@@nashidmamoon9151 No,lol. I just had a lawless childhood..It caught up to me though..I just thought for the Crew they would've done a better job because they deserve it. If they had to sign off on that then they settled for way less than what there worth.
Geezer is the fucking man. What a fucking gifted lyricist and just awesome bass player. I doubt I'd ever have taken bass so seriously as an instrument if it wasn't for what Geezer achieved with it in Sabbath. Raw, in your face but with such great little melodies and harmonies going on. Every band should have a bass player like him!
The bass is a much underrated instrument. It's what makes me listen to a band more intently if they have a distinct bass sound, really lifts the music.
You know this was the best band ever, I was around when they started out and still follow them today, love their stories they should get together and write one book with all the funny stuff in it. Long may you live lads

Get ozzy‘s autobiography, it‘s fckng AMAZING. I had the best laughs all the way through (i’ve got the audibook version). Tony‘s biography is really good too
Poor Bill at the end always the butt of their jokes, they did everything to him put his birthday cake on his head , stuck their fingers up his nose, woke him up with a mirror in his face, put speakers under his bed. No wonder he had a heart attack !
@@joelpoitras6226 I have an unpublished photo from a house/ studio they used taken in a kitchen with birthday cake all over Bill's head and Ozzy sticking a finger up his nose. The studio is on my channel ( not the photo ) it's called ' Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman house' :)
I’m Irish myself, love the English accents so much, Burrmingmm haha. Britain and Ireland have got the best accents of all time. And characters!. Ozzy used to walk around Birmingham with an empty guitar case!, ha hahaha.
Just reading Ozzy's biography at the moment and it would make a FANTASTIC movie. There is sadness, there is triumph, there is SO much droll 'Brummie' humour, and what a soundtrack! The interview here, where they're all in big leather chairs, is a taster of the constant piss taking and frustration with each other. Only true friends can love, and hate each other at the same time, as much as this.
I'm laughing just from seeing them laughing, these guys are the best, the most important thing in a band is that the members of the band can still laugh together from a funny story or a joke or other funny situation, it shows that the condition in the band is healthy, thanks for sharing
Something I’ve always wondered about these old bands that go way back, especially Sabbath, do they keep in constant contact with each other? Like we all have good friends that we call up every other day or so. I wonder if they do the same?
You don't need to be in constant contact with someone to be friends. As long as you can pick up where you left off then that's all that matters, and they seem to be able to do that.
4:07 - I grew up in Detroit and my friend's father was a former biker that went from a custom motorcycle seat maker to a Honda dealership to 2 Honda Dealerships and part owner of a Cadillac dealership...anyway, my friend's father's friend who was a still a biker and coke dealer was smoking a joint with us in the back of the Honda dealership and Zeppelin came on in the shop and he proceeded to tell us a story - said he was the delivery man for the coke at one of Zepp's Detroit shows. When he got there, one of Zepp's handlers dumped half a kilo out on a tray and the band and hangers on just grabbed straws and stuck them in the pile and snorted away, this reminded me of that.
Are you serious? Spinal Tap's Stonehenge was a spoof of Sabbath?...after all these years I've NEVER heard the Spinal Taps boys say "we got that from Sabbath."
Great comment by Ozzie at the end that the fact they can still have a good f__king laugh together is way more important to him and gold records and fortunes. He may often sound out of it, but he still comes out with gems like this and others against war. (And "War Pigs" is still the best heavy anti-war song ever recorded.)
Thanks man. Yeah, that is a shame, Bill was an excellent drummer (probably still drumming for some bands?). That's two bad things I've heard about Sharon now. Fancy Ozzie giving in to her in such an important matter. I saw them in Sydney in 1974, supported by a then-unknown (no recording yet) AC / DC.
Tony also has an excellent speaking voice; he should provide the narration to any sensible forthcoming Rock 'n' Roll documentary. He could WRITE his own narration, as he's a decent writer, too.
🇨🇦👑🇬🇧 I think Geezer’s just as crazy as Ozzy , he just flew under the radar and Ozzy just FLEW ! All four geniuses , literally no one went to their concerts ‘straight’ back in the old days ,there was enough acid there to sink a ship, so I guess we were all crazy too ! ✊🏼to friendship✊🏼fun and ✊🏼freedom 🕊 ( no pun intended with the 😮dove of peace )
3:19 Tony isn't exaggerating folks! That's how small the British Isles are ... From Birmingham it's approx 40 miles to the border of Wales, 170 miles will get you across to Ireland and 180 to Northern Ireland and about 190 miles will get you to Scotland.
It's important to note that when Geezer mentions "skinheads" he's likely NOT talking about Neo Nazis. In England, the original S/Hs were left-wing and made up of white, black and kids from more recent Indian/Pakistani immigrant families. They liked Ska and Reggae as much as they did Punk. The Neo Nazis hijacked that scene largely when Oi!-Punk band Skrewdriver was radicalized by the fascist National Front.
Why do people ask for these? They are NEVER good and are always made for money or only entertainment and never genuine. Only documentaries or footage of bands in the studio creating music it really means anything
Funniest part is 8:40 onwards, sad they couldn't keep the camaraderie going thats evident in this reunion interview but a glimpse at least into the humour inside the band.
Bottom line for me is it was some awesome fucking music and a good time to be alive when it was all new hearing it for the first time. Even the shows were fun then
About Sharon, her dad, Don Arden, was really close, business-wise, with Mike Jeffreys, who was Jimi Hendrix's EVIL manager. I wonder then, if Sharon may be able to shed some light on Jimi's death, a half-century later?? Peter Grant and Richard Cole, should have picked up Hendrix as a Client, when they had that chance--but--who knows what may then have happened, to the New Yardbirds/Led Zeppelin??
N.I.B. is why I play the bass guitar today. Years later is when I discovered that Geezer wrote mist of the songs. I treasure the first four Black Sabbath albums.
Tudum64 ,Roy Rogers was a famous TV cowboy back in the 50s. His horse was called Trigger. Poor Bill made the pioneering comment and Ozzy shot him down 😂
3:21 he's talking about Clearwell castle ( Tony) it's England not Wales I live just up the road , they also used the house on my channel Ozzy, Randy and Bob Daisley also wrote Blizzard of Ozz there
My most vivid memory of Ozzie Osborne was when he sang the "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" song with his wife at Wrigley Field. You could see that his brains were totally fried. He could not even stand up strait. It was sad to watch.
This video is compiled from excerpts from multiple interviews spanning decades. If you mean like the audio at 4:51 , that's from the audio conversion/ compression process. The audio was originally on 8mm film. Thank God somebody did it. The origional is likely gone.
Elton and Freddie were great, but this is the movie I want to see.
As long as they do it better than the dirt. That was crap. Going by that movie I think my friends a I had a crazier youth.
Me too

Needs to happen someday, this 4 mfs changed music history
I would love to see that movie in black and white
There will never be a band as cool as Sabbath. I love all of them but Geezer just seems like the chillest dude ever.
Of course. He's the bass player.
😁🤣
Excellent band, been my favourite since l left school in 81,
War Pigs one of the best anti-war songs ever. I saw them in Sydney in 1974 with a then-unknown (pre-recording) AC / DC.
forestsoceansmusic how was changes? It must of been amazing listening to that love because I’ve heard it live in Australia and it was amazing
The way Geezer tell a story, gets me everytime.
Love Geezer
Well, he is the main lyricist.
He is Geeza Bootla
You can't beat Tony's silliness, either!
Swithin Barclay -So then Billy Ward is Really the Straight Man

He's the best metal bass player that's a fact
The chemistry between these guys…you know damn well they’ll love/hate each other forever.
The Brummie accents make it even funnier.
The whole black sabbath experience sounds like a total laugh lol.
Geezer is the funniest, he could have been a stand up comedian.
Gillan: How do you visualize it?
Geezer: "Loifsize o' course".
Right Geezer telling a story is golden material
"Stonehenge ..." and so a legend was born.
Led Zeppelin used a SENSIBLE Stonehenge set/stage dressing, in their last ever (while Bonzo was still with us) American tour in 1977.
Nobody knew who they were...or...what they were doing.
And as far as I know, THAT was their FINAL North American show, featuring Bonzo; that Sunday, and I was there in Oakland, CA USA, in '77.
You know this was the best band ever, I was around when they started out and still follow them today, love their stories they should get together and write one book with all the funny stuff in it. Long may you live lads

"I once told me Roadie Del Preston to go out and get 1,000 brown m&m's or I wouldn't go on stage that night."

I wish there was footage of Ozzy jumping off stage to beat up the guy that was beating up the little kid

They dang near killed him with paint one time
They set him on fire more than once
Brummies always seem to be tuned in for a good laugh.
nothing more spinal tap than the stonehenge story

Who would play Ozzy?
Marsbonfire the guy that played Ozzy in the dirt did a great job it would be awesome to see him play Ozzy in a Black Sabbath movie

Nah they don't talk. Both Toni and Ozzy have said as much towards the end of their last tour.

@@Syklonus That's the way true friends are.
Through their lawyers, yes.
Geezer is a bonafide comedian
That last row at the end is great. Great to see them all really having a laugh, so much history.
I like when Tony was shocked by Vinnie Appice's tiny drum kit.... "a childs toy."
I've always loved the clip of them at the end.
Yup, that's when I thought, That's Black Sabbath right there.

The OZ looks way better when he stopped dying his mop! Just a throw back to the old days!
Love, love, love, love, Love Ozzie's voice. ❤
Imagine how serious that beating was that Ozzy gave him if the guy ended up with cast on his arm and his leg.
Apparently Ozzy was quite the fighter back in the day. Who would of thought?
He used to punch band mates , even Sharon, he'd beat on her. Straight sucker punch!
Crazy Sagittarius
Nathan Dewitt. Ozzy once saw two men beating up one other guy so Ozzy started on those two which turned out to be the police.
koshar44 sharon would beat on him too. she talked about it on the view. they we’re equally physically abusing. don’t make it sound worse than it is.

Yeah experiencing Sabbath and all the others growing up was something to cherish. Those times were solid gold
9:40 "I hate you " lmfao ! I could listen to thier stories for hours omg...
That is funny I totally forgot about the plugs and voltage differences. I remember seeing them in early 70 period what a blast.
Such lovely gents. 🇬🇧
Sniffing triggers ass .... killed me!!! Lmao
i love everyone just absolutely shitting on bill at the end, it’s like me and my buddies
At least Tony didn't set him on fire again.
Oh man, wish I could understand everything they said in the "pioneer" section. Incredibly funny
I saw an interview with Tony and he told a humorous story about how they used to play jokes on Bill Ward. They used to love to set him on fire.
Who's Tommy???
Elizabeth, yes, that’s right but, wrong RUclips!!
"Funny" and " Black Sabbath" are two subjects I never thought I would see in the same title...
They should have included the story where Gillan jumped to his knees in the dry ice and audience member yelled Its Ronny James Dio!!!
Does anyone know where to find the full interview of the band when they're all together on that lounge suite at 8:44?
black sabbath deserve biographical musical drama
Why do people ask for these? They are NEVER good and are always made for money or only entertainment and never genuine.
Only documentaries or footage of bands in the studio creating music it really means anything
Bloody funny !!!! And what a history they have together , from the home of metal Birmingham 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Tim Wilcox 🤘🤘🤘🤘😀🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤙🤙🤙👍
Real rock and roll lifestyle
Robert Plant almost became a Sabbath vocalist; now THAT, would have been WAY cool!!
That would've been incredibly odd
Yeah but not Ozzy cool
Funniest part is 8:40 onwards, sad they couldn't keep the camaraderie going thats evident in this reunion interview but a glimpse at least into the humour inside the band.
