+Gene Lattanzi Yeah, he had great ability and power back then but not sure what hell happened to it! If you hear him now its like one tone and key.. really sucks! I'd say to him.. go and enjoy your money and life because there is nothing more unless one wants to see him do jumping jacks like fool on stage!
How is he underrated ? Every metal fan knows how great this man is ! I'm a drummer myself and Bill has covered it all ! He's at the top of my list as one of the best !
+ChevKen Well that is interesting because I have a bootleg with this tune and Symptom of the Universe separated by several songs the gig was recorded 10/22/1975 at Hammersmith. The CD is called "This is a Sabotage!" in support of the the Sabotage. The record which was already out as of 7/28/1975.
Sabotage has been my fave Sabbath album since the first time I heard it in the 80's......and it's somehow one of their most overlooked. As much as I enjoy the first 4......Sabotage was by far their most creative and at the height of their talent. It's good to see I'm not alone in my opinion ;-)
This is interesting as this is an early live rendition of what became the end section of "Symptoms of the Universe"off 1975 "Sabotage Album". Actually recorded at the Ontario Motor Speedway, Ontario, California,U.S.A.On 6th April 1974.A little improvised section as part of Sabra Cadabra.Like Zeppelin and Purple (the later at this gig)The Sabs would often Jam pieces of songs in a live situation and the ones that worked they would include on future Album's !Ozzy was, and still is great at improvising lyrics and melody lines to Tony's guitar and some of their greatest songs were done this way.This is a fine recording straight from the mixing desk,and a good example of Ozzy's melodic Vocals,never shouting,grunting,screaming,like many of his contemporaries.His love and influence of The Beatles stayed through out his career.---Thank-you for posting I have this recording but this is the best quality I have heard.
Yeah, what Phil said! lol No, you are exactly right on every point. I thought it was just me 'till the 80's came and the 'Heshers' came out of nowhere with a love of all things Ozzy and Sabbath.
Sabbra Cabradabra?...I don't see y'all's connected dots, in any event? There's a much better more manly sounding version of this particular song with more in depth lyrics on Sabbaths imported album called Live at Last
It's a different "ozzy" singing. The music industry uses doppelgängers all the time. Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but its show business it happens every day
LYRICS for this version. Feel free to correct them or fill the blanks Sometimes I’m happy Sometimes I’m sad You know I’ve lost my woman You know I feel so bad She was the first thing yeah That ever happened to me You know I am alone ________me me me me right on! She was the first thing yeah That ever happened to me You know I am alone I thought___ I wanna ___people You know I love you all _________________ We’ll play forever more more more more we love you
I'm always blown away by how heavy Tony's riffs are. Of course, they're easy to hear in all the classic Sabbath songs...but even in this short, Americana-type of a bluesy rock arrangement, Tony's riffs, especially during the refrain, are grinding and heavy in a way that seems like they wouldn't fit...yet, they tie the whole tune together perfectly. Also, I'd have to say that Ozzy's vocals in this song are some of the best and most unique, by him, I've ever heard. He's showcasing a style I've never heard him use on any other track with either Sabbath or any of his other solo bands..Long live Sabbath~
Verse 1] Sometimes I'm happy Sometimes I'm sad I lost my woman I feel so bad She was my first love I needed her But it's so bad I'm on my own own own own Yeah! [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Now, I will sit here Everyday I loved that woman And everyday She was the first one It felt so good I didn't know what to say I just can't go on on on on Yeah!
THANK YOU for sharing this!! I thought I'd heard everything from Sabbath, but have never had the pleasure of hearing this one, so yeah, definite gratitude!!
I know it’s been up awhile, but I’m just now finding it. I don’t recall hearing this one, so rare is spot on. Thanks for putting it out there- I Love it! 👍
Its these rear and non radio played Sabbath songs I like a hell of a lot compaired to those over played tunes. Whats so cool is I was listening to Sabbath original on 8 track the first time and here it is like damn 40 yrs later and I end up hearing tunes I've never heard.
You cut the song exactly when Iommi go started his savage guitar solo...but surprised to hear a good and pwerfull metalblues moments voice of Ozzy...ty...awesome record...take care of him:-) !

great song they played live for many years. great stuff. I loved all their releases even the two weaker ones from the late seventies. and their more obscure tony martin lead vocals era ones.
Yeah, if Never say die and Technical ecstasy were by another band people would think they're pretty awesome. But cos Paranoid to Sabotage were so good peeps think the last two Ozzy ones are'nt much good but they are.
The actual real title of this song is called "What To Do" which first appeared on a bootleg entitled "Love in Chicago" (obviously a type-o as it was supposed to be called "Live in Chicago"). There were 4 different versions of this record even though it was such poor quality. Sounded like it was recorded from the men's room at the Chicago arena where they played. "Sometimes I'm Happy" was only the first words in the song but if you listen to the version of this from Asbury, New Jersey in 1975 he doesn't even say Sometimes I'm Happy at the beginning of it.
My cousin Frankie told me to listen to this song. Has at the other side of the country. That's so cool. Luvya buddy. Great song very different who is singing? Ozzy Osbourne after snorting ants LOL
Yes I do. Opens with Tomorrows Dream and ends with an interview with a girl interviewing Ozzy. Did you notice says " Billy Ward" at the end of this and Bill does an amazing drum solo.
It's Ozzy. Listen to early live recordings of Sabbath or "Wicked World" from the Past Lives album. Afterwards, you won't have any doubt that this is Ozzy. :)
Sabotage and Sabbath bloody Sabbath.....yet bill wards percussion on wicked world fairies wear boots...unmatched .....talk about a black Sabbath reunion......as a die hard and I mean I threw my life on the trash the dumpster juice for this band ....saw them on brisow the end tour. Like to see ward
Can't believe how sharp and powerful Ozzy's voice was!!!
Lol
What's so funny?
+Gene Lattanzi Yeah, he had great ability and power back then but not sure what hell happened to it! If you hear him now its like one tone and key.. really sucks!

+Alberto Mario Well, I liked your first sentence anyway...
Alberto Mario a little tough in the ending sentence :/
bill ward so underrated, he plays with power, swing and alittle funk!
Bill Ward would rip your arms out of your sockets and use them for sticks. He is a legend!
He is a King indeed.
Because jazz is a major influence to him
jarred allemand so funky! Love me some Bill Ward! 🤙👋🤘🤘
How is he underrated ? Every metal fan knows how great this man is ! I'm a drummer myself and Bill has covered it all ! He's at the top of my list as one of the best !
This is what would become incorporated at the end of the song, "Symptom Of The Universe".
***** interesting......i never put that together.
+ChevKen .....................You are on top of your game! Great job!
+ChevKen Indeed
+ChevKen It's also at the middle of "Wicked World" from "Live at Last"

Ozzy’s vocals in 1975 were at their absolute peak. Amazing. Sabotage is their best damn album. Bar none.
Id say 1974

Ozzpocket Productions I sure agree 🤝
Master Of Reality , their best
Master of Reality would like a word with you
I have never heard this song! I love it! Hear Ozzy's voice, strong, and the rawness is badass!!!
Yes, also he was on drugs too.
Live at Last had this track
You've actually heard it probably a lot of times. It was reworked and and became the ending to "Symptom of the Universe".
@@gl3605 no wonder i hear a couple parts and make the same comparison, both sound fuckin rad.
Any true Sabbath fan will know this Sabbath. Ozzy's voice was def much higher when he was younger.
Mike R How do people think this is anybody else is the real question..
I think he means this era of sabbath
That's also because this recording is played at the wrong speed, so the pitch is up. Just compare this to "Live at Last".
There’s a couple of more cool songs on Under Wheels Of Confusion, if you can find it.
@@PanekPL The point still stands.
Fuck man! Ozzy's voice is so killer...

Ozzy was a great blues singer.
Until drugs kill his ability to sing great
@@НиколайК-щ1ю I like both of his singing styles
@@НиколайК-щ1ю what’s Robert Plant’s excuse?
@@StornowayCG improper technique and from what I’ve heard he never warmed up his voice before he sang (don’t quote me on that though)
Ozzy is by far the best right next to Robert Plant. Jim Morrison as well but in his own way. Deep and smooth. Pure genius and talent all of them
Fucking beautiful, I love Ozzy and this band so much. That voice, super crisp and reminds me so much of Robert Plant.
Stevie Marriott
uhh !!! ozzy's singing sounds like janis Joplin , very bluesy !!!
That's because it's not even Ozzy singing... LOL
Yeah, it's ozzy for sure.
mark w no dude, that’s actually ozzy
It's a different "ozzy" singing. The music industry uses doppelgängers all the time. Sorry to burst everyone's bubble but its show business it happens every day
Which one
Wow did not know Ozzy could hit those notes. what a rare gem. thank you for sharing!
I mean he definitely can’t hit them now but he had a pretty good range in the 70s before the vocal damage.
God I love ozzy's voice here.
People who say Ozzy was never a good singer have obviously never listened to mid-'70s Sabbath
Thanks for sharing \m/
Who the hell says Ozzy was not a good singer?????
Agreed. Between 1973 and 1975, Ozzy's vocals were stellar (both in the studio and live). The decline began in 1976.
@@momichaux5054 Most people dude. Do you live under a rock? He has been unintelligible since the 1990's.

Very nice, old rare Sabbath in their beginning. Their sound is still as powerful today-
Thank you for the chance to hear this great music!-
Blues Sabbath...so sublime. Thanks. The broken rhythm lends a real stones-ish feel to the verse parts.
Thanks for the addition. Very sweet.
This was recorded live at the California jam in 1974
I'm thinking it's on UA-cam with Rainbow 🎉, could be wrong I drink and stuff 😂
They did this on Live at Last in the middle of Wicked World. Somewhere around 72
Thanks for sharing. Never heard this live before. Ozzy’s vocals remind me of Steve Marriott in some parts they are so strong.
Now that's a tasty riff...Scrumptious
LOL who slipped Ozzy the helium?
You never heard Black Sabbath before?

Instead of "You know I am alone", it should be "Now i'm all alone". At least that's what I hear

This riff is majestic.
This tune got me wet.first find today..Wow, zu
a better version of this can be found on the live at last cd. during wicked world, along with a awesome blues jam.
agreed
Which CD verion is it? i would very much like to listen to it
your Sooo right
Same bit, but different show.
I rather that one
This is now one of my favorite songs, it's funky a little bluesy, I dig it..
Thank you for this
Ozzy is such an underrated vocalist he's definitely one of my favorites
He was a really good vocalist from 1973 to 1975 (his peak years).
@@Danimal77 lol I like literally every single album. His voice is always good for me.
Quite the opposite, especially compared to Dio, Gillan, Halford, King Diamond and so on. He was good in his early years but not among the greatest
Better than Dio for sure.
Verse 1]
Sometimes I'm happy
Sometimes I'm sad
I lost my woman
I feel so bad
She was my first love
I needed her
But it's so bad
I'm on my own own own own
Yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Now, I will sit here
Everyday
I loved that woman
And everyday
She was the first one
It felt so good
I didn't know what to say
I just can't go on on on on
Yeah!
Ozzy's Godly intonation at 1:02 proves this is the way it was recorded whenever it was
I haven't heard this in DECADES! Thanks for posting!
THANK YOU for sharing this!! I thought I'd heard everything from Sabbath, but have never had the pleasure of hearing this one, so yeah, definite gratitude!!
Great song.
I know it’s been up awhile, but I’m just now finding it. I don’t recall hearing this one, so rare is spot on. Thanks for putting it out there- I Love it! 👍
Definitely Ozzy. I know that voice anywhere.
A good version. I listened a few years on past lives in wicked world song.
reminds me of a steve marriott tune....(humble pie)
+joseph spano
Absolutely !!!
Glad I wasn’t the only one thinking it
Small Faces
Does sound like Humble Pie...Ozzy adding "come on everybody lets get stoned" very cool...
Most definitely
*snaps fingers to beat* "ooooh boy that's some funky beats there man!"
Absolutely wonderful.
Reminiscent of a Humble Pie sound. Great mix of funk and rock mix. Good find, thanks.
This is a pretty neat track
young ozzy voice is just amazing
Worth taking time to listen, hadn't heard that version, thanks for posting!!
Reminds me of Budgie but harder
Jacob Reese wow your right on
Lol. Pretty damn close. Most people wouldn't recognize that.
Wow another Budgie fan, I thought I was the only one left. Rock on dude.
@@kikurass322 Here's another fan from Colombia.
And to add to the budgie train , specifically the song rape of the locks. These riffs are almost identical
Wow. I must have heard this once when I was a kid. I been using that guitar lick in a song I thought I wrote for years.
Thank You so much for sharing☮️🦋❣️❤️❣️
Im Happy, Rocks!!
saved the best for last
Ozzy still Rules
im soooo happy, thanks
It is also featured on "Live at last", which is recorded in 1973.
yeah! this is incredible, thank u for posting. I'm a huge fan and have never heard this! It's super funky.....great groove
Amazing.....after all these years. After forever it will still be great music. :^)
Man those early vocals. Thanks for posting.
No doubt one of the greatest singer ever. He's in my top ten
Greg Hubbard he was an amazing front man, which in this situation is definitely more important
Ronnie James Dio should be number 1
Dio IS #1
Lol, him and who else? Justin Beiber?
Toby Martin was good too
this is from the California Jam in 1974.
That was fricken incredible!!!!
Common everybody lets get stoned !!!
I feel like the audio was warped and his voice is distorted and sounds higher than it was originally recorded.. it is abnormally high in this
A lot of times, Ozzy did improvs using lyrics from "Changes" for this song.
Cheers buddy! 👍love rare shit 🤘
Ozzy almost sounds like Terry Reid here. Thanks for sharing. Great song.
This rare song is built to be an excellent 10 minute jam. It wants some major heavy length. I can hear it. Awesome stuff.
cool ! Bluesy like the really early stuff !
Thanks for sharing, never heard it before, and it's kool'
Its these rear and non radio played Sabbath songs I like a hell of a lot compaired to those over played tunes. Whats so cool is I was listening to Sabbath original on 8 track the first time and here it is like damn 40 yrs later and I end up hearing tunes I've never heard.
Thanks for sharing. Love when Sab gets metal Bluesy R;>☆♡~ 13%
Sounds like zeppelin but much heavier. Ozzy Plant who knew ozzy could sing like plant?
He did screech. Listen to Sabotage. This sounds a little sped up to me.
@Maru Frusciante heard john Bonham broke bill ward's drum by hitting them so hard. Love to listen to jam if they release it.
@@quit293 me too.the beat is medical
He doesnt sing like plant he sings like ozzy. Dont compare a god to another god.

i luv it great song....................
Cool vibe Ozzie you rule sabbath too.
I saw that tour, it was my first major Rock Concert.. Van Halen was back up , I was 12 and it kicked Major ass!!!!
Wow! That really is ozzy.fucking cool man!
Just shared this with my SON
great song they played live for many years. great stuff. I loved all their releases even the two weaker ones from the late seventies. and their more obscure tony martin lead vocals era ones.
Yeah, if Never say die and Technical ecstasy were by another band people would think they're pretty awesome. But cos Paranoid to Sabotage were so good peeps think the last two Ozzy ones are'nt much good but they are.
There's no possible way to dislike this.

Black Sabbath and really rocks
I heard this for the first Time in 2015 every time i listen to this i recall all those crazy Situations i was on.
ya his voice has changed a lot, I love all his music..young and old..i got to grow up with ozzy/blacksabbath, since I had 4 older brothers..
Badass, thanx for the upload!
Thank you Mr Wallace.
It was 1974 in California Jam
2020 heavy metal is immortal!!! My son's already listening this one
My cousin Frankie told me to listen to this song. Has at the other side of the country. That's so cool. Luvya buddy. Great song very different who is singing? Ozzy Osbourne after snorting ants LOL
Had to hear it again...
nice to see this pop up. this jam is on a number of bootlegs. i'm not sure that's the actual title or title by convenience.
Wow. I damn near didn't believe that this was Ozzy singing at first! First time I've ever heard this!
This is beautiful
Killing it. Before you ever knew.
