Black Sabbath changed music forever for me at 12 years old . Now 63 I still feel it .

This is their 1st album. Its the album that totally changed my concept of what music could be. Before this there was no dark, brooding sounds like this going on in rock. For me in 1970 it was life changing. Everything doesn't have to be bubble gum, and lollipops to be enjoyable .

I remember finding that album in my older sister's record collection. I put it on and couldn't believe how fucking cool it was. I was 14. Changed me forever.

Now you can see why I have been listening to this album for the last 51 years.

Warning is basically just Tony Iommi saying "listen to all these things I can do with a guitar" and I love it.

Now imagine what this sounded like in 1971

I love watching people react to my favorite song ever.

Black Sabbath the band that changed music forever the bands and the millions of people they influenced what a great band they are.

Oh my word! He done did it. Welcome to Iommi Town.

I never realized how bluesy Black Sabbath is, I gotta sit down and listen to this album again now that I'm older. So good! 🤘🤘🤘

I'm ashamed to say that I have never listened to an entire Black Sabbath album. I've always heard just whatever songs that were popular. I bought their debut album and listened to it on the way to work and was blown away! Bill Ward is a monster! The bluesy feel of The Warning is amazing!

I wore this album out in high school. My dad hated them and left my record sitting on a speaker so it warped. I played it warped and loud!

The best band of all time dude. Piece for piece, way too talented. Let's do some Hand of Doom next. 3 big switch ups, insane grooves... Ozzy's cadence is out of this world on that track

That heavy blues is epic

Black Sabbath are beyond the hype and the legendary status.

How about this T- they were all 21 or 22 when they made this album! The long extended jam on “Warning” Is because they were given two days in the studio, and were only supposed to record a single and a B side. They laid most of six tracks down in 8 hours(!) and the producer said, “if we can pad out one more longer track, we’ve got an album here, lads”. The record company was actually a bit surprised to be presented with an album, but when they heard it, they rushed it to the pressing plant and released it quickly.

Great reaction video, totally agree about the blend of blues and rock. But for me, as much as I love Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath were THE Gods.

I love that you said that Tony is talking to you with his guitar. I always felt like he was a second voice all throughout a lot of the songs. Not just a solo here and there - but lots of great guitar all through the songs with the vocals.

Love your enthusiasm through the reaction! This album and song formed the bedrock of my blues/rock journey when I was about 7. I have loved and performed many styles of music, from classical to jazz to bluegrass to punk and new wave. However, at 56 I still often come back to early Sabbath. Their authenticity and artistry remind me what music is meant to do: stir the imagination and elevate the soul. Thanks for sharing!

I used to listen to black sabbath greatest hits on a walkman in bed every night when I was 10-11. I was absolutely terrified esp, by black sabbath and the intro to iron man for about 2 years but couldn't stop listening to Sabbath every day and still can't 34 years later.

When I saw them live on the Vol.4 tour, most of this was incorporated into an epic medley that began with my all-time favourite Sabbath song, Supernaut. My jaw was on the floor by the end.

Tony Iommi ..... The "All-Time" Heavy Riff Master !!! : D

That cover said, "Hey, you know how music used to be? Well we got something new you won't believe." Notice the 2 different guitar solos going on simultaneously? Sabbath and many bands did this back then. That was very unique for the time (Freebird is a prime example of this technique).

Top 5 Sabbath song/suite for me. Always love the Blusey feel and work of all 4 on this.

This (The Warning) is one of my all-time favorite deep cuts from Black Sabbath. Hand of Doom, Children Of The Grave, Electric Funeral, Changes and countless others are all worth the time and reaction! Easily in my top 5 bands of all time!!!

This was a true jam!! Sabbath on their debut offering. Iconic....and embryonic heaviness!! 🤟 Fucking great reaction!

Yeah Sabbath is way waaaay better than Zeppelin. Zeppelin is ofc dope as hell though.

Warning is one the most underrated sabbath songs and it’s on of my fav

Tony said he recorded two solos for Warning and he preferred the other one that didn't get used!

You need to listen to Deep Purple Made In Japan Live album. Jon Lord was an amazing keyboard player, R.I.P.

Bill Ward and Geezer Butler were originally jazz influenced. That's what gives early Black Sabbath such a unique sound. One of the most amazing FIRST albums of a band.

I heard this Album for the first time in the summer of 1970. Fifty-Three years later, it still sounds fresh and innovative even today. Their truly were masters of their instruments, and then they played together they cooked like nothing that had come before it. Thanks for the video.

1st album I ever bought, I was 11 years old and they had just released the album. Loved them, old man hated them.

I love it when people find my favorite band ever and Love it!!

The classical music of the modern age.

If you want to check out more from this album check out Wicked World

Without those blues you have no feel.gotta have it.Even in heavy metal..

They recorded this album in 3 days, amazing.

Another masterpiece by the creative genius Tony Iommi. Great reaction! Released Friday the 13th, February 1970. Not just more distortion, but also detuning, slow heavy riffs and string bending that no one else can do to this day. Iommi was so creative he started his own genre and subgenres of doom and even thrash. Just about everyone playing anything heavy even today can trace back what they're doing to something he created. He even started out using banjo strings until he was able to get the superlight flex strings he needed manufactured. Even modern great doom bands like Benthic Realm cite Iommi as a major influence. Metallica's James Hetfield cites Iommi as a major influence on his band's sound. Iommi wrote all of Sabbath's music and all lyrics were basically Geezer Butler. The greatest songwriting team ever, in my opinion.

My son Gabriel requested this...we are both big time Sabbath fans to the bone!...love my son ❤

51 years ago.unbelieveable.they rocked..

First heard this song 52 years ago, and I'm still listening to it.

This album is timeless!!!!😀

Tony and John Bonham were great friends

I found this when I was looking through my uncle's record collection back in the late 80s, a pristine gatefold edition. It changed my life! He was a big Sabbath fan, still is!

This IS the very first Black Sabbath album. Self titled. What you are listening to is the Birth of Heavy Metal music. When you listen to this album and you keep in mind the time it came out, and what music was sounding like around that time, for a band to come around and make music like this... they were the only ones. They literally invented heavy metal with this album. Hence the dark evil vibe of the opening track. \m/

God father's of metal great reactions T🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️☮️💯

1 of my top 5 bands ever! This is just filthy! Love me some Black Sabbath!

This album is truly one of the top favorites. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was my next favorite album.

Skeleton of society, spill the blood, dead skin mask for slayer. Also Black Sabbath children of the sea, and heaven and hell

So good to see someone enjoying these gems from their first album. Warning is an amazing blues/jazz fusion song. This is a song that I like to play for people who would claim to "hate" Sabbath and heavy metal. When I play it they always say "this is really good, who is it"? When I tell them, they don't believe me. Wicked World has that amazing Jazzy intro and great fills along with the harder driving riff and dark lyrics. Classic Sabbath all around!

You have to understand that there wasn’t anything around like this in music at the time this album came out. When I bought this album, I was totally blown away. I mean, the Beatles were breaking up around this time.

A very under rated song from the post Ozzy era is "Lonely is the Word" on "Heaven and Hell", the first album with Ronnie James Dio.

The formula for most Black Sabbath songs are a two in one or a bifecta..this is a trifecta..enjoy brother.

Thanks for this! Gotta get your smooth on! Def old school for me, like War Pigs type! You do the the Rock, I got the Roll covered :P

I found this record in my Moms' album collection as a kid in the 80's and it blew me the F away.

This song combo has served as my and chill sessions for a long time now.

Black sabbath... Blues Jazz Heavy metal Rock All genre...and the best,biggest band heavy metal in a world🤘🤘🤘

I love reactions where the host understands the music.

love this album.. sounds just like the cover looks, dark, cold, crisp.. can smell the leaves and rain .. the faint smoke of a distant fire

Who's best, Who's worst? It was all good. Sab, Zep, Purple, Heep etc

This was among the best work that Sabbath ever did for me. All the changes in tempo, guitar fills, etc....just top notch!

I've been a Sabbath fan since I was a little kid. Literally, I was 5 in the late 60s, early 70s! They are arguably the most influential band in rock history! Their style is style being played and used today. I love blues and Sabbath is all about blues! Im glad to see you get into their vibe.

Gabe and Sabbath definitely deserve their own video. Now we gotta get you on the Motorhead train. You should check out the following if you like Sabbath. Sleep-Sonic Titan Monolord-Rust Edit: Thanks, T. You’re the best.

They met over this billboard ad, OZZY ZIG NEEDS A GIG. It was posted for work by non other than Ozzy and Tony and Geeze saw it and said to each other , " This guy sounds interesting." ....History in the making.

yea my dad used to say black sabbath was the first heavy metal band.. the song wicked world wasnt on here btw

This album is how I learned how to play guitar...I broke that cassette rewinding and fast forwarding.

Listened to this album over and over

Perhaps I didn't read far enough down in the comments, but "Warning" is a cover tune! The original song was recorded by (drummer) The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation and the original lyrics were, "I was WARNED about you, baby, but my feelings were a little bit too strong." (Not "I was born without you baby.") The original song is only approx. 3:30 min long, but Sabbath turned into almost half an album side! It should be called "The Warning Suite."

I grew up in the 70s so many great bands saw many

What a great reaction. First your analysis of the music and personal ranking (I moved up Deep Purple between BS and LZ later in my life) was spot on and very intuitive. Second, your reaction seemed alot like mine in 1971 when I first heard this album in the dorm with my friend, both stoned. After that I used my meager funds and bought their albums and saw them in concert 2 times in the early 70's. Best money I ever spent! I love your reactions and your wife's too.

The Gods of Metal.

Hell yeah the god father's of metal, lovem all. Great reaction my friend ❤️☮️🔥 TaTa. My uncle's turned me on to this band in the mid 70s when I was like 10 years old.

Great song and reaction T. I can remember my older brother jamming that album in the 70s awesome time and music

Bruh iommi created the metal tone on guitar bar none...one of my first records I was 14....changed my life bruh early sabbath is the goat....56 yr old school metal head here cheers from Kansas city..

Wicked world , one of my favorite song

This is my favorite piece of music of all time. It's perfect. I heard it for the first time in 1979 ish. I was 13 and it blew my mind. It's still in regular rotation and Geezer continues to be a huge influence.

I grew up with this album on vynal. Black Sabbath was one of the first albums I owned. 1975. I was 8 years old.

This album had to grow on me.. a couple songs I really liked immediately.. others took a bit to start to gain my appreciation… it’s so heavy.. it has those notes that they say, your not supposed to play…

This is one fantastic video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!😀 I was in high school when this album came out! My mom was so pissed. It was going to ruin my life. Here we are more than 50 years later and it sounds way better. And my mom said it would never last. She refused to buy my a drum set unless I changed my listening habits to more "acceptable" music!!. what the heck does that mean. My mom is still alive! We are both seniors which I am still having trouble dealing with. I don't feel like a senior. Thanks to Black Sabbath and the other excellent bands who laid the groundwork for hat was yet to come. I even think black Sabbath is more popular now than when I discovered them. Simply amazing!!!!😀

Love seeing people react to Albums I grew up with.

A good man it is great to see you enjoying this music I am 61 years old I've been listening to the stuff all my life great music. Watching you enjoy this is like listening to it the first time it's like hearing a new song thank you for your reaction it is timeless. God bless

Black Sabbath is blues with a kick in the ass🤣🤟

I'm so glad that Geezer Butler went out and joined Ozzys band again well he has been there for awhile now, but it makes me happy. Much love to you and your family. Please play more Black Sabbath only with Ozzy and more Ozzy Osbourne with MASTER Randy Rhoads. PLEASE.

Thank you man for doing my request

this is my sabbath favorite song this is the first song from the first album and it blows me away , all this album is amazing

been listening to sabbath for years, just found out recently that the warning is a cover song.

This is the second track on the B side of the album "A Bit of Finger / Sleeping Village / Warning". Wicked World is the first track. Great reaction none the less.

cool man ,,, I grew up with all the 60s and 70s rock and blues and funk and a bit of punk ....

Sleeping Village.. The most underrated Black Sabbath song!

I wouldn't say Sabbath is better than Zeppelin or Zeppelin is better than Sabbath. It's just that musically and lyrically they are just different.They are both fantastic at what they do.

About time you got to this musical treasure 😂 Better late than never. Loved the reaction

Very good Thank You. Toni mesmerize me

No wicked world?

They were called the Polka Tulk Blues Band Earth then changed name to Black Sabbath in 1969

When this album came out me and my bestie Russ cornford was his name god bless you brother he's dead now.we listened to this album stonned and it just cemented our belief that Sabbath was the greatest band of all time
