A show dedicated to Chris and Pete talking Sabbath...👍

Can’t wait. I always wanted a one-on-one show with Chris and Pete. Chris’s personality and vast knowledge on Sabbath further adds to the enjoyment of this topic. Also one of my favorite bands!

I don’t know anything about Black Sabbath, but I tune in because I enjoy the rap between Pete and Chris.

This was the show I needed. I've been an avid watcher of SoT since the start of Covid. It's been a life saver, but now I find the larger panel shows tiresome. Solely Pete and Chris, nothing beats it. Incredible stuff indeed.

Some of the other holy grails of Sabbath collecting- Tony Martin sessions during the Dehumanizer recording and the video of Dave Walker performing with Sabbath live on the BBC’s Look Hear program

After hearing the Live Evil remix, I’m even more excited to hear the Born Again remix when it happens, come on!!!

What a sick debut. If it’s Chris Alo and Pete talkin’ Sabbath, I’m here for it. So far, so great. If I think of any topics I’ll throw ‘em down.

I'm another old guy who over spent for bootlegs back in the eighties. Sound quality was hit or miss for sure. I agree they are much better now usually. Great show guys. Maybe do a show about the Tony Martin era? I thought it was very underrated.

The DEP sessions album is GREAT! I had never heard Glenn Hughes and he was awesome. That and Fused are really solid.

Pete/. King 🤴 ALO and. Black SABBATH/ = I’m 💯 IN !!!! 👍💯

Pete and Chris talking Sabbath =KZfaq gold 👍

Hi it's Naomi Philipson from West Palm Beach FL. I'm the biggest black Sabbath fan on this beautiful planet called earth lol. It was 1981 in sunrise, Florida at the sunrise musical theater and it was Ozzy Osborne, Randy Rudy and Tommy. . I would have preferred seeing bob daisley and Lee kirslake. But it is What it is. I remember Def leopard opened for them they were like little kids at the time. I stayed outside and waited a long time, but Ozzy Osborne came out of the taxicab. With Sharon, they weren't even married yet. And I got to speak to ozzy he was a true gentleman. A true rock star he's the love of my life. I live right down the street from the sunrise Musical theatre in 1987 black sabbath played there with ronnie james dio and the dehumanizer tour. As I drove home, I decided to pass by the parking lot and I heard them doing a practice warm up. I pulled in the parking lot and Ronnie James Dio Was there all alone and we got the chat together what a lovely person. I told him I lived right up to street. And I'm going to bring some records and poster to sign he said come back. When I came back in the parking lot there was Tony Gezzer and Ronnie's together just hanging out smoking a cigarette. They were so kind to sign my black Sabbath records. Ronnie was a little reluctant to sign his name over the album Cover from Technical Estasy because Ozzy was on. I said Ronnie sign your name and I was laughing. I said I love you sign your name and he signed it. They all signed it. I really enjoyed your show about Black Sabbath. Peace and Love. Black Sabbath brought me joy in life. In 1978 I saw the never say die tour at Hollywood sport auditorium in Florida van halen opened up for black sabbath.

Show idea: Blackmore Sabbath? running down the long list of Sabbath members/contributors who were in Rainbow or Purple, looking at their careers, what they brought to Sabbath.... great talking with you at the Glenn Hughes show, Pete

This is incredible. I know a ton of bands are covered on this channel, but I love watching Pete and Chris get hyper focused on someone they are truly passionate about, in this case Sabbath. Two entertaining guests, one of my favorite bands - I will watch every episode. Time to hunt down more Sabbath shows.

Wow, this is right up my alley !..! !..! There is so many angles in the Sabbath "mythology"... a good topic could be the "lost singers".

I have Live at Dumfries 1969 and Montreux 1970 which came with other stuff like 1970 BBC sessions and Earth demo and a few others.

I used to have a compilation on 8 track, called Pure Black. A mix of tracks from S/T and paranoid.

Great show @chrisalo @seaoftranquility - too funny, I've been meaning to reach out to Pete to see if there is a "no bootleg discussion" rule on SoA. I've only been watching/listening for a few years, but don't recall anyone ever mentioning bootleg recordings during the various episodes other than Professor Ken and his "grey market" CDs. Glad to know I was mistaken. Hope to see more of these discussions - would be great on The Prog Seat show.

As a guy who’s recorded countless shows myself, you had to find “ways” to sneak the recorder in.😂

Hell yes! Always great to see King Alo. 🤘🏼

Just got off of work and found this show playing. You Tube gold! Thanks guys!

Brilliant! Honestly i could listen to Pete and Alo talk for an hour about different shades of white A4 paper and be thoroughly entertained 😅🎉

I actually got to see Ray Gillan as Glenn Hughes replacement in 1985 the Seventh Star tour at the Nassau Coliseum and the dude was Incredible !

My favorite band and I always learn so much about them from you guys.

I wouldn't mind hearing Chris do a history of Venom.

Chris and Pete talking Sabbath is always worth the time! 2 possible small topics that I would like to know more about (not sure if they would be the basis for a full episode tho) 1. How did Live Aid happen? Like a lot of people, them showing up on stage together was a complete surprise. 2. Geezer’s time playing bass for Ozzy’s solo band (No Rest for the Wicked Tour)

Great video - please do more bootleg / grey area guides which really helps us navigating that minefield!

It’s always fun to listen to Chris talk about music and movies. His house must be like a music & movie museum.

Great episode guys.. Part of the Hartford Show from 1980 was broadcast on The King Biscuit Flower Hour..featured Sabbath and BOC.. back and forth. The Pittsburg 1975 show was also on a bootleg called Unorthodox. Most of Unorthodox was from Pennsylvania in 1978. First Sabbath Bootleg I ever bought. The Boston 1992 Orpheum Theater Show was broadcast live on WBCN FM.

That Tony Martin Boxset, was supposed to have been this year…🤷🏻‍♂️

This series is great!

Thanks for this show Pete & Chris !

I really started with Sabbath at the Dio years but love to hear these 2 talk about them. A lot of cool info to learn about the band that influenced so many artists that I love today

You are the official Sabbath Riff Worship 🙏 Channel, there can only be one.. 🏆. , congratulations 🎉 have a balloon. 🎈. 🎉

Always a treat when Chris can share his passion of Sabbath !

Great overview of some of the boots out there. I have the Ray Gillen Demos for Eternal Idol; and the Rob Halford/ Black Sabbath two CD set from 1992. Both are great insights into special, fleeting moments in the Sabbath canon.

Pete, I enjoy how patient you are to have Chris show and tell his collection. I need to hear the Halford stuff. I will definitely check out the Penelope Spheeris Oz Fest doc too.

As BS fan since 1970 I found this show totally awesome. Chris and Pete probably forgot more Sabbath than I ever knew! Super 51 minutes. I'm not as big of a Forbidden hater as most people and wonder if there will be that long coming remix and a new album cover?

Thanks Pete, just recently got big into sabbath. Known about them for a long time and listened occasionally but it was just recently they clicked. One of my favorite bands at the moment. This show comes at just the right time and I cant think of anyone better to do the show with then Chris.

Thanks for the info on the leggy-boots. I would like to see an Official Bootleg Series (e.g Cherry Red Records-Glenn Hughes) where the artist concerned may get some money back. As you mentioned though fans can pre-listen to these featured shows and take it or leave it. I would to hear a better audio of ‘Eighth Star’… Cozy Powell’s archives were certainly a turn up. Keep up the good work fellas. How did the new tracks on Black Sabbath The Dio Years,get “under the wire”? Great tracks which set us up for ‘The Devil You Know’ by Heaven & Hell.How about asking Joe Siegler from Black Sabbath Online on the show? Chris is fantastic too.. Joe appeared on a Deep Purple Podcast Show and was informative and humorous.

I’ll have to catch tomorrow. Stoked for this one. 🤘🌱

Definitely the show I've been always waiting for! Thanks guys 🍺🤘!!

Great show!!

Hi guys, Love this show…can’t wait till the next episode :)

I remember paying a big chunk of money 20 yrs ago for a Sabbath bootleg cd called Baghdad. It turned out to be the Cal Jam 74 concert.

Excellent show great to see Chris

Pete, I see your wearing a Sabbath Bloody Sabbath shirt. That was the first Sabbath album I heard on original release.. Love all things Sabbath.

Brilliant idea for a show,thanks gents

Fantastic episode and a great idea for a show in general - would love a show that covers awesome bootlegs, either by band or something notable about them.

Like many others, I fell in love with SoT and many of its personalities over the course of the pandemic. I went back through old videos and heard Chris’ offer to participate in a regular Sabbath show with Pete on the channel. I’ve been hoping for this for some time and excited it’s finally come to be. Appointment viewing for me. Keep up the great work and all the best for the holidays.

Great episode. Love anything that Pete and Chris do together.

Pete and Chris shows are my favourite, and anything about Black Sabbath is a must-listen for me. Great stuff guys, please keep them coming. Chris, your knowledge and enthusiasm for the band is just awesome to soak up, mate.

Excited for this series. You guys bs'ing about Sabbath is always a treat.

Great show. Just don`t forget to talk about the drummers too. First time I seen Sabbath on the Born Again tour in Sudbury Ontario Canada , Bev Bevan was on drums. He was great. Everybody was great. Nazareth opened the show and they were great too. It would be good to hear about opening acts and co-headliners as well.

Thanks guys i love Sabbath talk. I purchased everything i could find on DVD back in the 90's. I must have 3 copies of the mob rules tour but unfortunately the quality is bad. I do have the Montreal show with Ray Gillen and another Montreal show with Ian Gillan.

Damn, just when I thought this show has maxed on amazing content… another show that I will be tuning into whenever it’s on. This is literally the only channel I need !

Great show Chris and Pete. I have a version of the Born Again Tour show from the Worcester Centrum titled Purple Sabbath which sounded pretty good if I remember correctly.

Great Show Guys 🤘🤘🎶🎶

Pete and Chris talking about my favorite band of all time and simply the greatest band ever? I'm in, all the damn time. What a great idea for the show and you can see the admiration and love you guys have for the mighty Sabs. Thank you both for the future depletion of my bank account. 🤘🤘

Pete and Chris talking Sabbath. Really doesn't get any better.

great show!

Money well spent!!! Chris Alo’s best Ozzy era recommendation? Attached to sabotage deluxe set soooooooooo revelatory thank you

Love it, guys! Great show all about my all time favourite band. One thought I've had for quite a while now is that as time has went on, to me at least, it's become quite apparent that Dio was a better fit for Sabbath as a band (and particularly Iommi) than Ozzy ever was. The work of the original lineup will always be my personal favourite, but when you listen to how particularly Dio and Iommi both got heavier and doomier in their work over time and how Ozzy almost immediately after leaving (and still to this day) distanced himself from the Sabbath/Heavy Metal sound both musically and very openly, it just makes so much more sense that Dio was the perfect fit for the band. I think adding to this when you listen/read to what both Iommi and Geezer have said about their time with Dio that they truly loved it and how highly they rate those albums and how the Heaven & Hell reunion was so good and everything went so smooth. I think the guys themselves genuinely feel that if we hadn't have lost Dio they would've continued on doing so much more work with him and built a legacy around the Heaven & Hell band. Maybe not enough for a full topic discussion, but something I would now consider as my "hot take" on the band: that Dio actually always was a better fit for Black Sabbath than Ozzy. Maybe you guys could do a "hot take/controversial opinion" video about maybe songs, albums, etc. that you like/don't like. Would like to possibly see the idea of "missed opportunities" with Black Sabbath. Like how they didn't take the chance to do a new album after the 97 reunion or not taking the opportunity to work with different members or not getting Bill to at least do the studio work on 13 or simply not putting out a live album at their peak. I'd also be interested to hear what you guys think about Iommi's lack of musical releases, particularly given that his recent appearance on a TV documentary here in the UK ("Greatest Guitar Riffs" on Sky Arts). In the show Iommi (with best bud Brian May) highlights again how he just has all these riffs that he records lying around not being used for anything. He then actually plays a recording of one...except it's not just a riff, it's actually a proper song! The only thing we don't get to hear is if vocals were ever put to it. Why does this man, who is so immensely talented just not bother to release any of this? It's not like he's one of these guys who's not bothered about making music anymore, the fact he writes and records these full songs in his spare time shows how much he just loves doing it, but he just doesn't want to do anything with them for some reason.

love this show.... reminds me of the good ol' days!

Great show. I've been collecting bootlegs ever since I picked up a copy of Led Zeppelin On Blueberry Hill way back in the early 70's. A great way to learn the evolution of bands live shows & songs. It would be great if you could do one of your monthly countdown series on the best boots... some are classics!

Don’t really know of any new ideas but really cool show. Enjoyed seeing all the boots. Can’t wait for the next episode 🤘🏻

Pete this is the sweet spot 50 minutes. Whether two people or a cast of characters stick to 50. It may mean no more than 4 participants on a show. Also my google home display sucks because it never provides SOT based on newest. So I need to learn to watch this on my lap top so i can see the alerts, if anyone has a life hack on google home let me know. Love the king.

Sabbath played TV Crimes in 1992 at the Sun Dome in Tampa

An idea for future topic, Black Sabbath tribute/covers albums. Magnetic Eyes has Best Of Black Sabbath (2020) including a cover of "Never Say Die" by Earthless, and Volume 4 [Redux] (2020)

Gotta grab it while you can!!

the earth demos would be nice to get more info on. is there more than the handful of demos out there now? and the story of the acetate of "When I Came Down" in terms of the guy who found it and is trying to sell it for big bucks. odds are the earliest stuff will never be officially released BUT with A.I. technology the old recording might be able to help the audio quality.

I hope they release the Asbury Park show officially on vinyl in 2025 for the 50th Anniversary.

I loved this video 🙏🤘🤘

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, 1974, And Black Sabbath, ( S/T) 1972, were my introduction to Black Sabbath!

I bought the Box set of Sabotage and it has 5 discs with some really Awesome live Recordings from the Early 70’s

Yes!!!

In the 70's flea markets were selling bootleg records. I found a sabbath show in Germany and Pink Floyd The Wall live too. I miss rarity and obscurity but also enjoy finding old shows on Utube.

My personal favorite,on KZfaq is Providence 1975, great quality and setlist

Never get tired of talking about Lord Iommi and co................................keep it up!!!!

I have hundreds of Yes and Rush boots. The fan community for both bands was great in getting these things out there whether it was via trade or vine or torrents. Some great fan produced artwork as well.

The king 👑 , Pardon/Alo ! Good team up gentlemen 😁

I would recommend those "Transmission Impossible" series.....as the quality is usually quite decent. And yes - the Asbury Park show is fantastic. I would recommend ANYONE, even if you are just a mild Sab fan, getting that boot or show if possible and via any means necessary.

More Alo ! More Sabbath.

@50 min, surely 3/4 of the original line up are on The Fallen & presumably any other Born Again outtakes/alt versions (not live shows).

I bought a CD years ago called "Hexensabbath". It is a recording during the Dehumanizer tour I believe. This was produced in the U.K. back in 1992.

Wow, great show! And potentially very expensive😅

Some Sabbath boots I’ve heard include: Ashbury Park, NJ 1975 Sheffield, UK 1986 Chicago, IL 1983

Sunday is the day of The Sabbath!

I learned long ago, regarding boots, but.....just because the packaging is fantastic looking IT DOES NOT ALWAYS translate into great sound.

What was the 6 cd box set mentioned early on ?

Cool man!! SABBATH!!!

I am playing savage right now

Chris do you have ANY info on Martin box set? I don’t care if there’s any unreleased music. I just want Headless Cross and Eternal Idol On vinyl as I can’t find them anywhere . Thanks

What a Wicked Battle vest with Alo , Thanks for sharing Chris 😃👍

I'm a little surprised neither of them mentioned the Black 'N Blue bootleg video you can find here and there. I found it on DVD a few years ago from a website specializing in hard to find concerts. Has either Pete or Chris seen it?

Folks - what I learned year's ago is when it comes to collecting boots (and I've been doing it since late 1979 - early 1980) you MUST pay attention to the dates of the show....otherwise you'll buy doubles.....so be careful folks! IN FACT - here is what I've done - I've now made a list of my favorite bands that I have LIVE LEGAL and bootleg recordings of - with ALL the dates and places. I take this list with me when I go to record shows or shops so I don't accidently RE-BUY the same damn show. Beware - there are old bootlegs of now LEGALLY re-leased shows. At the time the boot was made - the show had probably NOT been legally released....now it has been. Unfortunately, I bought the boot after I already owned the legally re-leased recording! (it was a Bowie boot) I learned my lesson then and MADE my list. The good news to that story, is the sound quality of the boot...for whatever reason, IS actually better than the legal release (yeah...so go figure). No doubt boot-buying IS an adventure....it can be agitating but FOR THE MOST PART - IS USUALLY MOST OFTEN SATISFYING. Ever been to a concert, and the concert is absolutely fantastic.... and you say to the person you're with - "Man...I hope someone is booting this show." ? Just a question for the audience out there....

What is the version of Born Again that Pete mentioned has a live show with them playing Disturbing the Priest and Born Again?!

@SeaOfTranquility Pete, is there ANY recording on cd, album, or tape, of A National Acrobat??? That's my favorite song, & I've tried to find ANYTHING live that has it for YEARS, to my great frustration. I KNOW that they actually did play it live, at least a few times. I cannot find the damn thing ANYWHERE. 😢 Thanks...

There was a bootlegger in the 70's known as "Mike the Mike" who went to concerts in a wheelchair, faking a handicap and hiding the recording equipment in the wheelchair. I have a Zeppelin show from '77 at the LA Forum and it sounds pretty good. I've bought most of my bootlegs at record conventions.

Great episode, but I'm surprised neither Pete nor Chris have the Sabbath bootleg Long Beach Arena 1975 (Mike Millard Master Cassettes). Mike the Mic is a legendary concert taper that's notorious for how he snuck his recording equipment into shows and the high quality of his work. Many of his master tapes were discovered a few years back and are available on Japanese bootlegs. A profile on Mike, and other legendary concert tapers who did high quality recordings, would make for a good SOT episode.
