- Dave walker singing juniors eyes on the version he wrote..but was never used by black sabbath..as ozzy rejoined..Dave walker-vocals//harmonica--Geezer butler bass--Tony iommi -guitar -Bill ward drums.
Huge Dave Walker and SB fan too.....So cool to hear him involved with Sabbath at a time......JUST SO COOL
Really wish we'd gotten a Walker Sabbath album, or at least his version of Never Say Die.
Late stage Ozzy is so icy and sharp, like a ghost, much prefer this warm heavy soul-ier take. Really helps strengthen the music, which is light by Sabbath standards.
Dave Walker sounding really cool here .... Super talented guy ! ... Fantastic lyrics !
Finally!! My search of over 30 years is over!! Ever since I first heard this song from the crudest versions to this I’ve tried to figure the lyrics but never could. Couldn’t find anyone who knew them. I even asked Geezer in person in 2008 when I meet H&H at a meet & greet and he didn’t even know. As the qualities kept getting better and words more clearer I was about 70% complete. Finally my search is over!! I wish we could hear a great cover version or Dave sing it with the guys again!! I’ve loved this version for over 30 years!!
Dave has already recorded with us again...and will be doing a track from never say die as well.
@@emeraldsabbath8507 I'd like to hear him do the whole album 😁
@@Fongolitus Dave will be recording vocals for hard road---we already recorded solitude
@@emeraldsabbath8507 How many original songs did Dave write/record with Sabbath? Is "A Hard Road" one, like "Junior's Eyes," that has a different arrangement and lyrics?
@@thesithempire1348 Dave wrote a whole album including lyrics for the instrumental breakout..hard road etc.
I can't explain why but Junior's Eyes is my favorite Sabbath song. Holy cow, this version absolutely rocks. Bless ye!
I've heard this recording a ton of times in my 30 plus years of Sabbath fanhood but this is the best quality recording of it I've ever heard
thank you mate
@@emeraldsabbath8507 I'd love to hear his take on something from the actual Never Day Die album like Air Dance
@@YesSabbath5 am thinking of doing never say die track mate-for sure
@@emeraldsabbath8507 Available guitarist here just sayin \m/
@@YesSabbath5 was speaking to dave last night-we recording 2 tracks from never say die with bev bevan on drums and few other sabbath guys on bass and keys
I am so happy to finally have the lyrics to this gem of a version of the song.
thanks mate
The whole Never Say Die album with Dave would have kicked ass! His voice meshes better with Sabbath than I realized!
sounds great but I think Ozzys melody was way cooler on this track
Emerald Sabbath, thanks for doing what you do. 🙂
I first heard this about 20 years ago from a bootleg called "Archangel Rides Again", but I never could tell what the lyrics are. Thanks for including them!
Searching for the lyrics to this song for literally decades, and then one day they magically appear ! :)
dave had kept them somewhere and dug out for me--i could never figure them out otherwise-dave recording hard road and swinging the chain sometime soon.
Actually saw this when they performed it on Look! Hear! If I remember correctly Toyah introduced Sabbath on the show.
Lyrics are different but more importantly the vocal melody is different, which makes it a very different song. It shows how much intput Ozzy had into writing songs in Sabbath. There are still people who claim Ozzy didn't write anything. People, melodies don't fall from the sky with a set of lyrics, you have to create them. David is clearly a good singer, but Ozzy is the guy with the ability to create memorable melodies and that's what is missing from this version.
i like both versions--image if dave and bill ward sang on the album instead
@@emeraldsabbath8507 I like both versions too, Dave has a cool voice and he did put some melody there. It's just that the melody on Ozzy's version is distinctive, catchy, it's a hook. Both the verse and the chorus melody are very easy to remember instantly. Ozzy was a master at that (when he didn't sang along the riff that is).
I strongly disagree with this assessment.
You re right....its anti-creationist in its scope. Its already clear that Ozzy is,better; nevermind that this is a raw,
hasn't been given touches that production tends to alter. Listen to kneel and pray by deep purple, the raw version of what became SPEED KING...and shut up
Saying that Ozzy s a master melody-maker is one of the most obvious excuses that he was actually replaceable...the melodies account for the feel of song to a degree, but aren't the other musician putting their "feel" into the production as well?
I feel really bad for Dave. He was in two of the biggest bands of all time, Fleetwood Mac and Black Sabbath, but not for very long in both cases. Great voice and great talent though
Nevera say die, el disco más denostado de Black Sabbath, pero a mi me encanta. Sobre todo el sonido de la guitarra de Iommi.
Ozzy arrebenta nessa música!
Cool historical note to hear this. I don’t wish Dave Walker had recorded that album instead of Ozzy. But I have wondered what it’d have been like with Dio joining one album earlier!
awesome....Sabbath history!!!...thanx....
Never heard this in full before- thanks. 👍
Nothing short of excellent🎙
Dave going re record this for me with bev bevan and neil murray on bass
@@emeraldsabbath8507 Judging by your 'record' so to speak a winning combo. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
DAVE WALKER returned to Savoy Brown 1987-1991 for 2 studio albums and one live.
The studio albums area
KINGS OF BOOGIE ( 1989 )
and
" Make me Sweat"
"Lonely Is the Word" would be killer with him
We are recording this with bev bevan and Neil murray on bass.might add some strings and brass
There’s no doubt in my mind that they would’ve recorded a great album with Dave.
to true mate
They more or less did. Walker revealed that in the "Never Say Die (1979-97)" book. Whether those recordings will ever see the light of day is another story.
@@geezerbill they never will-but dave will be recording hard road and swinging the chain and another track soon for me-though wont be offical release-want to see how dave would fare now
@@emeraldsabbath8507 I would listen to that. 👍
If so then I can’t wait to hear them.
awesome.. glad we have this
Totally awesome ‼️
Seria ótimo se tivesse gravado todo o disco, na minha humilde opinião essa versão é a melhor!!
We are rerecording this again soon with dave walker on vocals again
This proto-version kills, a great version of a classic tune....
well it was dave who wrote it first..
@Funky Tunk who is SHE
@@emeraldsabbath8507 the lyrics. not the music. the album version is 10x better
Awesome! Great to finally know Dave's lyrics! Cheers!!
Emerald 'Historical' Sabbath
Thank you!!!
Really good quality, thank you for posting it with the lyrics! I assume those are Walker's lyrics, they're very different than what Geezer usually wrote! The only thing missing now is footage of them performing this song, I heard the BBC still has it in its archives
dave wrote these lyrics---i got the footage from the bbc but only juniors eyes
WELL DONE, DAVE!!!
You know, I have had this song for years. From one of the box sets if i remember or a DVD. The chorus was compelling but i couldn't get the verses. Powerful. Thanks
What box set? 💦
Nice clean source!
Nice
amazing thxs Emerald
What the shit is this?? Junior's Eyes is one of my favorite BS's song. Thanks God, we have Ozzy on this album!!
Согласен
Bills drum sound is identical to the album version ❤
Cool but ozzy did better
I would love to hear them play selling my soul.....
will keep that in mind for sure,
I think that the reason that you hear brief applause at the end is because this is the audio to this line-up of Black Sabbath's appearance on a TV show at the time. They played 2 songs; a classic one n this new version of Junior's Eyes.
I Have seen a clip of said show; but I don't think it exists even on UA-cam!!
I could be wrong though!
Yep Pebble Mill. Supposedly they played War Pigs? There is a photo on the internet, but never seen any footage myself.
@@MrLtia1234 I HAVE seen a small clip, it was on a TV show about "Bands From Birmingham" i think and it showed about a 4 or 5 second clip if that!
I think someone was talking over it so that you didn't hear Dave singing. For some reason I think it was Bill Ward talking over it?
🤔
@@brendannahor1460 wow, cheers. I'll have to track that one down.
@@MrLtia1234 I'd love too see it; or the original footage which I think was to do with an "East Midlands" TV program called "Look Here" broadcast on 6th January 1978!
Apparently; just after it was shown, Ozzy reappeared n wanted his job back!
🤘🏻
@@MrLtia1234 I have both Juniors eyes and Warpigs video footage now..but for leagal reason cannot make it public.the BBC owns the rights to it..
GR8
I like it.
We are going to re record it in the new year
You guys wouldn't happen to have the version of War Pigs they performed with Dave Walker on live TV, would you? I've heard rumors of its existence but haven't found it yet!
Got the 30 second clip of dave doing warpigs now--no vocals.but he lets out a roar on the start
@@emeraldsabbath8507 Oh my gosh, it exists!!! I hope audio can be found!
@@obsessedwithguitars3157 I got both warpigs and juniors eyes video footage now
@@emeraldsabbath8507 that's amazing news!
Blues Sabbath.
heavy hitter...can't believe they took Ozzy back , would like to hear the rest of the album with Dave on it
How can't you? Ozzy was an original and in most cases, original will always sell the best. It doesn't matter who is the better singer.
@@andrejz8954 well it kinda failed, even Ozzy himself doesn't have anything good to say about that record. didn't sell that well, most copies ended up on the delete rack or the bargain bin. personally I Loved it, but I'm more of a devoted sabbath fan
Rad🤘
Tell it like it is, Bro!
Would've been a great disc, for sure.
Copyright in England heheh. All the good music is sealed off or hidden tracks in Japan 👀😬
I would pay 10 cents for this record. . .if I were a trillionaire.
Where’s their performance of War Pigs from the same show?
trying to get my hands on it mate
@@emeraldsabbath8507 So they did in fact play it? Or did they just play the intro of it?
who titled this song? Did Dave call it 'Junior's Eye's?
i dont think so mate-think it was geezer-but will ask dave for sure.
@@emeraldsabbath8507 Did he give you an answer?
@@christophergordon7433 dave wrote it--
@@emeraldsabbath8507 I meant as fas as who titled the song.
Wasn't it named for a band that had supported Sabbath in their early days?
I’m glad ozzy came back
This sounds like Christian rock to me. C'mon folks, Ozzy was way better. No Ozzy, no Satan.
Vocal melody does not fit at all.
it sure not same as ozzys
Could of went more with a Bad Co meets Purple sounded...so essentially Whitesnake lol this is good and i like it more than their Dio phase.
This guy not fitting with Sabbath is one of the most asinine propositions in recent memory. That is to imply that
Tony Iommi does not have a musical ear, that he can t distinguish what sound HES LOOKING FOR. Its the usual politics took this possibility away...
Dio recorded 2 great album with them and Ian Gillan even, with Born Again, which was pretty damned good too...
These guys have the actual music, its like saying a dancer is above the music supporting them..sure you can have a Baryshnikov but doesn't t even he need music to perform? I don t get the singer worship AT ALL
@@burtonrivera5253 Agree 1000%.
Instrumentals bring more joy these days:
Less talk equals greater expression it seems
Ozzy version a billion times better.
I’ve never heard this version before. What’s the story behind it? Why such different lyrics?
Ozzy left some time in late 76 due to 'personal issues' so to carry on they hired Dave Walker, a fellow Birminghamite' He wrote the bulk of an album with them, this track got recorded and archived, and they're 'Dave Walker Lyrics', not Geezer/Ozzy lyrics ;)
Now where is War Pigs!! :)
soon mate
@@emeraldsabbath8507 Wow! I was half joking. Over the years, that is one that most thought was lost through time. Now video, would blow my mind.
This is interesting to hear, I do like Dave Walker with Savoy Brown but he really doesn't fit into the Black Sabbath mold & sound. Hearing this version really shows just how much Ozzy brings to the table with all his vocal melodies. The parts here where Dave stops singing on the chorus I believe is one of the parts where Ozzy really belts out a melody that brings such emotion to this song. That is what is missing ... the emotion Ozzy brought to this song. To be honest though & objective, I bought Never Say Die when it came out when I was 13 and wore the LP out so hearing a different structure with the melody & certain lyrics missing sounds dull & is lacking the dark sadness Ozzy brought to this song. Dave Walker is better in a straight up Blues/Rock Band. He is sort of a strange fill in for Sabbath. I can whistle Ozzy's vocal melodies but would never be able to whistle what Dave Walker is singing here.
This is the best version of this song. I wish it had a better production( and hadn't been ruined by Ozzy later on the record).
You're out of your mind, Ozzy proved indefinitely only he knows whats best for Tony's guitar. Dave had no business singing with Sabbath. Where Ozzy sang a gorgeous/emotional chorus, Dave left half blank...hack.
@@theHEROssss I disagree. Ozzy's version sucks.
@@Mephistotheles Fair enough.
The guy never had a chance to refine, it was like damage control. The singer worship is a definite plague...in fact 3 albums later with 2 singers and excellent quality I might add. Ozzys melodies don't put the asses in the seats, the production of those other guys does.
@@burtonrivera5253 Well said. But Ozzy partisans will never get it - nor do they wish to!
PALES in comparison to the real version with Ozzy. Sabbath = Tony/Geezer/Bill/Ozzy.
ah well-can you please eveYrone all the time-NO
Black Sabbath had more than one line-up. Ozzy was rightfully fired in 1979. Get over it.
I don't agree with you. Mark.
Since this is the first version, it is the "real" version. It's interesting and I'd like to hear the rest of whatever Dave recorded but, based on this, don't think he was a good replacement for Ozzy.
@@emeraldsabbath8507 You can never please the Ozzy partisans.
No, I dont like this
que fea voz, no es para Sabbath
Better than Ozzy.
