Ian Gillan was an honest guy while in the BS. He gave his best and his voice. Did not impose himself with his great voice and never tried to steal the throne of Ozzy. He was only one of the best rock singers in the world that passed through the BS.
Ian gillan-The God of pure magic, the only one person who can sing every song on those world, without thinking about it. Pure magic real God of Rock. Living Legend-Ian Gillan
This sounds a lot better than I expected, given Gillan has always said he wasn't a good fit for the band and that Ozzy had such a distinctive, baleful sound on the originals. Gillan's screaming, soaring vocals lend the guitar stuff quite an epic sound.
I think the thing with fitting in the band was timing, and it wasn't on Ian's side. Pity that too. I feel Ian and Ozzy were the two best Sabbath vocalists, and Tony must have liked him enough to work with him again on the Who cares stuff.
Gillan does a great job here, though the key is one note lower: D rather than E. The tour is the reason his voice is damaged, as he didn't recover fully from surgery before it.
Ian really brings the muscle to this version! His bandmates here - always superb players - seem to move up a notch in tribute to him. This was/is the ultimate Black Sabbath!
OMG!!! I love this man! Hot wired in red leather pants and a black vest. Hair down to there....never really saw your face....but to hear the voice sing and scream will be the moment of which I will end my life on. Thanks Ian for your gift to the world.
eu diria um dos, pois eu gosto do gillan, mas na minha opinião o freddie mercury ainda era melhor pelas notas que ele costumava chegar, o ronnie james dio também é outro vocalista muito bom
This is superb! I went to school with a die hard, yet intelligent Black Sabbath fan. We was upset when he heard that Deep Purple had reformed for Perfect Strangers. He had hoped that it was David Coverdale. This guy love Ian Gillan at the helm and considered the Gillan/Sabbath albums as one of their best. Wow .. the man can scream.
I have news for you: It was the best version. Saw it 11/18/83. The temp. outside was 52. When I left the arena it was snowing. Iommi lost control of his feed-back during "Smoke On The Water"; creating amp distortion so loud people had their hands on their ears.
I love Dio but something about him sounded off when he sang music from those first 6 Sabbath albums. Maybe it’s just me being so used to hearing Ozzy sing them
The only time I saw Sabbath was when Dio joined the band and I was lucky enough to see them on the Heaven and Hell tour at Manchester Apollo. I never could get into them with Ozzy. I first saw Dio on the rainbow rising tour at Stafford Bingley Hall and from then on I was Hooked.When Dio left I followed him and his Solo career and again saw him on many tours. I'm ashamed to say I have never heard anything of Sabbath with Gillan but as many of you have said this is an astonishing vocal performance from him when he was at the top of his game. As good as Ronnie was Im sure he must have been amazed at Ian's screams in the Heaven and Hell Finale to Paranoid. I am going to check out some more of Gillan's work with Sabbath now. Thanks for posting this it was certainly a "Well I never" moment 😃
This is from the Worcester centrum. Nov. 11.'83. Worcester,Mass. The full show was broadcast live on WAAF radio. So it was recorded by hundreds that night. On our good old cassette tapes. This is available on many diifert bootlegs. Some are better then others. Cheers.
I love Black Sabbath and Deep Purple both equally and it if wasn't for them I wouldn't be the metal head I am today I tip my hat off to Black Sabbath and Deep Purple they will always be my all time favorite bands
Long Live Gillan! He´s the best heavy rock singer with Dio, Ozzy has ever never reached the same level, and apparently, never will. Gillan keeps impressing me time after time again and I´veen listening his vocals very early, from 70´s.
Talked to Ian on Top of the Pops show when they called me at my Home at about 6:30 am in the late nineties. I had sent in a question via the internet and got the call from Ian. That was one hell of a wake up call. I also saw Deep Purple in the ninties with Steve Morse on Guitar . Great show at the S.F. Warfield Theatre .
I wish I could have seen the look on my face at the record store when I first picked up the Born Again album, turned it around and there to my shock...Ian Gillan on vocals!
+Harold Herrera No. Not that kind of screaming. You could hear hints of it in James Brown and Beatles music and stuff like that, but he was the first to bring it in as a trademark hard rock thing.
Ian Gillan was an honest guy while in the BS.

I keep expecting Gillian to spontaneously add, “I’m a highway star!”
when i saw they did smoke on the water as an encore
CinemaPuke yeah then ozzy said I can do child in time lol 😂😂
Finish with my woman, because she's not gonna take my car
People think I'm insane, because I'm racing it to the ground...
Go on :D
Well, he’s got speed inside his brain 🧠
ahahahahha roflan
Ian Gillan is absolutely brilliant!
Ian Gillan 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ian Gillan sounds fantastic anywhere!
I concur. He’s Ian fucking Gillan
This is Ozzy's song I don't care what nobody says nobody does like Ozzy
this is true
Much better vocal and look than Ozzy.
Гиллан в саббате

What a song, What a singer
One of the best ever
What a fabulous vocalist and perfect for Black Sabbath @2:30 as Ian G. keeps going
Gillan! What a voice!
Best voice and the best looking man ever! ❤❤❤
Tony Iommi's guitar tone during the Born again era was the best. Crunchy, dirty and heavy. Like 36 grit sandpaper.
Gillan's vocal range is incredible!
Absolutely Ian Gillan is the best...!!!
Ian´s voice is delicious to my ears.
+Jose Sanchez Seeing him as I did with Deep Purple,and then seeing him with Black Sabbath was freekin awesome!!! I saw them in Montreal,Canada 1983
Andy Smith : you're lucky.
Mine too 😵
This ian rocks
Gillan does a great job here, though the key is one note lower: D rather than E.
The tour is the reason his voice is damaged, as he didn't recover fully from surgery before it.
2:30 - 2:50 Did anyone else get chills?
Infinitrium true that legit chills
Me!!!! 💜🎧🌍
Shit Gillan can sing Heaven and Hell alright!!!
Yes, great chills
More like punkstyle than heavy
OMG heaven and hell .....OMG Gillan's voice OMG
forever Gillan the one ❤
Ozzy was good but Ian had phenomenal range. I like 'em all
Ian really brings the muscle to this version! His bandmates here - always superb players - seem to move up a notch in tribute to him. This was/is the ultimate Black Sabbath!
Sabbath should have done more with Ian on vocals. Amazing!
Born Again is a seriously underrated period of the BS catalog
Ian Gillan: the true Metal vocalist prototype!!!
I kinda imagine Dio's vocal as a true metal
@@dr0117 Dio was better for me and this my top 3
Dio
Gillan
Hagar .
@@dr0117 Yeah, but Gillan preceded Dio by at least 5 years.
Gillan is the TSAR of rock!
His voice suits the song so well. If I had heard this before Ozzy's version, I would like this one maybe even more
what a extraordinary voice,Gillian Scores!
Кроме как офигительно ничего не могу сказать!!!!!
да..но с ОЗЗИ лучше..а вот Дио более заметный след оставил в BS
Gillan and Sabbath should have continued to record more albums.....I love this Black Sabbath era!!!!
Agreed!
Salvatore La Grasta *far too Satanic for 1983 audiences ... Born Again is golden today, however*
Luv 'em both, but Gillan is D.Purple man so much more 💜
But this paranoid waz orgastic, or somethin like it 😅♓💜
Agree totally. I like him more thani like Dio....
Шикарно. Гиллан на высоте как всегда и во всем.
И нет ему равных!
The Ian Gillan live versions of these Sabbath songs are absolutely fantastic. He may not have fitted with the band but nonetheless he killed live.
Ya I truly agree
Ian is a great frontman
Absolutely agreed...
More punk/trash style than ozzy..sorrry 🤘💚💙✌💜❤🌍🎸
Just 💚🤘💜❤ adore Ian Gillan
OMG!!! I love this man!
Hot wired in red leather pants and a black vest. Hair down to there....never really saw your face....but to hear the voice sing and scream will be the moment of which I will end my life on.
Thanks Ian for your gift to the world.
well said...... Ian in Sabbath was a fookin GIFT
Gillan sin duda uno de los grandes
Y con los Sabbath se escucha muy bien.
GRANDE GILLAN!!!
It's so different from usual sound though it brings unique charm. It's great that Ian had his episode in Black Sabbath.
the timbre of the voice of Ian Gillan is unique
Actually one of my favorite Sabbath releases
The voice...
Melhor vocalista de todos os tempos
Sem dúvida!
Concordo plenamente.
eu diria um dos, pois eu gosto do gillan, mas na minha opinião o freddie mercury ainda era melhor pelas notas que ele costumava chegar, o ronnie james dio também é outro vocalista muito bom
@@lukeblackstone261 Freddie jamais iria conseguir cantar "Child in Time"
@@mauriciobortolozo5887 Conseguiria sim pô, faz parte do range dele, só iria mudar alguns registros eu acho, mas sairia com uma qualidade ótima
!! Gillan encajaba perfecto en cualquier banda por algo es de los mejores vocalistas del mundo !!
el es la voz que hiso que dickinson y rob halfford crearan el estilo de como se canta heavy metal
@@enriqueramirez8549 ruclips.net/video/6wwFGioCS6U/видео.html Biografía de Black Sabbath con Ian Gillan en español
Ian Gillan es un magnífico cantante ! No nada es uno de los mejores del género !
I love the evil guitar sound.
Solo dose sound like Heaven and Hell album
The greatest rock and roll screamer, bar none.
I can hear some amazing screaming...also by the audience, who seemed to enjoy very much this wonderful line-up
you guys are insane ian gillan with sabath gives them that real dark evil sound sounds fuckin great m8
Gillan, the silver voice.
Ian G is in my opinion the best rocksinger ever
drumsanddrumming ian gillan was good with black sabbath.
@@loriabrams3048
That's not what he's saying, he's saying Ian Gillan was the best rock vocalist of all time.
I disagree but i can respect your opinion, He was absolutely amazing, but i really think his style suits Deep purple much better
@@AK-bx4jy
Who's your favorite?
I disagree, hell I don't think he was the best singer in Deep Purple but he's one of the best rock singers for sure
Ian Gillan foreverrrrrrrrrrrrr
This is the best Sabbath song I've heard sung by Gillan so far.
great sound. and Great Singer.
My favorite version. Ian’s voice rocks!
This is superb! I went to school with a die hard, yet intelligent Black Sabbath fan. We was upset when he heard that Deep Purple had reformed for Perfect Strangers. He had hoped that it was David Coverdale.
This guy love Ian Gillan at the helm and considered the Gillan/Sabbath albums as one of their best. Wow .. the man can scream.
Frosted ...Hell no...
Gillian over Coverdale anytime...
In my opinion the best version I heart.....and the final part including Heaveng and Hell, just incredible!
I have news for you: It was the best version. Saw it 11/18/83. The temp. outside was 52. When I left the arena it was snowing. Iommi lost control of his feed-back during "Smoke On The Water"; creating amp distortion so loud people had their hands on their ears.
+Ken Ruger Where mate?
Amen, brother!
Super Legends!!!
Ian ROCK'S
After listening to all Black Sabbath singers i can say that Gillan does the best version of this song (apart from Ozzy obviously)
Well there's only 3 sabbath singers, to my knowledge so could have just said he was better than Dio. But I agree with you nonetheless.
ozzy sucks
@@IgnorancEnArrogance there were also tony martin, glenn hughes, ray gillen, and dave donato
@@HimTortons - I stand corrected. I forgot about Glenn Hughes, who is just as amazing, but I never cared for the others.
I love Dio but something about him sounded off when he sang music from those first 6 Sabbath albums. Maybe it’s just me being so used to hearing Ozzy sing them

Very nice..
I saw Ian Gillan with Deep Purple in 2002. Great concert in Dublin, Ireland
Long Live Gillan! He´s the best heavy rock singer with Dio, Ozzy has ever never reached the same level, and apparently, never will. Gillan keeps impressing me time after time again and I´veen listening his vocals very early, from 70´s.
You should listen the albums Sabbath Bloody Sabbath & Sabotage, the best Ozzy vocals
used to be 30 plus yrs ago
Listening to this soothes my headache
This rocks !
GILLAN FOREVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, Ian was so much better suited for this song.
Ian gillan is one of my favorite frontman
And i prefer his voice but ozzy IS the song
I saw sabbath in Albuquerque with Ian Gillian and the oncor song was smoke on the water, awesome show.

Besides it had been a while since Ozzy left.
Perfeito sabbath purple
Luciano Pavaroti said Ian Gillian was a powerhouse on the mic. That's some high praise.
Ian Dio Ozzy all has great voices !!
SUPER!!!!
The most heavy record of sabbath
Sabotage? The writ and nwversay die are heavy
EXCELLENT!
Ian Gillan along with Plant had the best vocal in rock history
Vahagn Hakobyan Gillan was much better life than Plant.
Plant lost his voice in 1972
Ian Gillan is the first real metal artist in the history of rock
Ian fuckin gillan screams are unique..
I mean was there even anyone doing the screams he was doing in the early 70's???
+Harold Herrera
Arthur Brown.
+Harold Herrera glenn hughes with trapeze.
+Harold Herrera Robert Plant
+Harold Herrera No. Not that kind of screaming. You could hear hints of it in James Brown and Beatles music and stuff like that, but he was the first to bring it in as a trademark hard rock thing.
