From what I understand. Those drums owed him money.
Lmao!!!!!!
Probably his ex's picture on the skins
😂😂
I thought they slapped his mama then stole his car, or that's the story I heard lol.
He said to the drums “yoozz talkin to me???
Them drums are going to heaven because he beat the hell out of them!
**Luvit** Ha YAY
Clever!
Visual and audio proof that Sabbath in their heyday were an absolute force of nature.
Keep in mind… Ozzy, Bill and Tony were 22 y/o in this performance and Geezer was just 21 🔥
Unbelievable
Wow! When I was 22, I had accomplished nothing. These four changed Rock and Roll!
@@wayL0ck I had just completed college, was unemployed and looking for a job at 22 🤷🏼♂️
When I was 22 I was going to college and working in a restaurant as a lead cook and barback. I couldn't even play the waitresses, let alone a kazoo. I tried to date 2 at the same time. One cried and dumped me, the other one slapped me in front of everyone. And all the waitresses formed a club against me. Little did they know how clueless I was and it was the only time in my life I did that. Yeah, that was my 'age 22 War Pig' story. The dumbest thing is they were both beautiful inside and out, and I thought it was my choice.
I must have been the dumbest 22 year old on earth!
Meanwhile Sabbath making legend songs for the universe age 22.
It's unreal. And surreal.
This song is as relevant as ever. War Pigs continue their destruction.
Bill Ward is a fucking mad man I never get tired of his playing here
Just 4 young lads from Birmingham inventing a music genre. Groovy as fuck too.
"Groovy as Fuck" Well Put ❗
Well said my friend,well said 👊
That’s what makes them the greatest in metal…,their groove.
UTV 💪🏻
Bill beating a confession out of those drums .
Legend says the drum kit never recovered from the beating.
I hope those drums were at least 18
They were still working out the lyrics.
i'm so grateful for this old footage.
I've heard 7 different versions of this song lol.
@@troycul6552 And the FNM version is the best.
Geezer wrote all the lyrics. Ozzy frequently forgot some, but maybe they were in flux. Pretty sure album was recorded. Power was never lacking. Super raw and stripped down here.
I think the spotlight coming on disoriented Ozzy and caused him to mess up the order of the lines.
@@johndrx165 This was a combination of the final lyrics and "Walpurgis", which was the original working title. There may be a little drug-fueled improvisation in there, too.
All four original members are still alive in 2024!!....nobody they know will ever take their rock and roll away from them!
If this performance does not give you chills, you have no soul
Bill played like the drums owed him money
Epic performance, and perfectly suited for 2024. We are living this song meaning every day. Wake up people.
Ozzy didn't leave, he was fired (drugs) and his best friend Bill Ward had to be the to fire him. Thankfully black sabbath reconciled with ozzy, and they toured and made another album together.
The words in this song are all happening today
54 years ago !! In the good old days 😊
Black Sabbath are the pioneers of heavy metal ❤
Bill Ward such an animal on the drums. So good!
Animal was such a Bill Ward on the drums.
I love everything about this performance. Everything sounds massive, and surprisingly clear. Bill Ward is an insane machine. And Ozzy's enthusiasm for his band is both inspirng, and endearing.
They hadn't even finalized the lyrics here, that's how fresh this was for them. They must have been so excited for what they were doing. Not only is this a masterpiece of a song, but it's so much heavier than anything else going. They must have been over the moon.
Well Put Justin❗ This was great to watch.
I think I finally understand why the lyrics are different from the one's I memorized
Yep. it was a combination of the "War Pigs" lyrics and the lyrics from "Walpurgis", which was the original working title of the song.
This performance should go down as one of the heaviest things known to man. basically started heavy metal. Bill Ward putting on a clinic with those drums
This whole show is on UA-cam from 1970. I'd strongly recommend you watch the version of Fairies Wear Boots from it. The boys bring the fonk. Bill brings the swing and it's good in groovetown.
Exactly what he said! ❤
…and “Hand of Doom.” This whole show is just incredible and I am so thankful it was filmed.
@@whamptonr omg omg omg Hand of Doom Paris 1970 is LEGENDARY
If they don't I WILL! Kicking myself even now for not seeking out enough live Sabbath before now! FWB is my fave song by them, can't wait!
It also has the best version of paranoid
So glad you finally got around to watching this, I was keen to see how you reacted to Bill ward live. It's a video I can watch over and over again. Great reaction guys
Same here, you took the words right out my mouth 🤘🎶
Ditto - I was absolutely shocked when I saw this footage. Bill Ward is mesmerizing. Thanks guys for doing this reaction!
Bill ward always bangs the F. out of the drums
Bill Ward made fire with those sticks 🥢🔥
Bill ward tryin to bust those skins.
Bill Ward was the star of this one IMO. Smashin that small setup drum kit!!! And the bassist slappin hard the WHOLE tune. Nice live reaction AB!
Black Sabbath in their prime just incredible The drums definitely owed Bill Ward money Ozzy giving it his all Geezer Butler on Bass and Tony Iommi guitar were the total package
The beginning of Metal 🤘
Geezer Butler needs more love. He drives the bass lines like a champ. Love him!
The reversed sticks do make a bigger sound, but more importantly...Bill hits so insanely hard that the smaller tip will ruin or punch thru a drum-head on the first song. The fatter end spreads out the impact.
Bill Ward the most underrated drummer ever
Peart, Ward, Moon, Baker, Bonham. Stewart Copeland, Gil Moore, Charlie Charles (Ian Dury and The Blockheads).
@Greg-io1ip Ian Paice was phenomenal too. Mitch Mitchell and Alex Van Halen, very underrated
Birmingham jazz !! Brilliant choice fellas!
That is maybe the best live version of a song you will ever see on UA-cam.
This and the live version of Child In Time by Deep Purple, also recorded in 1970. I'm not sure which one I prefer ... I love them both so much!
How many more times by led Zep Jan 1970 at the Albert hall and Kashmir 2007 by the same band.
Child in time is awesome.
That was a historic performance that was a force of nature. Nobody had heard music so heavy and original like that. Bill Ward was smashing those drums as hard as Bonham and he"s criminally underrated. I think if they had taken more time in the studio capturing Bill"s drumming with all its power and sophistication he"d be neck and neck with Bonham. Geezer was a guitar player but switched to bass and you can tell during the guitar solos that it"s his turn to go off yet still hold the bottom down. Tony Iommi is the Godfather of metal riffs. Ozzy had a voice like an air raid siren with power and clarity. Together they were the architects of metal. The Godfathers of Metal.
Preach the Metal Gospel, Brother!!🤘
All Paris concert great!!!
The ultimate war protest song
Whether its live or the studio cut. Its one of the greatest songs ever written! 🤘😎
When my brothers and I first played this in 1969 on our pioneer 500-watt stack stereo with quad tower speakers it shook my mother's china off the shelves!
Just love your conversation. I consumed this music as an early teenager. We never discussed it, just played it over and over.
Epic.
I hope Black Sabbath had a slow song after this because damn that drummer is got to be exhausted
Saw them at the California Jam in 1974 with 250,000 other people 😂
When Bill Ward had a heart attack, Toni Iommi sent him a card saying “congratulations on your new baby”. lol, awesome comedy on his part.
Bill Ward is so so underrated
Contrast War Pigs with another popular song from 1970, Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head. It was a time when music was making a drastic shift. The boomers music was giving way to the drug assisted tunes from the hippies. The shift to hard rock and metal was in full gear and Sabbath was leading the charge. I think it over corrected a little when it swung to disco, but we endured until that thankfully died, lol. Thanks for sharing!
If you want more (especially Geezer) watch Fairies Wear Boots from the same concert . You won't be disappointed .
Recorded live at the Paris Theatre in Brussels (Belgium) in late 1970, just after the release of their"Paranoid" album. The song was originally called "Walpurgis", but Sabath wanted to get rid of the "being satanic" moniker and changed the title to "War Pigs", which has slightly different lyrics (Ozzy 'wrongfully' sings some of the original lines here).
Nice info
Good insight as I'm thinking Ozzy forgets the placement of lyrics and creates new ones here. 😂
Rumor has the drummer Bill Ward was arrested after the show for beating the hell out of his drum kit.🔥
Award for best drums 1970 goes to Bill Ward
this is when War Pigs was evolving from the song Walpurgis, you can find that on youtube as well.
Witches gather at black masses
Bodies burning in red ashes
On the hill the church in ruins
Is the scene of evil doings
It's the place for all black sinners
Watch them eating dead rat's innards
I guess it's the same
Wherever you may go
Oh, Lord, yeah!
[Verse 2]
Carry banners which denounce the lord
See me rocking in my grave
See them anoint my head with dead rat's blood
See them stick this stake through me
Lord hold me back I just gotta go
They got a hold of my soul now
Lord can my brain escape what blood I'm seeing
Look in my eyes and bear it all, yeah!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
On the scene, a priest appears
Sinners falling at his knees
Satan sends out funeral pyre
Casts the priest into the fire
It's the place for all bad sinners
Watch them eating dead rat's innards
I guess its the same
Wherever you may go
Oh, Lord, yeah!
thank you
I am not sure evolving is the right word. The band had to change some of the lyrics to make the record producers happy. This performance was after the record was released, so live they reverted to some of the original lyrics.
They changed the game when they came along. Iconic band.
Those drums went and lived on a farm after this.
Ozzy the prince of darkness and Black Sabbath never disappointed their fans at the concerts
The War Pigs are alive and well and worse than ever. Context: In 1969 Americans killed in Viet Nam averaged over 500 per month, young people and their supporters didn.t like that. During the Iraq War they stopped families and photographers from greeting caskets coming back to (iirc) Dover Del. Thanks for the reaction you guys.
Thank you for this narrative you just wrote. Sad commentary about WAR PIGS.
My brother inlaw served at Dover AF base during Vietnam
The shock and awe of the late 60"s 70s. Was still hippie era and these fellas come around. Changed everything, bound for greatness from the start.
It's 1970, 54 years ago, wow
There's some killer drumming in this song! Love how Ozzy is just improvising with the lyrics.
This video bears witness to the greatness of Bill Ward. He should be considered among the greatest rock drummers of all time with Moon, Bonham, Peart, and Copeland. The creme de la creme.
This is the version you need to watch
Those opening chords let you know you are about to get a beatdown...and you will be glad for it.
DAMN!!!! 😮😮
you guys have just witnessed history!!! This is the birth of heavy metal and head banging glad you liked it!!!!
Wow you can feel the percussion and the energy thanks guys😀👍
This whole concert is amazing! Worth a watch! ❤❤
I don’t know how you get any more awesome than that?! Good Lord!
Ozzy didn't leave. He was thrown out because he's batshit CRAZY!!!
1970 baby!
Bill ward also sings on 2 tracks.its alright(technical ectasy) n swinging the chain(never say die) they needed 1 more song for the record.but ozzy was already gone so they wrote it about their break up.
Ozzy , the 1st headbanger!!!
Still hard to believe that was over 50 years ago
This was the music of my youth in high school and then in the Marine Corp afterwards. The Viet Nam War was raging on. I was and will always be a huge fan.
If you ever read Ozzy Osbourne's book he explains that Tony worked in a factory and lost some of his fingertips so he made Prosthetics with thimbles essentially giving him metal fingertips hence the reason for the unique sound off of his guitar
Back in 1965 I had an Extended Stay in England I saw these four when their band was called Earth in the pub scene at the time Ozzy would play the harmonica along with the rest of them jamming since Earth was a jazz blues band when they became Black Sabbath there was not much harmonica playing LOL except for the song The Wizard so he decided to bop his head and bounce around.
If I could give this reaction 20 thumbs up I would!... Love this footage, Love your reaction!!
You know what you don’t want to hear after that? “Hey guys your band is on next”
If you look closely at around 4:20 or so (no pun intended haa) you can kinda see Tony's thimbles on on his right finger tips..where he lopped them off in that accident. Also, I think this must before they recorded Paranoid, Ozzys lyrics have not been totally worked out yet, interesting to hear though. Please do HAND OF DOOM or NIB from the same concert! Belgium I believe it is, or maybe Paris..?
You guys should check out a prog band called Gentle Giant. Their last drummer used to beat the crap out of his drums like Rocky pounding on a rack of ribs, and would do it while wearing a full Oakland A's uniform including stirrups, while the rest of the band is playing amazing polyrhythms. Then they jump into some baroque chamber music and go into some funky prog fusion. Look for live concert footage of Free Hand and On Reflection, need to see both at once, because unbelievable to go from one to the other. Here's Free Hand ua-cam.com/video/vMrYSTzqFI8/v-deo.htmlsi=LsD7myuuZeSvLzt6
On Reflection
ua-cam.com/video/z6WSLG5r-wE/v-deo.htmlsi=KevoZH4Q2U9a9eb4
Always meant to listen to more prog, never really gone past Van Der Graaf Generator. I've just listened to both your links and I'm about to walk out into a dark Scottish winter's night and I'm almost bouncing. On reflection Alvar, that was a gift, thank you.
Brilliant!!! Guys, I think you might like "Narrow Daylight" by Diana Krall.
Bill just killing it...... as usual.
If Bill ward had a vanity license plate it would say "Masher". Super tight live performance.
This is so early is before the lyrics were not quite finished. Remarkable performance.
9:28 "and Geezer, just like JPJ, we'll never know what they look like" lol. they are both so underrated integral members of their bands.
The greatness we just witnessed is beyond comprehension! Epic 🔥
What a Power rock band.
I never realized until now that in this clip Bill Ward had his drum sticks turned around. Good call guys!
Those drums never paid Bill Ward late again.
The drum sound was incredible, I guess from the physical beating they took. Bill and a wall of sound back in the day on his small kit. Crazy good. I can't imagine what the stage volume was like back then, big amps and lots of speakers turned way up. Feeling the music physically, not just emotionally.
Ozzy didn't leave, he was fired.
You really need to see the 1975 rock show. Ozzy's signature showman routine is in full show.
Great performance 🔥
I prefer the lyrics that they ended up going with on the studio but I love this performance .
Ozzy didn’t want to leave he was fired because although they were all using drugs they fired Ozzy because they thought his use was affecting his performance.
Yes, lyrics were unfinished at the time.. When Ozzy left they were in a writers block.. I think Dio gave them a fresh new start. and Randy did the same for Ozzy.
i've heard this many times the recorded studio version and to be fair the drummer stood out, but live? live he takes over.
The original Black Sabbath is the best rock band of any kind, ever.
There will never be another Black Sabbath like this
RIP to Bill’s drum set. You talk about being in pocket ….. what a pleasure to watch.
look in the drummers eyes at 6:12 he is drumming for his life and winning.
Ozzy used to sometimes just stand in awe watching his band play behind him because they sounded so good
You know how to recognize good music and how to appreciate it.
Honestly ..Black Sabbath was one of the greatest!!
Their first show in the U.S. was Glassboro, NJ at Glassboro State College in 1970. They blew the power out for half the campus.
