Headphones, baby. Headphones. Cranked up. And about 2 hours later I was temporarily dead for half a day but all in my head the music don't want to share any of that beautiful sound and kept me from getting yelled at. long time ago long time ago. Now I just have to worry about whether or not the granddaughter is sleeping hahaha
Geezer Butler (bass) and Bill Ward (drums) were one of the most formidable rhythm section in the history of music. They knew how to swing, a very unusual sound for rock at the time
And, hey.. Well done for expanding your musical horizon and opening your mind to what has to be one of the greatest genres of music of all time. Welcome to the world of Rock 🪨 🎸 ❤❤
@Old Crow ---Ward *might* have been as good as Bonham.. maybe. He is Top 10 in my book. Black Sabbath albums had terrible management and screwed the band over. The band also had terrible production. Zeppelin are still kings with more range and diversity but Sabbath was also very good..
Fun fact, the guitarist, Tonni Iommi had two or three finger tips removed on his feet hand in a industrial metal factory while the band was coming up. He made his own prosthetic finger tips and retaught himself to play.
I suppose you mean hand. Thats why i he had his guitar strings so loose tightened and had that special sound that has been gimiked by so many other bands.
Terry 'Geezer' Butler, good Irish Catholic lad, lyricist, and guitarist turned bassist. A defining feature of their sound. Even gets his own intro piece on 'N.I.B'.
They were still experimenting with a few of the lyrics here. This is somewhere in Paris in 1970. Ozzy was 20 or 21. Tony Iomni (guitarist) cut the tips of 2 of his fingertips off the last day he worked in a factory. Doctors told him he'd never play again. He created prosthetic fingertips for himself because he wasn't willing to give up music and they'd just formed Black Sabbath
I actually have 2 tickets to see Ozzy and was NOT able to see him either time!!!! One ticket was to Ozzfest in Atlanta and the other was to see him in Tampa! And my best friend has one as well to Ozzfest. It really SUCKS that I've had 2 tickets in my hands and didn't make it either time. But yeah I've jammed to Ozzy my .whole life in one way or aother lol!
Bill Ward-drums, Geezer Butler-bass, Tommy Iommi-guitar. Definitely one of their top songs. Crazy thing about the guitarist, he got 2 fingertips cut off at work. Check out the story. Appreciate ya RDiss! #ROMSQUAD #saucy
Great reaction.Everything about this live performance is perfect.In 1969 this is how you did a live show. Sing and play your ass off. Beat the drums like they owe you money.😀👍❤️✌️🌼
Bill Ward on Drums, Geezer Butler on Bass and Tony Iommi on guitar!! GOATs! When I listen to this, so do my neighbors! Suggestion: Alterbridge "Blackbird" live
I have heard a lot of reactions to this live version. You are the first to bring up Geezer Butler's bass playing and you are right!! But Bill Wards drumming was out of this world! Henry Rollins said and look it up, best ryhthm section ever!!
Listened to this while in the Navy and at sea off the coast of Vietnam in 1971. Would get high on weed, or hash when listening to Black Sabbath this was during the Vietnam War. Helped us (shipmates) keep our sanity and humanity.
What you say does matter. I love watching your generation learn from mine. Bass and drums always hold songs together. You just don’t notice. Chris Squire of Yes is GOAT!
Bill Ward was the drummer. One of the greats! And fun fact: Bill Ward and Bonzo(John Bonham from Led Zep) were born 26 days apart in two small towns very close together in the UK. What are the odds that two of the best drummers of all times were born at the same time in almost the same place? Cool
Those drums were hitting me in the spine in the middle section. When you listen to rock, that's the function of the bass in a lot of ways, it's like the translator from the drums rhythm to the guitars pitch. Hey, I'm seeing people put the title in block letters over the video when it's an official vid to partially obscure it, might work.
Ozzy - vocals, Tony Iommi - guitar, Bill Ward - drums and Geezer Butler - bass. Reminds me of sneaking downstairs to my older brothers room to listen to his albums. Good Times. Ozzy was a beast back in the day, lol. Hand Of Doom is a good Sabbath tune. ✌❤🤘
If you think Bill Ward hits the drums hard, just imagine how he felt when he let John Bonzo Bonham play his kit, and Bonzo broke them. After that, Bill wouldn't let Bonham play his kit.
Haha...tied with The Who's 'Won't Get Fooled Again' from the Live at Leeds album....And Johnny Winter and Rick Derringer's version of Jumpin Jack Flash on the Johnny Winter 'and Live album ( greatest cover ever imo lol)
And you’re damn right - Geezer Butler’s amazing bass playing holding it all together on the low end man. Damn straight. Respect to the bass players.(And John Paul Jones with Zep) RDiss, Tony Iommi the guitar player lost the tips of middle and ring fingers of his left hand working in a sheet metal factory, when he was 17. But you couldn’t stop him 🤘🏼🎸 Literally 🤘🏼, know what I’m sayin’
I think one mic is for the crowd and other for the recording. Bill slides in and out of tempo while watching Toni. Just like Bonom and Page and Vinnie And Dime. R.I.P
I love watching you love these songs we have loved for years!!! Another one you should listen to is Judas Priest "you got another thing coming". Good anthem song!
I was lucky when i got to see Black Sabbath reunion concert in New York 1999. I was only 18. i still cant forget that. They are the grandfather of metal and a pioneer. I would suggest please react to iron Maiden. They are hands down one of the, if not THE best live band to watch. Their catalog is ridiculously huge and they are one of the most influential metal band of all time. I suggest The Clansman live at Rock in RIO 2001. Hallowed be Thy Name is likely their most famous song. You can literally pick any songs from any of their live concert and it will blow you away. Up The Irons
If you really want to hit hear some great drums great bass shredding guitar crazy great vocals, Band-Maid. From Japan. Trust me. Live from 2-14-20 concert. Freedom Domination These ladies will blow your mind. Promise.
Bill Ward is a BEAST! Geezer Butler is the bassist? Bass player. And yeah your right, never get the limelight...except when you're the greatest metal bassist EVER! LIKE CLIFF FUCKIN BURTON! Ck out "Cliff'm all" Anisteiga/ pulling teeth and see the god of bass... R.I.P. Cliff☝️
How times easily forget that these are some of the people who DEFINED what "ROCKSTAR" is... Ozzy was "about that life" no bullshit... So much so that he lost his general sanity lol... He did ROCKSTAR level drugs... That's taking what happens in a movie as far as drug use and that superstar level life then to the Nth power.... AND HE LIVED! He's a walking mess of a mumbling human being but I respect that man just for surviving... and he can still friggin sing... Those real vocal legends sound peculiarly fantastic considering how much singing and time has passed...
Tony Iommi [eye-oh-me] on guitar Bill Ward on drums Geezer Butler on Bass & of course Ozzy spazzin on the mic ... And thanks for showing respect to that Bass ... A lot of ppl overlook the bass. Respect man. Great reaction. 🤘😁👍
Yeah I know you coming up on a year :) Recall the first Church reaction :) Great reaction as always brother , You still need to check MTV roof Top Grace VanderWaal DKCM :) This is the grandfather to Heavy , Wish you The Best The Texas Gent
Their second album (a UK No.1 in the days when that was plausible) was going to be called 'War Pigs' until they had a hit single and so they named it after the single. It's a good job that didn't set a precedent, because they were never going to be churning out happy-go-lucky pop tunes on a regular basis. Apparently this track got feedback from Vietnam vets... I wonder why?...
This kid dont know shit about ozzys music he is just making money from a video reactions ! You must be atleast 50 to appreciate some good old Sabbath music !
I think the drums use to cry when they saw Bill walk on the stage Hes a beast
For Real Thou 😁🎶🎧
Totally!
Big facts
Bill Ward doesn't play drums, he beat drums...
@Thomas Na
How many of our parents hitting your door yelling TURN IT DOWN!? I YELL I CANTTTTTTTT!! 🤣😂🤣😂 🙏🌍✌️🇺🇸
Glad I AM the parent! 🤣
Blair Elias yelling turn it up 👍🤣👍😂. 🙏✌️🇺🇸
Headphones, baby. Headphones. Cranked up. And about 2 hours later I was temporarily dead for half a day but all in my head the music don't want to share any of that beautiful sound and kept me from getting yelled at. long time ago long time ago. Now I just have to worry about whether or not the granddaughter is sleeping hahaha
Lol, if you could hear your parents yelling, the music wasn't on high enough!
Geezer Butler (bass) and Bill Ward (drums) were one of the most formidable rhythm section in the history of music. They knew how to swing, a very unusual sound for rock at the time
Because Ward grew up listening to big band swing music
Bill Ward was a true beast and Geezer is still in my top 5 til my dying day, lol.
John Bonham and John Paul Jones.
And, hey.. Well done for expanding your musical horizon and opening your mind to what has to be one of the greatest genres of music of all time. Welcome to the world of Rock 🪨 🎸 ❤❤
Yes. I’m old. I saw black sabbath in 1970. Concerts were new and not the same anymore. It was a happening back then.
Yes I'm old too. I was 18 in 1970. You were so lucky to get to see them
Lights went down and everyone would light up.
Hard to believe how great so many of these old groups were considering the lack of technology then. True artists!!
3 instruments, one voice and some lights and you get this. Always amazed
Is the lack of technology and the human element that make them great. It's that human element that touches people. A digital program can't do it.
Bill Ward was an incredibly underrated drummer.
@Old Crow ---Ward *might* have been as good as Bonham.. maybe. He is Top 10 in my book. Black Sabbath albums had terrible management and screwed the band over. The band also had terrible production. Zeppelin are still kings with more range and diversity but Sabbath was also very good..

The drums are insane, bill ward is very underrated
He’s not underrated, he’s a legend
@@pcpunksfuckoff8178 Nah he’s underrated
Yep..him and Ginger Baker. Waay underrated.
Ozzy of course changes the lyrics from the album version.
Fun fact, the guitarist, Tonni Iommi had two or three finger tips removed on his feet hand in a industrial metal factory while the band was coming up. He made his own prosthetic finger tips and retaught himself to play.
What the fuck is a foot hand? 😂😂
@@KissMyFatAxe lol fret hand
That sounds fun!
I suppose you mean hand. Thats why i he had his guitar strings so loose tightened and had that special sound that has been gimiked by so many other bands.
Thanks fam
My first concert 1977, Black Sabbath, Van Halen and Ted Nugent opened. U really listen to Hand of Doom and N. I. B. ✌

It is good you picked this live video, for it is truly the birth of metal and all that is heavy! 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻

Great Metal never dies. Great ones fam.
This song is as relevant today as it was back then. Good choice man! I keep coming back to your vids.
Best comment I've read about this performance was "Bill Ward beat those drums like they owed him money", still cracks me up, lol!
Dude you only scratched the surface of great 60’s and 70’s music. 😎👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bill Ward-drums, Geezer Butler-bass, Tommy Iommi-guitar. Definitely one of their top songs. Crazy thing about the guitarist, he got 2 fingertips cut off at work. Check out the story. Appreciate ya RDiss! #ROMSQUAD #saucy
Yes he did it 😁bill ward is insane his drumming has this funky vibe to them I love it
One of the most underrated drummers
Agreed. He's on par with Bonzo imo. He doesn't get the same amount of recognition. Absolutely solid drummer 🙌
@@KissMyFatAxe amen
Bill is the TRUTH, the whole truth and nothing but the TRUTH!!!!!!
Drum kits still hide in fear at the mere mention of the name Bill Ward...
Ward beats those drums like they owe him money $$$$$
Thanks again for another great reaction. And thank you for calling out the bass. Geezer Butler is one of my favorite bass players.
Great reaction.Everything about this live performance is perfect.In 1969 this is how you did a live show. Sing and play your ass off. Beat the drums like they owe you money.😀👍❤️✌️🌼
Glad you took my suggestion to do the live version. Geezer Butler on bass and he wrote all the lyrics too.
Bill Ward on Drums, Geezer Butler on Bass and Tony Iommi on guitar!! GOATs! When I listen to this, so do my neighbors!
Suggestion: Alterbridge "Blackbird" live
Baby face ozzy 🥰
Hard to remember being that young!👵

Youve good character and style. Keep it up.
Have u reviewed Child In Time by Deep Purple yet ?
Listened to this while in the Navy and at sea off the coast of Vietnam in 1971. Would get high on weed, or hash when listening to Black Sabbath this was during the Vietnam War. Helped us (shipmates) keep our sanity and humanity.
Props to you for giving bassist Geezer Butler his due - he was also Sabbath's primary lyricist.
One of the greatest war protests song of all time
First heard Ozzy at 15 at a 2 day outdoor music festival. It was hot people were trying to trade pot and beer for water pbj sandwiches.
Oh yes the good old days! Lol I remember them well Texas Jam 1982.
if you love killer bass listen to The Outlaws - Green grass and high tides (studio version first) Trust me
What you say does matter. I love watching your generation learn from mine. Bass and drums always hold songs together. You just don’t notice. Chris Squire of Yes is GOAT!
Bill Ward was the drummer. One of the greats! And fun fact:

THAT is fantastic!! I never knew! 🤯🤯🤘🤘
@@StaciaAmnaber
Yep pretty wild. Bill Ward was born May 5, 1948 and John Bonham was born May 31,1948 and they lived really close to each other 😜
@@ginao8935 I just love this!! GD England whats in the soil over there? And I was born May 21 ..a few years later. 🤗
@@StaciaAmnaber
Ha ha! Maybe we should be asking how far did the milkman travel😂
Just kidding
@@ginao8935 And they were also good friends. 🤘
You like drums? Check out MOBY DICK from Zeppelin
When I listen to Black Sabbath so do my Neighbors....!! LOL
Love your reaction to Bill Ward - he's ferocious & mesmerizing
this is one of my fav live performances EVAR, the way bill ward beats them drums I love to share this with my friends.
Black Sabbath the birth of "Metal", Ozzy was a maniac!!! I love them!! Listen to "Paranoid" if you haven't already or "Iron Man"...
Please watch Deep Purple Child in Time live 1970...105 million views, epic!
Have you reacted to any of DEF LEPPARD (Their drummer only has one arm) and MOTLEY CRUE??? Wild Stuff
Bill was literally trying to murder those drums 🤣🤣🤣
Black Sabbaths line up in 1970: Ozzy Osbourne singer, Tony Iomni lead guitar, Bill Ward, drums and Geezer Butler on bass. They are also British
Bullet proof drums that’s hysterical
Man Bill Ward beat the shit out of them drums look at Hazelden sticks he’s holding backwards
Geezer Butler played bass for Sabbath...
Bass players don't get respect,facts,check out cliff burton anesthesia solo,and primus tommy the cat for bass bro
I wonder if kids today could even survive concerts like this. It’s how I cut my teeth back in the day.
Try reacting to Deep Purple - Child in Time.
True raw talent! Not like tik tok
I've been a sabbath fan since I first heard there music in1971still mesmerising just great

what you're witnessing here is the start of heavy metal
best band best song best performance ever.

Literally 🤘🏼,
know what I’m sayin’
After this song all the instruments had to have a cigarette,,
Many times I have watched this and still look for where he broke stick. Hard to imagine he didn't, but, I have not found it. Black Sabbath forever
I think one mic is for the crowd and other for the recording. Bill slides in and out of tempo while watching Toni. Just like Bonom and Page and Vinnie And Dime. R.I.P
Yes sirrr! Geezer Butler is a god on the bass guitar!
I love watching you love these songs we have loved for years!!! Another one you should listen to is Judas Priest "you got another thing coming". Good anthem song!
Great reaction.
Ozzy in his prime!! He beat those drums like they owed him money!
Geezer Butler is an amazing base player. Toni Iomie guitar, Bill the beast Ward on drums BTW notices Bill Ward is holding the drumsticks backwards
Black Sabbath! Creators of metal!!!!!
This track shows how anti the VN war we all were.
They are too GOOD!!!!!!! Just hitting on all cylinders. Everyone in the band is fire 🔥
No auto-tune with ozzie lol
There was a saying that Wards drums had to go to hospital, if not the morgue, after each show. Sabbath, all 4 musicians- incredible!!
51 years ago.....
That same two mic combo was popular. I don't know why, but quadraphonic (4 channel stereo) was kinda new in music when I was young.
I was lucky when i got to see Black Sabbath reunion concert in New York 1999. I was only 18. i still cant forget that. They are the grandfather of metal and a pioneer.

Just so your mind is at peace, this drumkit Bill Ward was banging the shit of, was above 18.

In 1970 nearly every drummer would have got sacked or failed the audience for playing like that.
I really like the black sabbath band ... I knew this band in the 80s ......
Yeah I know you coming up on a year :) Recall the first Church reaction :) Great reaction as always brother , You still need to check MTV roof Top Grace VanderWaal DKCM :) This is the grandfather to Heavy , Wish you The Best The Texas Gent
Another great and crazy drummer was Keith Moon of The Who.. I think he said he plays the melody on the drums.
Love Ozzy ! Had this back when it first came out..lol.
I listen to Black Sabbath when we were tripping in Orange Sunshine. Incredible! ❤️
Lyrics are completely different from the original recording. And not as good, IMO. He does this a few different times. Lol.
Privileged to have met them several times. My dad knew them well. There is simply nothing like this that's ever been produced since. End of.
I found you for the 1st time last night. Glad you found Led Zeppelin
