie-ness. It’s like Kurt Cobain, not a great singer but you cannot comprehend ANYONE else in his place. They are both iconic, perfectly, imperfect!!!
@atomicpunk5318 Жыл бұрын
Ozzy’s tone on both sabbath bloody sabbath and sabotage is more aggressive and generally higher. It’s one of the reasons they didn’t perform songs from these albums live in later years as it was pushing his range. Two unbelievably good albums. Although one is over engineered and the later was after their management bankrupted them. Sabotage was done with a bit of anger and a stripped back sound. You should dive into Megalomania and The Writ.

I get what you're saying about small imperfections being perfect sometimes. Gives the work more humanity. Also when you were describing this song as a great road trip song I fully went back to the 70s picturing myself driving down a quiet highway late at night with my 8-track blasting and the 8 speakers inside ready to shred! My muscle car purring and Sabbath or Zepp belting out their best! Brought back good memories. I really like your commentaries.

1985 on a trip to Cedar Point in Sandusky Ohio, with my buds in a 76 Vega station wagon. With a wall of speakers hooked up, A half ounce of Lebanese blonde hash and a Sucrets box of Monkey paw rolled joints. We went through the entire album twice on the trip. best road trip EVER!!!

I wholeheartedly agree with you as there is nothing like real actual singing and playing of instruments were a virtuosity that are not altered with modern technics.

I love that you give koodos to Bill Ward , I believe he is one of the most underrated drummers in the business.. I also love that you give props to Ozzys vocals on this tune.. Everything about this band is on point here. Sabotage is my favorite album of all time.. I honestly believe this album has not ever got the credit it deserves.. The Writ, Megalomania are 2 genius musical rides that keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. They are like 3 or 4 songs in one.. they are so good because they are 4 unique talents that found eachother at the right time.. hail Sabbath. This is a supergroup and many of these songs are anthems..

Time changes, key changes, lyrics that make you think... And at the same time you're rocking out, head banging, just enjoying that religious /musical experience. And surprising you with working in instruments you wouldn't think would work in heavy rock. That's Black Sabbath. And then here comes Rush.

This is my favourite Sabbath album and the outro to this song is up there with the endings of 'A National Acrobat' and 'Megalomania' as my favourite finishes. Everything works and the Rick Wakeman keyboards are like the crowning jewel.
@davidschecter5247 Жыл бұрын
Very accurate assessment of Ozzy's contribution. He is another instrument, part OF the band, as Dio sounds like a singer WITH the band. Like you could pluck him out of it and put another singer in his place. That singer wouldn't be as good, but it would still work. Ozzy is part of the mono track of the band that can't be removed (at least not until the recent ability to remove sounds from a mono track -- LOL!)
