Remember that this album was recorded in a day. The musicians all played at the same time in one room while Ozzy sang in a booth. Some of what makes this album exceptional is that there is sound bleed all over that gives the entire album a live feel. It was recorded on 4-track tape.
I was at the Birmingham concert... over 50 years after the first time I saw them at Birmingham Town Hall. They came home to play their last ever gig and it was a special night for all involved. They have fans of all generations who recognise them as being the godfathers of Heavy metal. Ozzy and co make appearances at many Birmingham events and only this week Sharon was in Brum to unveil the Huge 20 metre high Iron Bull named Ozzy (which was the iconic feature of the Commonwealth Games held in 2012) in Birmingham New Street Station.
These guys really connected with people from the start. Black Sabbath back in the day were banned from certain radio stations but, their albums were still going gold strictly through word of mouth, which is literally unheard of especially today.
Back in the day for the first 30 years of R&R was word of mouth among young people it was OWNED by the young the up & comers played in High School Gyms Yo!!! The Artists connected directly with their target audience, the biz' & the artform were germanating & flowering, but a common thread is the snakes & ladders part of ' The Game' it went from Payola to Tote the line rolla or become Da Man,DIYS ala Stevie Wonder or Prince
🤘🏼OH YEAH!🤘🏼 7:38 it’s now in my f’kn DNA… 45 years listening to this riff and there’s NO WAY that I can resist throwing my arms up, raising 🤘🏼🤘🏼high, banging my head and yelling OH YEAH! I gotta say, y’all f’kn rock and I’m gonna go back and peruse your reaction archives to see what else I can relive and maybe find some new stuff I’ll rock with. 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼
Such a astoundingly resilient album. It continues to draw new fans to this day. I think the combination of Reckless abandon in terms of that somatic material and the new dissident style of Blues riffing, melded with the intangible vibe that this recording captured so earnestly. Sabbath we're one hell of a tight musical entity even at this point and they just showed up in the studio space and played their set and then loaded the van and fucked off to another show that captured magic in the process
You can't kill that freaking witch man, we were blasting this in my friends room not long after it came out when his father came barging in, screaming 'What the Hell are you listening to? That's Devil's music and you are going to rot in Hell if you keep listening to it. He then grabbed the record off the turntable and broke it over his knee and threw us out of them house. We bought a new copy the next day! LOL! The witch forever, Sabbath still rules 53 years, all their albums and 13 of their concerts later. (Ozzy 8, Dio 3, Ian Gillian and Glenn Hughes, once each).
Behind The Wall Of Sleep Lyrics. Visions cupped within the flower Deadly petals with strange power Faces shine a deadly smile Look upon you at your trial Chill and numbs from head to toe Icy sun with frosty glow Words that glow read "to your sorrow" Words that glow read, "no tomorrow" Feel your spirit rise with the breeze Feel your body falling onto it's knees Take your walk of remorse Turns your body to a corpse Turns your body to a corpse Turns your body to a corpse Sleeping wall of remorse Turns your body to a corpse Now from darkness, there springs light Wall of sleep is cool and bright Wall of sleep is lying broken Sun shines in, you have awoken
Back in the 70's the band would end their show with this favorite. "Nib of a pen" was what Tony told Bill Ward his face looked like, during a flight when they were real high.
My first time visiting your channel. I saw Sabbath live in the 1970's, They kicked our collective asses. They came out onstage and played one song to the end. They would move from one song directly into the next. NO pause! At one point everyone left the stage but Bill Ward the drummer. Ward just kept right on going!!! No rest for him. A Great concert!! You all may know this already, Tony the wizard on the lead guitar injured his fingertips on his right hand. Yes the hand he frets his guitar with. Yet he can do this. This band are credited with the creation of this style of music. Lady I think you were getting into it!!!
Ozzy's voice is awesome. To me it has always been interesting how easy it is to understand him when he sings (from 1970 to 2017). ..And yet it is very difficult to understand him speak. Partly his accent, partly pharmaceuticals, etc
I keep forgetting how good their first album was! My brother and I used to geek out on geezers bass on N.I.B. This album has really held up since it's release
Black Sabbaths lead guitarist lost the tips of his fingers in a job related accident and used thimbles to enable him to play which is nothing short of amazing 😮
Gotta go thru all their albums from here on with ozzy era, not much so itll go quick ! And itll blow ur mind about sabbath that u never knew ;) and i feel itll be great for the channel ! But more for me hehe
😂🤘🏼😂 some more. FYI, if you didn’t already know, Zakk Wylde was Ozzie’s guitarist during his solo career after Ozzies, original lead guitarist, Randy Rhoads,, died in a plane crash. Randy Rhoads was a virtuoso, unfortunately, he died at the young age of 25,, BTW, OZZY is also Zach Wylde’s kids godfather😁😁
Love the enthusiasm for the classics. Sabbath were the Peaky Blinders of rock and roll, scruffy working class brummies from the dark corners of England's bombed out grimy industrial midlands. The music reflects who they were and where they came from.
Bonham came from Redditch (where his bronze statue is located), outside of Birmingham proper, while Plant was raised in Kidderminster to the northwest of there. Both met up later in Stourbridge. The Sabbath members all hailed from Aston, which is the inner city slum of Birmingham, while Peaky Blinders were slightly downriver in Little Heath. This area of Birmingham was the site of the munitions factories during the war, and were bombed mercilessly by Hitler during the Battle of Britain. Many of the collapsed structures were still heaps of rubble by the mid-sixties when Sabbath started up. Robert Plant knew Geezer Butler in the local music circuit, while Bill Ward and Tony Iommi became lifelong friends with John Bonham.
Silly me! I’m talking about how great the paranoid album is, but forgetting about wall of sleep and NIB on the first album. This first album is freaking great too lol! A bit more hard rock than eventual metal, but those two songs my band played all the time 40 years ago. Love it!
hello im german black sabbath is in my opinion the best british metal and rock band time of all im since 54 years a big fan by black sabbath and is my favorite band my favorite song is god is death i löve thisa band this song here is too very good melike the lyrics my name is lucifer hahaha firstclass i thank you so much for this song here ihave this song really enjoyed hope have not so many mistakes in english thank you you boths hope you bring more by black sabbath take care together by the way the guitare work is firstclass performance
The nib of the pen story is direct from geezer butler (the writer) the song is a love letter from the devil to a woman he’s fallen in love with and who he wants to be a better being for. I live in Birmingham and was at this show. Ozzy is an icon.
Almost love your Thumbnail better than N.I.B.! Mike a near perfect Tony Iommi and the beautiful Ozzy Osbourne. Maybe Sharon is into that, Pssst... She IS! You GO Dev!! Shining Brightly! YES, Mike Double tracking was a somewhat new method around late 60's early 70's. Jimi Hendrix (Hey, Hey, Hey) dabbled, quite a bit in the doubled and triple stack tracks, as well! New technologies were being born around this time and everyone got a piece of that pie. "New in Box" yeah, I like that!
Nativity In Black is so good even Zep would have loved to own it. Pretty sure it stayed in their set list ( along with “ Black Sabbath “) for every concert from 1960 to 2017. It’s got everything a great rock song needs. Also, I’m loving seeing Dev growing to the band.
Shocking how good this album was right away, we were in freaking what the Hell is This mode listening to it for the first time in my friend's basement with his sister and several other high schoolers. As soon as the rain starts you knew this was not 'normal' music and side 1 certainly confirms that. One of the best debuts of all time, those songs were incredible and so different than anything we were listening to. Wait until you hear side 2, you need to make sure you do Sleeping Village into Warning like you just did as they flow into each other and are part of the same musical suite. Tony Iommi is about to blow your minds!!! Enjoy. 🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶
Was there at “The End” in their and my hometown of Birmingham, they played two or three nights, it was an amazing gig - Ozzy flew into Birmingham last year as a total surprise to everyone for the Opening of the British Commonwealth Games in his hometown - the Games mascot was a enormous mechanical bull that attracted thousands to the city after the Games the bull was to be destroyed, after a petition was mounted the bull was kept today Wednesday in Birmingham Rail Station the Bull now named “Ozzy” after a poll by the people of Birmingham was officially unveiled in its new home by Sharon Osborne
Enjoying your reactions, thanks. Can't wait for the rest of this album, bar Evil Woman, if you do that one. Sleeping Village, Wicked World and Warning are some of my favourite Sabbath tunes.
You don't get more working class than Sabbath, right down to the single 12-hour session they could afford to record this album, and travel the next day for a £20 gig in Switzerland.
Roger Bain was in studio with them, he should be in the Rock n Roll HoF for this album, never mind all the other classics he was in the control room for.
Hey guys, Yay Dev is a Sabbath fan 🤘 I saw this line up in 2013 at a rock festival and they were the closing act of the weekend and boy they didn’t disappoint. Ozzy may be frail in body and mind but jeez his voice has balls still So glad you’re falling down the Sabbath rabbit hole. Their music got heavier with each album after their debut. The album “Sabbotage” is really heavy but with some interesting twists thrown in. The last album by the original line up is my favourite though. Very eclectic (which you think can’t be a word to describe Black Sabbath haha)
Cool that Dev digs Ozzy‘s voice. He was certainly unique. Interesting thing is by the early to mid 70s. He sang much higher, had more range and screamed his butt off at times and became an even better singer. In my opinion, anyway… songs like Sabbath, bloody Sabbath and Hole in the sky, and many others. I saw them for that last tour as well in ‘17 and Ozzie at that age can no longer get way up high so it forced them to do mostly their very early stuff which he could still pull off and it was fine with me because it was great to hear so much of the stuff from the first couple albums! That final tour, and that show was one of the best concerts I’ve been to, and I’ve been to a lot!
My first Sabbath album Was the 3rd and it’s still gospel to me. All the early stuff is 🔥 but you have to dip into Heaven and Hell with Dio on vocals for them. It was a nice surprise.
His guitar is a Jaydee SG custom, all the builds are based on his original 1960's gibson SG special called the 'monkey SG' cause of a sticker of a monkey playing violin, they're build for a very heavy sound with great playability, the pickups are crazy powerfull but with alot of clarity, a rare thing, it's litterly what he uses, on occasions he does use gibson custom shop but those are not his mains, that is the Jaydee SG, and a bit cheaper than the gibson Tony Iommi SG.Had to geek out when i heard you mention the guitar.
Black Sabbath is more wild on stage, look this video live in Paris 1970 'war pigs' with the drummer on fire ua-cam.com/video/PD2IT1JASi8/v-deo.html the vibe of the 70s, a gem unmissible
It seems hard to determine, but if "Nativity in Black" was a phrase in existence before Black Sabbath, then the song N.I.B. is most certainly meant to mean that, despite what the band might want to claim in retrospect. The song is about the Devil being born on Earth as a human and falling in love. The Devil being born on Earth as a human is literally Nativity in Black!
Couple of points. You are right about bringing great songs and playing them to a 1st album. Crazy thing is Sabbath kept it going Paranoid and then Master of Reality are in most fans eyes superior to this masterpiece. Ozzy was kicked out in like 79-80 and replaced by the awesome Ronnie James Dio. The Dio Sabbath was great as well but sounded a little different. Hell I like Dio better as a vocalist he is in many eyes the greatest metal singer ever…BUT Ozzy fit these early Sabbath songs perfectly. As for Zakk Wylde he was Ozzy’s guitarist for a really a long time in the solo Ozzy era.
It seems they had trouble how to react to this greatest song ever made by humans, it's as if some people are not sure an possibly scared to admit that they like or love this song.... Due to rap music "crap music" that's all people hear is rap, so when people hear this song for the first time ever, they realize what true bad ass music BLACK SABBATH CREATED...
I enjoy your reactions, a lot of older bands that I grew up with and love. Did you ever consider trying out The Warning. They are a new young 3 piece band that just rocks out. They got great hooks, great songs, they are awesome musicians, humble people and just rock out on stage. Well worth a listen. Thanks for your time.

I was first exposed to Sabbath & Zeppelin When i was 9 ('72)
Mom bought me LZ II and Paranoid
❤❤❤mom , you knew my destiny

This used to be my "fall asleep" cassette. I'd play it every night after work, wake up refreshed every morning. (I worked 2ond shift.)
Greatest band ever... Can't wait to get through their discography... It only gets better...
Rock On...!!!
Im so happy you guys "GET" it. When you get a chance listen to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Mind blowing !!

3:52 Dev's reaction to the drum change. Perfection.
Worth a sub.
that iconic bass solo was the intro to NIB. they always played it on radio & is included on the recording with the NIB track.

Hey - Listened for 11sec and knew y’all were my kind-o folks. Great banter - NIB = Haagendaz (sp)
Behind The Wall Of Sleep Lyrics.
Visions cupped within the flower
Deadly petals with strange power
Faces shine a deadly smile
Look upon you at your trial
Chill and numbs from head to toe
Icy sun with frosty glow
Words that glow read "to your sorrow"
Words that glow read, "no tomorrow"
Feel your spirit rise with the breeze
Feel your body falling onto it's knees
Take your walk of remorse
Turns your body to a corpse
Turns your body to a corpse
Turns your body to a corpse
Sleeping wall of remorse
Turns your body to a corpse
Now from darkness, there springs light
Wall of sleep is cool and bright
Wall of sleep is lying broken
Sun shines in, you have awoken
Back in the 70's the band would end their show with this favorite. "Nib of a pen" was what Tony told Bill Ward his face looked like, during a flight when they were real high.
Rolled many many joints on that fold out album cover back in the 1970's.
Lol, still do I bet.
Keep it lit dude.

Black Sabbaths lead guitarist lost the tips of his fingers in a job related accident and used thimbles to enable him to play which is nothing short of amazing 😮
It was recorded in 2 days . Best two days of creativity since God!

Perfect comparison. As Arthur Shelby would say, Sabbath F***ing Sabbath.
Robert Plant and John Bonham were from the same place. They knew each other pre-fame.
Bonham came from Redditch (where his bronze statue is located), outside of Birmingham proper, while Plant was raised in Kidderminster to the northwest of there. Both met up later in Stourbridge.
The Sabbath members all hailed from Aston, which is the inner city slum of Birmingham, while Peaky Blinders were slightly downriver in Little Heath.

i can't wait till you figure out that this is not a one album band,,, you are going to love the journey.

You are forgiven 😜
Sleeping Village into Warning, I can't wait!

If you guys didn't see it yet, you should see the back story to this album and their sixth album Sabotage 😎👍
Great reaction. I loved the Zak Wylde and live additions
Ozzy was looking for the Gig…in an Ad before the band began!
Was there at “The End” in their and my hometown of Birmingham, they played two or three nights, it was an amazing gig - Ozzy flew into Birmingham last year as a total surprise to everyone for the Opening of the British Commonwealth Games in his hometown - the Games mascot was a enormous mechanical bull that attracted thousands to the city after the Games the bull was to be destroyed, after a petition was mounted the bull was kept today Wednesday in Birmingham Rail Station the Bull now named “Ozzy” after a poll by the people of Birmingham was officially unveiled in its new home by Sharon Osborne
1970 , 53 years old the Rock It was never the same.. Black Sabbath inspirate the film italian Gothic horror . Episode with Boris karloff ...
Enjoying your reactions, thanks. Can't wait for the rest of this album, bar Evil Woman, if you do that one. Sleeping Village, Wicked World and Warning are some of my favourite Sabbath tunes.

Hey guys,
Yay Dev is a Sabbath fan 🤘
I saw this line up in 2013 at a rock festival and they were the closing act of the weekend and boy they didn’t disappoint. Ozzy may be frail in body and mind but jeez his voice has balls still
So glad you’re falling down the Sabbath rabbit hole. Their music got heavier with each album after their debut. The album “Sabbotage” is really heavy but with some interesting twists thrown in. The last album by the original line up is my favourite though. Very eclectic (which you think can’t be a word to describe Black Sabbath haha)
They don't need to get any heavier IMO, but hey, what do I know?
They need the first 6 albums in order, their jaws will be on the floor by the end of Sabbotage!
You should hear N.I.B with Ozzy and Primus
Cool that Dev digs Ozzy‘s voice. He was certainly unique. Interesting thing is by the early to mid 70s. He sang much higher, had more range and screamed his butt off at times and became an even better singer.

Nothing wrong with them lower registers!
My first Sabbath album Was the 3rd and it’s still gospel to me. All the early stuff is 🔥 but you have to dip into Heaven and Hell with Dio on vocals for them. It was a nice surprise.
There wasn't many Albums that wasn't classic by Black Sabbath....love Heaven and Hell!❤
a little bit country, a little bit rock and roll. - donny & marie
His guitar is a Jaydee SG custom, all the builds are based on his original 1960's gibson SG special called the 'monkey SG' cause of a sticker of a monkey playing violin, they're build for a very heavy sound with great playability, the pickups are crazy powerfull but with alot of clarity, a rare thing, it's litterly what he uses, on occasions he does use gibson custom shop but those are not his mains, that is the Jaydee SG, and a bit cheaper than the gibson Tony Iommi SG.Had to geek out when i heard you mention the guitar.
Geek away 🎸🤓
Black Sabbath is more wild on stage, look this video live in Paris 1970 'war pigs' with the drummer on fire ua-cam.com/video/PD2IT1JASi8/v-deo.html the vibe of the 70s, a gem unmissible
It seems hard to determine, but if "Nativity in Black" was a phrase in existence before Black Sabbath, then the song N.I.B. is most certainly meant to mean that, despite what the band might want to claim in retrospect. The song is about the Devil being born on Earth as a human and falling in love. The Devil being born on Earth as a human is literally Nativity in Black!
It wouldn't surprise me in the least if coming up with the pen nib story was their attempt to distance themselves from the Satanists.
1969!!!!!!
Couple of points. You are right about bringing great songs and playing them to a 1st album. Crazy thing is Sabbath kept it going Paranoid and then Master of Reality are in most fans eyes superior to this masterpiece. Ozzy was kicked out in like 79-80 and replaced by the awesome Ronnie James Dio. The Dio Sabbath was great as well but sounded a little different. Hell I like Dio better as a vocalist he is in many eyes the greatest metal singer ever…BUT Ozzy fit these early Sabbath songs perfectly. As for Zakk Wylde he was Ozzy’s guitarist for a really a long time in the solo Ozzy era.
NIB stands for Nativity in Black!
Ozzy wasn't a great singer in the traditional sense, but it was perfect for the Sabbath sound. His tone, his pacing and feel complete the sound.
DELICIOUS!!
It seems they had trouble how to react to this greatest song ever made by humans, it's as if some people are not sure an possibly scared to admit that they like or love this song.... Due to rap music "crap music" that's all people hear is rap, so when people hear this song for the first time ever, they realize what true bad ass music BLACK SABBATH CREATED...
Well they've been there for the last 55 years you don't look that old
Doesn't Zakk trash the guitar at the end?
Not in the version we saw, but that could've been funny.
That's called overdubbing
NIB is the only song I liked on their first album.
Dio just saying
Ozzy never had a nice voice, but he could always hit the notes.
Hendrix. Band of Gypsys!!!
N.ativity I.n B.lack.
The double repeat is not true it is 100% real
Zero radio play… War Pigs?? Hand of Doom?
You missed two songs if this was ur last reaction video on this album
Side 2 is next.
Are you guys are a little late to the dance
Not proper rock. This is the birth of Heavy Metal.
I enjoy your reactions, a lot of older bands that I grew up with and love. Did you ever consider trying out The Warning. They are a new young 3 piece band that just rocks out. They got great hooks, great songs, they are awesome musicians, humble people and just rock out on stage. Well worth a listen. Thanks for your time.
Behind the Wall of Sleep is inspired by H.P.Lovecraft. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._P._Lovecraft
