Black Sabbath

3 Ratings: 1.0

Hard Rock & Metal album by Black Sabbath

Some might claim that this 1970 debut is the definitive Black Sabbath record. While the gothic overtones of the opening track, "Black Sabbath" (thunderstorms and foreboding church bells introduce Ozzy Osbourne's howl and Tony Iommi's sludgy guitar), … see full wiki
