Something to keep in mind when you're watching or listening to these bands from the early 70's or late 60's: At that point, they didn't know what they were to become. It's awesome to see the raw hunger, the desire to just ROCK, the energy, before they had a reputation and style to 'live up to'. This is when legends were made.
@@MidnightmidwayPeople like me? No, dimwit, I’m not talking about people putting him down, I am referring to his lack of mentions when media talk about “greatest drummers.” I think the same applies to Barriemore Barlow of Jethro Tull.
@@Midnightmidway First, I do apologize for calling you a dimwit -- I didn't realize you had a congenital problem. Second, yes, he is criminally underrated. Go ahead and pull up any "Best Rock Drummer" list and he doesn't hit the top 20 in any, which is ridiculous in context of the massive influence Sabbath had on metal.
Bill Ward is a LEGEND as is Black Sabbath! I saw them live in Houston Texas back in 2013 minus Bill Ward. But it is one of the Greatest concert experiences of my life and they opened with War Pigs!!!
The two microphones are because of the recording for the film. One of them are going to the P.A. (Live sound in the room), and one is going to the recording setup.
Bill Ward, the drummer for Black Sabbath, was a contemporary of John Bonham. They appeared on the local scene together and seemed to share many qualities
I’m an old school punk guy. Not sure who criticizes Ozzy’s voice? Is it other metal fans? Curious. Because anybody that started whining about his voice would get a boot out the door in my house.
I used to see Black Sabbath all the time.At the Fillmore West in San Francisco.He is the epitome of a rock star. And the drummer was unbelievable right
as an old guy, i can tell you that 1 mic was for the performance, and the other went directly to a tape recorder, you may also notice mics on the front of amps in some old videos ;) big love to all people :)
My fave reaction to War Pig. Bar none. I don't know what those drums did to Bill Ward to cause him to beat them so savagely but damn. Dude was absolutely going crazy. Thanks. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Rawk on.
Thank you for reacting to the live version. Someone made a modern music video of this song and it kills the soul and vibe of the song. So many reactors pick that version. Verdy, there is new Babymetal for you.
Killer, early live version of this song, with different lyrics but a very powerful, raw metal vibe. incredible performance by everyone. YES, Bill Ward is beating the crap out of drum kit! Iommi on guitar is especially heavy, it is hard to believe but their great music has aged as well as anyone else from that great era. Ultimate band for a deep dive, this song is also great in front of 250,000 fans at the legendary California Jam 1974. Incredible set, wipping up the crowd, well worth checking out as are Deep Purple and ELPs sets there, one of the best shows ever. Good luck on your Sabbath Voyage, do them by album like you have others, start with their self titled debut and go from there, you will not regret it, they will blow your mind! Enjoy. 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎸🎶🔥
This is hands down, the best reaction to this video. The passion expressed on your face as it is hitting your soul. Feeling everything we felt when we first heard this performance. You are a true music fan, that is something you cannot fake or hide.
GET it, Verdy! I've been a way from your chan for a while, the braces looked great, but now does, too, congrats! Yes, this song/vid is one that compels you to rewind and watch this epic greatness again and again!
On top of their amazing musicianship are the excellent lyrics. Great musicians are one thing, but to have meaningful lyrics that tickle the brain is super rare.
If you notice too Bill is holding his drumsticks backwards. I always thought that was just to keep them from breaking 😆 but I've heard it was just for more sound.
8:49 Two mics were often used during a live recording back then, one went through to the PA system and another went to the tape. It was a quick way to route the sound where you wanted it to go. Hope this helps
Another really good song from this same Gig is' Fairies wear Boots' it shows the drummer Bill Ward from behind but also shows the bass player Geezer Butler you get to watch his fingers fly on the bass👍
@@gregbacon9808I was at California jam 74 also most of the day I was in that corner right below Emerson lake and Palmer's balloon was that Greg lake went up in
@ I was the guy walking from up front towards the back of the crowed before ELP came on and a person threw a jug of water at me then all of a sudden 100’s of water jugs went flying Everywhere LOL. I had made my way up front just before Black Oak Arkansas, then Black Sabbath and Deep Purple. That was an Awesome Day to remember.👍🏻
@@gregbacon9808 still one of the best concerts of my life and I've been to a lot I was 15 when I went to Cal jam The friend I went with was in his early twenties I think he was a friend of my brother who didn't want to go because he wanted to go to drag races somewhere 🤣
I also wanted to tell you that in 1970 the lyrics are totally different than lyrics on the album. You need to listen to a later version to really understand how great this song is. The words changed, and the meaning of the song changed.
What an awesome performance! The 2 mics are usually for noise isolation. It helps to eliminate hum and feedback for clearer vocals. Useful on a small stage with a lot of loud instruments.
Ozzy being legible. Bill Ward abusing drums as if they owe him money, Iomi losing the tips of two fingers and still making these sounds along with geezer butlers driving bassris? AMAZING!
2 mics were invented by Owsley Stanley, sound engineer/chemist for the Grateful Dead, in order to eliminate feedback in the vocalists mic. He also designed their logo, created the Wall of Sound, and made the best LSD of the era. I can attest. ✌️❤️🎶
Perhaps somebody already addressed this in the comments but the reason for the second microphone is usually one goes out to the main PA system and the second goes to a recording device or sometimes each microphone would go to its own separate PA in an attempt to get the vocals louder than the guitars in the band blasting away behind the vocalist. Sound reinforcement was really in its infancy at this point
I just saw Iron Maiden in Chicago. They still do an amazing live show. You should check out ANYTHING Live by Iron Maiden. I think Powerslave was one of their best, but they are all good.
I think I'm in love with her.. I can see her heart through her eyes,, it's as if she has 2 hearts, one for each eye because she shows love through her eyes,, I don't know if it's just me, but that's what I see in her
You gave ozzy (vocals), lead guitar (tony iommi), and drums (bill ward) a shout-out, but it was harder to single out the bass player (geezer butler). Please please check out "INTO THE VOID." Geezer will blow you away with his phenomenal bass playing. (Geezer and Bill are an unmatchable rhythm section).
I think you overlook the base player! He is what gives them their sound. He is the only base player that stands out in music. The bass is what gives this music its sinister tone. Geezer Butler is the most powerful bass player I know.

'Sabbath bloody Sabbath' (1973) However, drug and alcohol abuse... and financial mismanagement... affected Black Sabbath by 1974 and the album 'Sabotage' (1975) was their angriest album to date; it was a precursor to what became thrash metal in the 80's.

Ozzy Osbourne was the lead singer of Black Sabbath then left to do a Solo Projects. Roni James Dio was the lead singer then .after some time he reunion with the Band . This year Ozzy when in to the RHOF as a Solo artist & Also in there with Sabbath.
Bill Ward is an absolute BEAST in this video. 🤘🏽
Swing the Chain and Break Out for me
He was a young man full of piss and vinegar as the old timers once said.
That was amazing power and precision. Wow. Yes I've seen it live from the audience.
I read they had to take his drums out on a stretcher after this performance! Lol.
@KB-xt1gj Skins can only take so much Stick. The whole kit was probably in the body shop for a week.

Bill Ward has always been criminally underrated. One of the great drummers of the 1970s.
Underrated?? Where and when? Ask any Metal heads about Godfather Bill. He's a God.

A few good drummers are underrated. Everyone says john bonham was the hardest hitter,
but watch Clem Burke
(blondie drummer).
He hits hard !
@@matt01506 Bonham is cool, but soooooo overrated. Like you said, so many greats are never being mentioned at all. Like Jon Hiseman as well
Bill Ward is a LEGEND as is Black Sabbath! I saw them live in Houston Texas back in 2013 minus Bill Ward. But it is one of the Greatest concert experiences of my life and they opened with War Pigs!!!
Bill Ward steals the show on this one.
The two microphones are because of the recording for the film. One of them are going to the P.A. (Live sound in the room), and one is going to the recording setup.
Thanks much for that. I always wondered about that when I saw it. Other bands in this timeframe too.
I always thought it was to make some sort of "stereo" sound on stage, but this makes way more sense :)
Trop!
Its all the little licks, fills and transitions that make this track amazing....it never gets repetitive
Bill Ward, the drummer for Black Sabbath, was a contemporary of John Bonham. They appeared on the local scene together and seemed to share many qualities
Legendary…Early raw performance…Stunning…
My favorite live Black Sabbath performance hands down !
Fun reaction to a classic.
Man the 70's has such great drummers. Bill Ward doesn't get named much but he was up there with the best.
Bill Ward, John Bonham and Cozy Powell were behemoths
Hey, you got your braces off and are smiling and showing your new choppers. Congratulations!
A tip for future Black Sabbath vids: Play AS LOUD AS POSSIBLE!! They did at ALL their gigs!!
A lot of people criticize Ozzy,s singing. But no one else sounds like him, and you can tell it's Ozzy as soon as you hear him.
I’m an old school punk guy. Not sure who criticizes Ozzy’s voice? Is it other metal fans? Curious. Because anybody that started whining about his voice would get a boot out the door in my house.
Masterpiece
Black Sabbath forever
1968-2019
The drummer kills it. Young Ozzy rules. Guitar and Bass with atmospherics
Thanks for that! Didn't knew this performance and it's fkn tight! 🤟👹❤️
I love that she's already hooked on the drums before Bill Ward even gets "serious" about it. Dude played those drums like they owed him money.
Yeah! Her reaction was just like my reaction back in 1993 when I bought my first cd.. paranoid… 3 months before I bought by first cd player!
Yeah , just like Pau from the Warning does to her drums. She is a heavy hitter
I used to see Black Sabbath all the time.At the Fillmore West in San Francisco.He is the epitome of a rock star. And the drummer was unbelievable right

for me GREATEST album of all time (IMHO) every track is legendary and versatile.....
And metal was born. Greetings from Belgium 🇧🇪 Ozzy for president 💯❤️🤘
I saw somewhere that this concert is actually from Brussels not Paris
Ozzy for Prez. Ya I like that. But for what country? lol.
we love all super classics that Verdy brings into the channel!
I wish she would react to the Warning.
Sabbafff!!! Oh yessss. You can’t go wrong with anything by these guys. The inventors of Heavy Metal. Fact.
Thank you for reacting to the live version. Someone made a modern music video of this song and it kills the soul and vibe of the song. So many reactors pick that version. Verdy, there is new Babymetal for you.

Their first few albums are classics. They came to town around '73 and a year later.
On top of their amazing musicianship are the excellent lyrics. Great musicians are one thing, but to have meaningful lyrics that tickle the brain is super rare.
There is a band that has great lyrics on their songs called the Warning and they Rock hard. Check them out
Black Sabbath 1968-eternity🤘

One Mic goes to the pa system. The other was for recording the show.
Always good to see you Verdy ! More please
Bill Ward and Geezer Butler are just fire .
Thanks Verdy! Great version of this.
PARANOID album by them is a must 😊
IMHO GREATEST ALBUM IN HISTORY....
absolutely legendary
One mic is for the PA system, the other is for the recording gear.
Godfathers of Metal
Back in the day monitor...stage sound/and house were produced on separate systems. Hence 2 microphones.
Another really good song from this same Gig is' Fairies wear Boots' it shows the drummer Bill Ward from behind but also shows the bass player Geezer Butler you get to watch his fingers fly on the bass👍

What an awesome performance!
The 2 mics are usually for noise isolation. It helps to eliminate hum and feedback for clearer vocals. Useful on a small stage with a lot of loud instruments.

Oh wow! The BEST version
i saw them in the uk early 70s i hadnt realised how powerful the drumming and bass was till saw them
BONZO lives forever 🎉
Bill Ward... a slammer!! where did they find him?
Ozzy being legible. Bill Ward abusing drums as if they owe him money, Iomi losing the tips of two fingers and still making these sounds along with geezer butlers driving bassris? AMAZING!
We benefit today from someone taking a camera and recording the birth of heavy metal.
A full reaction to the full Paranoid album is in order. :) Still one of the best metal albums of all time.

Face-melting metal, and it's one of the first (if not the first) ever examples of it.
Thanks for reacting to. Amazing! 👏
So good! and yes, try out The Wizard, NIB, Black Sabbath etc as already suggested.
Bill Ward / John Bonham and Neil Peart all JAZZ based drummers....that blew me away when I learned that.
Ol, I was wrong. Great version
yeah the one with that dumb distraction movie is awful!
Back then they would do 3 shows in a day!!!
It's definitely Verdy of You! :)
This song was listed as number 5 out of 100 of all time according to Rolling Stone Magazine.....
It's an inspired performance!
That was intense!

Your smile looks great! My daughter still has her braces. Still waiting.😊
🏆 Your journey from K-pop is now complete.
Little stage = Great men!
Bill Ward beats those drums like they owe him money LUL
Yeah the same way Pau from the Warning does. 👍
It sounds (to me) so much like Bonham💪🏼. Ps: You wouldn't understand Ozzy talkig sometimes, but his voice is so pristine and clear when he sings!
Lucky you to witness this version. Peace/JT
Você está linda!!
Cara...isso é 1970!! O Sabbath poderoso ao vivo!!
"Live" was a nice choice.
Verdy, the start of your Sabbath journey. Please do the first 8 albums. Blow your mind. Thank you
YES !!
Congratulations on the braces - looking good!
You gave ozzy (vocals), lead guitar (tony iommi), and drums (bill ward) a shout-out, but it was harder to single out the bass player (geezer butler).
Please please check out
"INTO THE VOID." Geezer will blow you away with his phenomenal bass playing.
(Geezer and Bill are an unmatchable rhythm section).
I think you overlook the base player! He is what gives them their sound. He is the only base player that stands out in music. The bass is what gives this music its sinister tone. Geezer Butler is the most powerful bass player I know.
cocaine is a hell of a drug lol...70"s looked fun AF

c'mon Verdy there is like 50 just as good songs like this from the band Black Sabbath. Do please gogo👌
Without Geezer Butler there would never have been any Black Sabbath!
Absolutely
The amps are behind the drummer so he can hear the music, now it’s way different
Just think, this was before the actual recording took place. The lyrics were not even finalized.
Nice reaction. He's not singing all the same lyrics as the studio version.
There's an even earlier version floating around on YT and the song was about Walpurgis night.
@@ramonacosta2647 Noticed that too: thought maybe the amount of drugs he took, correlate to the alteration in the order he sung it
Damn they built drum kits to last back in the seventies.
