C&L's Late Night Music Club With Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath never seems to get enough credit for their musicianship, especially the rhythm section of Bill Ward and Geezer Butler. I've always felt that what set them apart is their flirtation with jazz, as evidenced in Bill Ward's playfulness with time. Anyway, they flat out rock too, so here's the Hand Of Doom off of 1970's Paranoid.
For anti-road-rage Wednesday, our sister site Newstalgia offers up its Mid-Week Concert - Orquesta Sinfonica de la Region de Murcia play music of de Lara, Poulenc and Tchaikovsky
ozzie 17 when this great album was released?

I hope not. That would make him only a few months older than I.

I did the math, at this time he's 217 years old. Well, at least he looks that old. Must have been the bat blood that aged him that much.

The concert was awesome, but I think I lost my hearing....

Set them apart from what? High levels of musicianship were the norm at the time this album was released (1970), and flirtations with jazz and even classical were common at the time, too, and would remain so until the corrosive, anti-musicianship influence of punk began to be felt in the late 70s. I'm not saying I don't like this song or that I don't like Black Sabbath - I love both; I'm only pointing out that Sabbath's musicianship and jazz elements were not so unusual for the time, were in fact kind of required in order to maintain a popular audience back then. Punk and the rise of electronics at the end of the 70s would change that.
