I can imagine Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath in the kitchen figuring out what too cook for the new decade (70's). Led Zeppelin throws in some Blues, Deep Purple throws in some Classical Music and Black Sabbath throws in some Jazz.....and there you have the recipe for Heavy Metal.
He NEVER ceases to surprise me!! And that Flamenco intro he'd sometimes do for the song, "Black Sabbath". And, also doing "Apache"--done by both Hank Marvin & The Shadows and The Ventures.
💥 I've always loved Ozzy's amazingly crystal clear vocals! The ONLY one I can think of who sounds ALOT like Ozzy is Roy Wood. He and Ozzy are both from Birmingham & are friends & have both supported eachother at times. Roy (qqv The Move, ELO and Wizzard) should have gotten WAY more famous with that voice. I think he was just way too much in his own zone. But his vocals have always been great! And he had/has a *very* similar tone. Check out "Blackberry Way" by The Move and smile! Many other lost lost gems there. Maybe they're both related?

@@RFvechi582 My pleasure. I hope you enjoyed seeing and hearing the people Ozzy and the boys were inspired by. I enjoyed the video you linked too even though I couldn't understand the language. The music...I understand. I had forgotten Black Sabbath did Blue Suede Shoes.
A cool thing is The New Yardbirds (Led Zeppelin) & Earth (Black Sabbath) both toured in Denmark & Sweden BEFORE they EVER crossed the Atlantic. The New Yardbirds played Denmark & Sweden in September 1968. Jimmy Page had to fulfill an old Yardbirds tour contract. In February 1969, Earth did a small tour of Scandinavia. Three gigs in Denmark & four gigs in Sweden.🌎
So this was what they did before they became black sabbath. I remember their first album, oh man they got tagged early as devil music, that's when I discovered a whole album of the heavy, which I had been craving . Heavy music has come along way. Thanks to Tony Iommi, and other pioneering musicians for their great contributions to all forms of the Heavy. HAIL Thee Eternal Heavy !!!
This information is new to me too Caminante Nocturno Rock, actually Thomas James is just a part of the song Z Tomaszem recorded live by the Polish band SBB at Polish Radio Warszawa, June 1974 and released on the 2004 compilation Sikorki. Z Tomaszem has a duration of 21:36, and the part attributed to Black Sabbath as Thomas James is from 13:00 until the end. Live and learn, thank you very much for the clarification Caminante. And before I forget, I ended up discovering another great band: SBB. We just have to know who started all this confusion.
The only original is the precursor to the song "black Sabbath" starting at 8:35. The rest are all covers. And yes, they did have a trumpet player in the band before they were called black Sabbath.
wow,so this was pre black sabbath music..they sounds like zappa.the 2nd song is just like Jazz metal? first jazz metal in history.i never heard this music ever.even in my younger days.i was 15 yrs old this time.they were really fantastic since day one..thanks for sharing this..ur a nice guy man.thanks again.
@ 8:36 There's that infamous diminished fifth, aka triad, aka "the devils triad" that Iommi later used in their self titled song "Black Sabbath" and that exists in virtually every heavy metal riff thats been written and recorded ever since

@@elinino5275 in their bio on wikipedia, they did have a trumpet player when they were earth. It said that they disbanded and reformed as black Sabbath but didn't tell the trumpet player. Actually, I think there was another guy in the band as well, a sixth guy, when they were earth.
@paul jenkins The Polka Tulk Blues Band featured Jimmy Phillips on the slide guitar and Alan Clark on trumpet. They were let go and Tony, Geezer, Bill and Ozzy fromed Earth later in August 69 changed the name to Black Sabbath .The song Thomas James is by the Polish band S.B.B. not Earth or Sabbath.
The name was changed from Earth to Black Sabbath in August 1969 because of another called Earth had a record contract and album released in England. The name is inspired by the 1963 Italian movie with Boris Karloff called Black Sabbath .
"when I came down" is a nice jam. I like it I think most of these songs were written by someone else except the obvious parts that later became the song "black Sabbath". All tracks are excellent and sound really good. Also, the trumpet player was a member of the band during the earth days. Unfortunately, he didn't make the final cut when the reformed as black Sabbath.
According to many scholars on the subject, this was the first heavy metal band on the planet, ua-cam.com/video/as1NcX31szs/v-deo.html it was called Blue Cheer, listen to it and give your opinion.

Anyone else concerned that the Polish band SSB sounded too much like Sabbath. Feared that the stories of the Mars suite were just a cover for excessive "borrowing." Rest easy now, SBB debuted in 1971 so Black Sabbath had that lick at least months before SBB.
