Original Sabbath line up is legendary. Ozzy Osbourne on vocals, Tommi Iommi on guitars, Geezer Butler on bass, Bill Ward on drums. One of the greatest

How many people said, “ I am Iron Man” into a fan to achieve the sound? I can’t be the only one!

My 14 year old self listened to this in my bedroom in the basement in the dark with headphones on, for the first time 50 years ago. Epic Moment. 🎶🤟✌👋👉🇨🇦

I cracked up when you said this is Black Sabbath? Yeah it’s just one of the most iconic rock songs ever.

The entire Paranoid album is just a classic that is basically the birth of heavy metal but seriously has a lot of hard rock progressive based sounds. It's just incredible music. Bill Ward (drums) was always a highly influential drummer and could beat a 6 piece kit like it was owing EVERYONE money. Geezer Buttler is no slouch on the bass either.

Black Sabbath are giants!!!! Bill Ward is such a great drummer... Very underrated...

I ain't going lie. You guys have the best reaction channel around. First, you are hitting all the heavy weights or rock, hard rock, and metal. On top of that, you guys are picking up the thing we noticed when we first heard these tunes. Ward takes all of the Sabbath songs to another level. His beats and fills are iconic. Speaking of iconic, you need to do Sabbath with Ronnie James Dio on vocals. He is considered by many one of greatest singers in metal history and took Sabbath to another level. Check out Heaven and Hell, but the song "Sign of the Southern Cross" is IMO, the greatest song in metal history. I am sure many will agree. It's incredible!

You can't get more iconic than this one! When I was 12, my 17 year-old sister was dating a big Sabbath fan, he was the first to play this for me and it blew my mind - I played the crap out of that record all summer long. Some straight-ahead, hard-hitting metal magic right here - keep on rocking!🤘

A MUST HEAR classic & a truly smooth groove,, Black Sabbath "Planet Caravan" ..TRUST ME on this one my music lovin' brothers!!

Still sounds fresh after 53 years... Timeless and Tasteful.

You can only listen to this at night!! 😅😅 Awesome!

Not sure if you already have heard this: Tony Iommi (the guitarist) had an accident with a sheet metal sheer before joining Black Sabbath, resulting in the loss of the tips of two fingers on his fretboard hand (his right, he played left-handed). He fashioned his own prosthetic fingertips, originally from the tips from pool cues; This actually adds to his greatness, as they act kinda like mini slides, and make his sound the unique joy that it is. In some videos you can see them, and once you know they're there, you'll notice them in the sound as well. Another thing about Tony: he played with Jethro Tull before joining Sabbath.

4:20 This guitar bass conversation always hypes me up so much

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH !!!! La n Che This is the one the iconic the awesome Iron Man !!!! From my young days in the early 70s and the suburban stoners to the hardcore Punks in the 1980s this was and is a beast of jam !! Heavy riffage horror movie revenge weirdness and a sludge pile of doom ! A masterpiece !! Thanx !!!!

My Grandmama took me to the record store with my Christmas money when I was 11. This is what I chose. Almost randomly. Like that weird album cover spoke to me. I had to look up "paranoid" in the encyclopedia dictionary. The music was self explanatory though. I remember my grandma going "you sure?". Best Christmas money I ever spent, really.

Amazing song...one of the greatest of all time...

Awesome. Such a classic of early metal.

My top 3 growing up...Sabbath, Zeppelin, Deep Purple. Whichever band i was listening to at the time was the best band in the world. Bill Ward, John Bonham, and Ian Paice were my drum instructors. Needle to vinyl over and over and over and....I still crank the p.a. and monitors in basement and jam to this stuff when not working on current band set list

Sabbath! Long live Ozzy!

For me "War Pigs" is their greatest. The original song and legendary award-winning video. Great reaction guys!!

You guys were MADE to do this. Fantastic 🎉

You right! This is THE ONE! The ONE rock riff EVERYBODY learns!

Absolutely, birth of a new genre.

I made the mistake of borrowing this 8 track from a friend when I was 16 in 1973 and driving alone out in the woods of the Addick's Reservoir outside of Houston, Texas at zero dark thirty. This song was playing when I drove past the "blue-light" cemetery for the first time that was supposed to glow from the swamp gas. When I saw the reflection of the tail lights of my '66 Chevelle off a sign in my rear-view mirror I nearly crapped my pants!

Over 50 years old; first heavy metal band.

My favorite from the same album is "Fairies Wear Boots"

"Hand of Doom" should be your next Sabbath reaction. Since you guys like drums, well, this one doesn't disappoint and ofcoarse the song is AWESOME❗️❗️ "Into the Void"...another must! Sabbath kinda mirrored Zeppelin with releases, basically dropped them together 👈

In the words of the great man "There's plenty more where that came from".

Loving your reactions guys. And yep, Bill Ward was a total monster on the drums

Undeniable classic 🤘

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath,National Acrobat are must from Sabbaths legendary library of bangers. ✌🏻

Their first album would make a great review song by song I believe they literally went into the studio and recorded most of the album live it's unbelievably heavy😮

you guys got a good channel and keep it real cheers my friends

Saw these live as a teenager. Loved them. Paranoid 👍🏼 🎶❤️🎶

"This is a real gangster record" I guess that was about what our parents had in mind back around 1970. I heard the three albums: Black Sabbath's Paranoid, Deep Purple in rock, and Santana's Abraxas at a friends house in one afternoon. At that time I was already familiar with Led Zeppelin 1+2, Jimi Hendrix, Jethro Tull, and Zappa. But I thought: How could it possibly be heavier...? ...and did it?

Awesome reaction! The way you guys were can't-help-it bobbing your craniums to this kick-ass classic, you're headbanging with the best of 'em! It just keeps getting better, and then. my God, that last 1/4 or so, starting at about 5:40 here--fuggedaboudit!

I can't even remember how many speakers I blew out in my old POS car listening to this 8-track! LOL Keep up the good work guys.

1968... I am 14 years old at the "Strawberry Festival" in O.C. Calif.. and saw this band live. After doing a show in San Diego, on the bus to L.A. they were told about the festival, so they stopped, seeing a stage Ozzy Volunteered to play a couple, they had the guitars and a drum kit was there... So.. Unscheduled, unannounced, unexpected. Black Sabbath did.... "Iron Man"... "Paranoid"... "The Wizard"... "War Pigs"... to about a crowd of 5,000.... It was awesome. Right place at the right time.

Considered by many to be the first heavy metal album.

Yep..I used to teach guitar and this was the first song my students wanted to learn. That riff is universal!

you guys are the best....its difficult to react to something youve never encountered, black sabbath, a band very simply that created a new gendre.......a most influential band of all time...love you guys appreciate the talent!!

Bill Ward is a beast! As some have mentioned, criminally underrated.

This was the second concert I went to, when I was 16 years old. I still have the album, although I haven't put it on the turntable in decades.

Great song, trend setting album and all time legends, you hit another classic tune. Their influence continues to this day. Try Electric Funeral off the same album but you guys should hear their first 6 albums in their entirety, one great track after another. Not just another Rock Band but Pop Culture Ikons! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶

"Wildin' too early", I love it!

Much like Zeppelin, Sabbath is a 3 Man Band with a vocalist who plays Harmonica. Massive talents.

A favorite of mine and millions of others for over 50 years.

For young learning musicians , this was just easy enough to be reachable to learn but just hard enough to feel you had upped your game!

Classic, love this track! Great reaction guys....LZ, DP and Sabbath 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

"this song is only for at night" 😂 that was funny...and true!

AND NOW HERE WE GO!!!

My first sabbath song in 75...Never stopped loving them...If you go through their discography NOT ONE SINGLE SONG IS ALIKE...EVERY SONG IS ENTIRELY DIFFERENT.. Caps for emphasis...

This came out when I was about 13. Me and my friends would robo-call (with dial up phones) the radio request line to get them to play this song.

NOTHING is heavier than that main riff from Wheels of Confusion off Vol. 4. One chord to rule them and crush all others!

That solo FIRE! Outro as well.

Metal at its finest.

Timeless song, iconic even! Saw Black Sabbath in 1974, Ozzy was still at the top of his game, and what can you say about the band?! Lots of headbanging to this one! Excellent reaction as usual…thanks for your insight!

Wow very nice guyz, thanks. 1972 Providence RI. My 1st live show

Great song from a great album. Thanks fellas as always great reaction. Much appreciated 🙏 ❤

Yes when I first heard iron man the aggression was off the charts! I turned my best friend on to this song and we used it for our hype for football practice and games! It was staple to here that riff everywhere in high school! I grew up at a great time for music and I loved it all! Chiguy!

Cruising with treble cranked. Oh the memories ❤

Why’d you question that it was Black Sabbath? This is one of their all time classics!

Ok fellas, now do planet caravan. Total different feeling. Sabbath is amazing

You need to listen to something from their first self titled album like NIB or The Wizzard, you will be witnessing the birth of heavy metal. The sound of the bass is so unique as the Geezer had prosthetic finger tips from some kind of industrial accident. He would play with the strings really loose to make it easier for him to play.

Legendary

You always knew who listened to Black Sabbath back in the day we were the ones hanging out on the back porch at the party's always looking for a grey magnetic field.

Something in the air in Birmingham in the English midlands during those days, Bill Ward here, Bonham,Bev Bevan ELO ,Graeme Edge moody Blues,all top drummers.

First time I heard this song was in a Bar that had been converted inside an old mine shaft in So. Dakota. The sound bounced off the cave walls- making it sound Bigger, more ominous..like we were in Portal. Very awesome effects on a epic song 😱 Agree- This was so aggresive compared to 'regular' rock+roll.

You just listened to the perfect band. Greatest riff guitarist, greatest bass player and of course the drum god Bill Ward. Not to mention the 2nd greatest front man ever. I mean Freddie Mercury existed after all

This scared the crap out of me when I first heard this as a kid back in the 70s....

Another very insightful reaction. Thank you!

“You can’t listen to this in the day time” cracked me up big time!

Great reaction, gentlemen! You are truly traversing the best that the 60s and 70s rock has to offer, I welcome you to my generation and you don’t need be be an old man like me, just old souls as you are. Since you started your reactions you have become true children of the revolution, speaking of which, check out the band T. Rex. Thank you

My favorite song by them

Heh-heh! Even coming from a cheap transistor am radio with a single cheezy speaker, the 13-year old me banged his head to this when it first received radio play. Fantastic song!

Hey guys! An Older cousin of mine Was in a blues band before he passed away earlier this year. I'm trying to get his name out because I feel like he deserved much more recognition. He wrote a song for his wife Rayma. She was the love of his life and she got cancer years ago and passed away. He wrote "Rayma's song" After she passed and I would love if you could react to it. It would be Rayma's song by Pete karnes blues band. I think you would like it. he was really good and travelled around the world playing with his band. Thank you!

Please enjoy Sabbath's War Pigs live in Paris 1970.

You guys are funny as hell.

Bill ward layin it down hard af

Iron Man was the B side of the single "Paranoid". I loved this song when I bought the single around 1970 and since I didn't have that many I played it a lot. My poor mother, what did she have to suffer - sorry mum ;-)). Best wishes @all...

Absolutely love the moment you've heard this before

Can’t go wrong wit Ironman

Still my Favorite BAND of all time! - - - - Planet Caravan next please = = =

This was my favorite song when I was five. That should say a lot about me, I think .......

Been listening, and loving, this music for years. And you guys summed it up in one word: "Gangster". LOL. PERFECT. Now you need to listen to Pat Travers playing "Evil". Carmine Appice from Vanilla Fudge, who Jon Bonham was a fan of, plays kickass drums. Hope you guys get to that. Love your stuff. YOSH.

Love you two. 🎸👍🎸

Ozzy Lived Hard. He just stares at the world (lyrics) 😂

Let's see....The Wizard, Children of the Grave, Am I Going Insane, Sweet Leaf, and if you want a nice little bass intro, you can't go wrong with N.I.B. These are some great Sabbath songs!

Keep going down the rabbit hole guys..you're off to a great start, only gets better from here 🤟🤟🤟

I was 11 when my older brother cranked this song for me.

I remember listening to this album & Sabboth Bloody Sabboth when I was about 14-15 yo with headphones -lights off! They were my older brothers albums who had left for the marines and overseas. I’ll always be grateful for the cool music I was privy too from his collection of early 70’s rock!❤ So awesome to Grow Up with such Amazing Music of the late 60’s and 70’s!

At Christmas time lot's of rock stations play a parody of this song called "I am Santa Clause" worth a listen for a laugh.

Tony Iommi has homemade prosthetic fingertips, because at at the age of 17, Iommi lost the tips of the middle and ring fingers of his right hand (his fret-board hand, since he is left-handed) in an industrial accident on his last day of work in a sheet metal factory. Iommi described how he "was told 'you'll never play again'. So he invented his own prosthetic fingertips, as a guitarist the gravity of this information is staggering, the amount famous guitar riffs this stubborn man's homemade fingertips is literally second to no one... Iron Man, Into The Void, Electric Funeral, Fairies Wear Boots, the crescendo and Outro to War Pigs, Paranoid, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Megalomania ect..ect...ect...

my fave track on the LP from the day I got it ! Little did I know that about 30 years I'd be diagnosed with hemochromatosis - making me a literal Iron Man 🤣 It explains a lot

@AirplayBeats I'm a lifelong Hip Hop head & biiig Black Sabbath Fan... You guys 1000% need to watch & react to Black Sabbath playing Warpigs live in Paris 1970 - Bill Ward beating the drums like they wronged him, Geezer going balistic on the bass, Tony the rifter master playing those filthy riffs like a fine tuned studio recording and Ozzy doing Ozzy shit like only he can, including seemingly forgetting the words and improvising (Dead Rats dinner?) new ones without missing a step... Force of nature does not do this footage justice - also theres now a HD version🤯

Proto-Metal. That's roots music for metalheads. I was 15 when I first heard that album in '71 or so.

You will never be the same!!!

So many great Black Sabbath songs to listen to, dive into the album titled Masters of Reality 👍

Night time-epic! Football games-after defense holds on 3rd down.

Can only listen to it late at nite, lol your killing me
