    You're a genius! This is great stuff, the raw acoustic really brings out the musicality of Sabbath, this shows they never cranked out meaningless sludge, each song is a work of art, thanks for posting.

      @PhilJakes  9 лет назад +23

      Eric Anderson thanks man...that's really what i "discovered" when i started breaking the sabbath tunes down to the basic elements. For a "metal" band the stuff is insanely musical and beautiful.

      Phil Jakes Amen! Ingenious lyrics, melodies, individual talent, etc. You have really nailed a brilliant style. The Philharmonic should play Sabbath but not tell the audience until the end. Utter shock & awe amongst the jewelry rattlers!

      well done man! It's funny how much classical music/ influence shows through metal music when you take the distortion away. Just awesome! and by no way do I mean just Sabbath. You can hear it almost any band across majority of the different genres of metal.

    tHANKS AGAIN!!
    This aught to show a lot of those book learned/metronome hypnotized/mode heads, what a good ear, can do for ones musical skills. I played for almost 20 years, before I ever knew what a major scale or mode was! All my guitar playin friends used to be amazed, with all their lessons, and teachers, telling them all how important theory is, before you can get up on a stage, and play a night of classic rock for people. They'd come over my house, with a tape, and say, "what do you think about this.... (all the time knowing that if I liked something they'd made me listen to, that I'd, figure it out right there and then for them. It used to be easy for me. I'd say... "well it goes something like this, (and I'd proceed to figure out the bass line, which in turn would teach me the chords, from there I could more or less figure what key the lead was in. I remember once I figured out the entire side of Back In Black in about an hour or so. (Rhythm guitar) were like "shit, how do you do that?" I'd answer by askin them, how do you sit and listen to some guy go on about the cycle of 5ths, and modes. You might as well study calculus if you're going to look at music that way. I got into it to be a rebel, to have fun, party and NOT work at a 9-5, and spend years in some college learning about some boring theories. Hell I went to every rehearsal with a 6 pak of bud can tall boys, a pint of Jack, and a few nice "J's". I live in NJ which is called "The Cover Band Capitol" you pay your dues & make a name for yourself, by 1st playing the circuit for years , doing covers Only then would they let you do a set of originals, that went for everyone that came out of this area. Bruce, Twisted Sister, Prophet, Good Rats, Stir Crazy, TT Quick, Southside Johnny, Beaver Brown, the list goes on and on. So a guy with a good ear for figuring out guitars, and lyrics is like gold here. So if I went on an audition, and the band didn't like me pulling a doobie, a bud Can Tall, and Jack Danials, I'd say ah di os boys, it's your loss not mine. Some bands try to take all the fun out of playing rock and roll, and turn it into a business, expecting you to show up on time for rehersals, saying things like, take it from, the 2nd bar, of the 4th verse, key of blah, blah, 3/4 time. or whatever, oh and by the way, you were 10 minutes late today, don't let it happen again. I'd pack up my gear and be outta there. The most successful bands I ever worked in, we'd jam and party all night long, and we always had a blast. None of that anal "turning music into a College Coarse" BS. Have fun with it. Never forget that.
    Thank you what you do is just fantastic, I love it. Keep up the great work.

    Hey man, thanks for putting these together. I have a very deep emotional connection to the majority of Sabbath songs. I always love hearing them a new way. Keep doing what you're doing. Dirty women, all moving parts, gypsy the entire Never say Die album, Killing yourself to live, wicked world, hell man just do em all.
    Die young as well. Although I prefer Ozzy I feel like die young was the absolute pinnacle of Tony's playing.
