BLACK SABBATH - "Snowblind" (Live Video) 

"Alright. We're going to do a number now from one of our earlier albums. Something entitled Snowblind." How did you not understand that? Haha jk I think I got most of it right

@@elizabethc.z I understood it because I’m from Black Country.

@@elizabethc.z no way he is saying all that, the ammount of words is way less. no way you didnt make this sh.t up. or maybe you pronouncce all of them at the same time. some alien sh.t i hear "allright, we are gonna play now from our other album something entitled snowblind" honestly it's so difficult to understand cause he drops half of the consonants and does not space the words at all. i relly doubth he said number. I had to 0.5 the video to hear this.

@@elizabethc.z i'm a turkish guy, my english is mediocre but i love black sabbath :)

I was literally about to comment about that lol!

Seriously, he’s incredible. Imagine doing that kinda bassery every night on tour for 50 years lol

He's not oñly a great bassist, he's written most of the lyrics to all the sabbath tunes.

Wonder where cliff got his inspiration?

@Narex Moravian was Cliff a big pothead? Interesting..I didn’t know this?!

@@coolhandluke3223 Lol. Watch "Cliff 'em All" son.

Yes that Geezer, and also, Ozzy had long been relegated to the side of the stage

I’m guessing the “cocaine” part was Ozzy ‘s idea then lol.

@@RandyRhoadsRules3 All of Black Sabbath were heavily into drugs, not just Ozzy

@@kane0ner Yes I know that, it just sounds like something Ozzy would think of to me lol

@@RandyRhoadsRules3 when your on cocaine, you're up all night. Sun comes up and your still awake only to pass out later and waste the rest of the day.

Oh so it wasn't me

Audience \m/😆\m/

The guy lost his finger tips too in a metal sheet factory before going professional. What a beast!

@Shit Hawk Ok you've enlightened me.... you're so wise 🤣🖕

I saw them on "The End" tour and I was amazed at Tony's playing. Every solo note for note like on the albums.

Chad Bartel, me too, even after 48 years of listening.

@Shit Hawk wtf are you talking about.

Vinny Appice was great on Mob Rules. But yeah Bill is the best.

Vinny, Tony, Geezer, and Dio were a terrific combo though.

@@longshotkdb cool info🎸🌿🔥

love bill ward to me best rock drummer' after john henry BONZO bonham' billy's real good👍

@@robertcarrico2091 aye, as far as i know geezer butler and bill ward wrote the lyrics, ozzy didn't write any at all! cheers.

Live at Astbury NJ has loads of pick noise! Love it. Maybe i should adapt it into my style??

So cool man, probably because Tony used light guage strings and tuned down, I honestly don't know how he managed not to accidentally bend out of key when playing songs as heavy as this

Bill ward demolishes another drum kit.

Was really happy to see Geezer playing that Ric.👍

Indeed

Sure, if your definition of crystal clarity is starting each vocal phrase two entire notes off key.

Great band but I think Jimi Hendrix started heavy metal and forever changed music altogether ☮️💜🇺🇸🎸🐐💯

​@@brucerabideau2872Hendrix obviously changed music forever, being the single most influential guitarist of all time... But what are you on about him and metal? Everyone knows Sabbath invented metal.

Sabbath is heavy yes love it but by the end of 68-70 Jimi was just playing some of his songs faster louder more bass and Mitch was breaking drum sticks and that’s what I meant by starting the Heavy Sabbath musical change. Jimi sounded like a little bit of all music even Rap when he played. ☮️💜🇺🇸🎸🐐💯😎🎱

Se eu cheirar toneladas de cocaina antes do show acho q também vou conseguir.

oh yeah.... spot on.......the nose.... his tuning is way off on this one

@@santanna4894 ahuahuahuahuahauhau

🤣🤣

@@santanna4894 pior que n vai não hein doidão

HAHAHAHA i just wrote the same. thats so true ! hahaha

Lmao I was gonna write this too 😆

BILINOUMINAUNAU SNOWBLIND

“alright we’re gonna do a number now off one of our earlier albums its a number entitled “snowblind” not that hard to understand

@@luizguilherme8298 Ahahahahahhaha FOOKIN YEAH

Not tuned at all.

@@diegoescobardiaz6552 His pitch is fine here, what are you talking about?

@@epitaph3988 In the video there are many examples but you could check: 1:59

Ozzy is definitely out of key but more than makes up for it with his performance and raw passionate delivery 👏

@@Voodoo66Chile he’s “off” from the album version because the song was played in E tuning not C# like the album

Now your the Older Friend! Lol Me Too!

I saw them on that tour. It was my 3 rd time seeing Sabbath live. Hate to admit it but Van Halen blew them away on that tour. It was the beginning of the end for Oz and Sabbath

Rob’s Motovlog fuck that shit! Sabbath rules. Go look at Smilin Ed. They were an energetic young band that Sabbath helped out. They put on a great show. I saw that tour. I already had the vh album. But vh are just a small band that Americans took to, I mean Why not Montrose in ‘73?? Huh? Budgie in’ 71?? Why not Yesterday and Today in ‘76?? Why not so many other groups. Vh to me is just another band to pass as I flip though my hundreds of better rock groups that kicked major ass in the 70’s. UFO??? No one was better than early Priest and Scorpions were the greatest of them all. But Americans need to hear it on the radio. That has always been your downfall. I was a kid growing up in Jersey and we went to the record store every day but especially on Tuesday’s. New releases!! We bought everything that looked cool. Scorpions were the best of the best. No, not the Scorpions you think you know, that is Americanized bullshit. The Scorpions featuring the guitarist eddy wished he could be. Uli Roth! Go play Scorpions In Trance!! Or Taken By Force!! Then go play some Vh😂

Hola

Ha ha, you saw 2 rock giants, together, at a good time.lucky dawg

Hell yea Frank ,, Bill Ward is maniac on the fucking drums!!!!! And he is a gentleman as a person ,, I would refuse to see Sabbath without Bill Ward and I mean that sincerely,!!! Love the Sabbath,,, Ozzy kind of sucks at the air guitar but love the band dearly!!!

He's insane. The best ever! God bless Willian Thomas Ward!

+Jerry Jocoy Agreed. Awesome bro! Bill is Black Sabbath!

Funny how you're talking like you know the guys personally and you think his name is "Lommi"

His name is Tony Iommi, his last name starts with an I as in Igloo. lol I'm at a loss for how you can know much about the band and never notice that or hear someone pronounce it. It's pronounced like "Eye-oh-me"

Contrary to popular belief, cocaine does little harm to the human body, it's the crap people add to it and the non ether processes that fuck up your body, ask any honest physician.

And so rare that all the original members of an iconic rock band are still alive. What a wasted opportunity when they released 13. Bill should definitely have played on the album if not the tour

@@johnraxster6285 you think it would have been the same with him that old? Black sabbath's style requires hard hitting drumming not sure an old man can do that. Brad wilk did fine rick rubin fucked up royally though with the production

@@speedking7224 the problem was more Bill's health. I'm sure they would've loved to have him on otherwise.

They did more drugs than the Ramones and all of the original members of The Ramones are dead lol

on coke

He was high as fuck

he ALWAYS has a wonderful time on stage. I saw him 5 times solo, and 2 times with sabbath, and I think one time he wasn't feeling it. Might have been sick or something, but all the rest were amazing! Especially on the 13 tour.

Dirty Women same concert Iommi is awesome

@@ccuesta39 "this cocaine makes me feel i'm in this song"

They're also all full of coke. After a while it fucks up your voice.

+Daveed86 Try gig after gig singing like that. Very taxing on the vocal chords!

+Daveed86 this is what I thought. Well observed. Iommi and butler works so well on c#. Iommi solos were made for .011 strings haha

+Daveed86 Yes..I stepped this down 3 half tones and its the same key as the album...but somehow Ozzies voice sounds lower on this live version, than on the album..(thats with both versions at C#).

I think his nostrils would have been a mess as well

MrTURBOJOHN this isn't an underrated album '_' x)

Akira I know it's considered one of the 5 greats, but people seem to talk way more about paranoid and master of reality way over this album, and I think it's just as great

Phobetor Nyx sabotage is usually not included...

MrTURBOJOHN Most of Sabbath's most underrated albums are the best. Vol.4 and Sabotage are both in my top 3 (Master of Reality will always be No.1)

***** I really love Sabotage, but people don't seem to put it with the other 5. Megalomania is absolutely amazing, and that is definitely the most underrated of them all. I can't pick a favorite between the first 5 albums, I suck at picking favorites...

He's really making making sure no one misses the point! Oh btw - COCAINE! And let's not forget - COCAINE! There it is - COCAINE!

to make him sure everyone understands about what is the song

I think its the actual lyric

It’s on the album, it’s just whispered quietly in the background.

It's Spokane not cokaine!

Yes, the vocals are amazing!

Connor Ferrand hardest working drummer ever

Man, that’s a great metaphor!

I was trying to figure him out and thats the perfect description

Very true, Bill Ward once said, that he doesn't play time, he plays orchestration!!! He always kept the beat, & them some.😀👍👍

No they won't

@@afistfulofpimples1745 Yes they always are.

Absofuckinglutly

Black sabbath for sure are the kings but. Its not metal

@@mr.wilson4085 how I hate when people say this

Absolutely. And the big punches - he lets those notes ring out and drag. Maximum power.

Ozzy did not deserve being in the middle.

He was the leader

We all know everyone was listening because of his riffs.

Tony is the soul of Sabbath. Of course he's in the middle.

😂😂

Hehe - what Mason said!!! :)

Cause lommi is Black Sabbath brother

LOL Exactly.

I thought this was in a different key, either that or ozzy was singing the third.

Really played great here..as always.

Never say that again! Please! Never underrated!

All bassists are underrated.

I could listen to Sabbath forever

I am listening to them forever.

Seems like an intentional contradiction to the certainty of the lyrics in the opening verses. Cocaine makes you feel powerful until you realize how weak you are without it.

@@TheOfficialCaseMade 100% I went on a 9 day binder one time and on like day 5 my nose started bleeding. I kept going though until I was like.... Ok .. I'm fuckin hooked. I felt like a little bitch for like 3 days.... No thx on that stuff.

It really hits those of us who have had snowblind periods. I certainly have.

@@usmcchrisg I did a 10 day run one time. My nose started bleeding on day 5.... Kept going though. Never again!!

@@crypticreality8484 I wish I could boil it down to one misadventure but the government kept some records about it.

I did the same thing when I saw them live ✌️🤘

Oh and Ronnie James Dio! Loved the Dio Sabbath era too

So, you took a 14 hour train to a Sabbath concert? You rule!

A 14 hour train to London in 1978. Those were some determined strangers.

It’s all about Black Sabbath they created Heavy Metal

Damn you !!!! awesome. By some chance, did VH open that show?

What a honor

Every band*

I don't know about every. Love Sabbath though.

You said it bro!

now a days yup lol

EVERY!!!

You mean Cocaine? ❄️

I always koved this . This slide from higher to bottom is very special

COCAINE !

Jaw Tooth that and " Sweet Leaf " 📀🎶🎶

Fuck yea ...hands down

first song i ever learned on electric guitar

True. The riff man, the riff maker, the riff wizard.

@@alexalexin9491 The Riffzard.

Him and Page

@@westvirginiagroyper485 Iommi - making riffs Page - stealing riffs

@Redrum the University Of Riffs will be named after Iommi.

Great! Hahaha

Same and put my speaker right in front of the open window.

John Campbell I did that while the albums were current. Ie 1974. Only thing that sucked that the neighbor on the right was a cop! One time he just walked in , came upstairs. and made me take them out of the windows. The album that was on at the time was the Red Grand Funk album Good thing I had already smoked . He must have smelled it. True story. A few years later his son busted us with a quarter pound. Belonged to a chick in the car so we all took the fall for her. Smoke it - Get High!

didja murder the pigs ?

Too good! Gotta share

Nick Oscar I thought the exact same thing!

Nick Oscar the Music and the Drug wave Murged into one.

All of sabbaths live stuff, has that synergy. No matter what was going on off stage, when they hit the stage and started jamming, the music is what was in control. I mean its Bill ward, Iommi, Geezer and Ozzy we're talking about here, these are thoroughbred rock stars, I'd expect nothing less lol.

It was all the acid they took together.

yes..

Iommis tone never sounded better and his lead at the end is one of the best he's ever done IMO.Great vibrato and an incredibly fat lead sound too.

go and see their the end tour. they were unbeatable at download

Lee Oliver true!

idk man its 440 usually its a heavier c#

I like more the one done by SOAD.

Tommy's coke twitches are best

It’s not in E. it’s in C#

Vinnie appice in my opinion was Sabbaths best drummer and ward second

Hahahahahah LMFAO😂😂😂😂😂😂

So thats why he's bleeding Powder

Sharon is a very good soul. When she first wanted to push Ozzy's solo career after he left Sabbath she found him in a hotel he'd been holed up in for some time. There were pizza boxes everywhere and remnants from hundreds of drug couriers and she jumped off square in his shit, picked him up and fell in love with him. He said later if that hadn't happened he was going to die in that hotel room, that he had already accepted that. He was depressed from leaving Sabbath and said he had given up. This is why he has never, and will never be without Sharon. Not a perfect love story, but a very true love story.....

Holy shit people are still doing these old asf comments. Heard this one years ago

That's just not true! There's no blood in there!

Watching Ozzy practically seize during the War Pigs solo in Paris will always get me.

Loose = the screw is loose, Lose = learn to spell loser!

@@thisshyboy I love the way he goes crazy during the song Black Sabbath at that Paris show as well.

The best frontman is the one who is just a huge fan of the band behind him

@@robbieclark7828 Great comment man, great comment.

PUG

True

Stones ? the whole sticky fingers as drug addiction thing.

also velvet underground and Jefferson airplane.

Early hard rock band Black Sabbath gave birth to metal

The 2 albums Sabbath put out before Ozzy left are career lows in my opinion. Never say die is the only Sabbath album to ever successfully bore me. The band was going through a lot of issues at the time too. I definitely wouldn't call this a career high. Fantastic performance though and I'd kill to have been able to it in person.

peak was 73

They were pretty good at The California Jam! April 6, 1974 🤷🏻‍♂️

This particular performance was awesome at the Hammersmith. But they were on a decline. This the tour when Van Halen "supposedly" blew them away

@Kevin James Perfectly put!

Indeed They Are

Agreed

the version of Live at Last LP is also good

​​@@pasoneaogreat version but Asbury Park is #1. (Up the nose)

Wow, I've seen about 10+ times, Asbury Park convenient hall, 71, NYC academy of music 🎶 72, Hartford Conn first row 71?72, Ritz theatre Statin island 🏝️ NY 72, Nassau coliseum, 73, backup bands ? Bedlam & Lyrnrd Skyrnd

Oh, come on Alex, you say that about every early Sabbath song you listen to.

@@thefarcountry lol

Chris Thompson ] Old Heads!! NEVER.

My children gonna be lucky when they grow up listening to this

same here. my dad used to play it any time i was in his truck and i kind of forgot about it until i turned 15 and now i’m 16 and absolutely obsessed

Ves

This is one of my favorite Black Sabbath concerts!

yes men

Ozzy is out of tune?

No he`s not

It was even better in the years before this.

@@theinternetkilledmusic2054 74 California jam

@@sotis1756 Yep amazing.

Honestly....Ozzy is still great...40 years later. He has never been a "pure vocalist" in the vein of Halford/Dickinson/Tate/Dio. But he was and still is is a master of making vocal melodies.

I think he sounded pretty bad when he got old. But young Ozzy is above anyone in my book.

Check out Sabbath live at California jam they some attitude back then too

Disco era as well, kick ass

rednecklowlife If you had a Dad that did it right then the young were also raised on them.

rednecklowlife no body raised me on sabbath, I saw them live on 2013, and well now I have 5 lps from them, and 3 cds

I saw them live 1978 you dumb ass!

+rednecklowlife me too! fav band and best band of all time

Yes THE END tour is everybodys last chance!

Yep, I thought that the jackhammer vibrato is something that Tony does that makes him instantly recognizable.

hell yeah! Tony Iommi, Danny Kirwan & Angus Young... the 3 vibrato kings. manic!

TheManwithafan seeing him at Ozzfest 2016 from the pit was a beautiful thing. I swear, I gave him a 👍🏽 and yelled his name. He smiled and nodded his head. I swear he acknowledged me.😃😂😃

Coldacre Paul kossoff is where they all got it from check him out from things band free in case u dont already kno him SONG=MR BIG LIVE AT BEAT CLUB

from the riffmeister that is big T.

Christopher Hitchens I totally agree

Fear57 ] LOL

Maybe, cocaine?

Hahaha! Didn't know you could get a "coke contact high" by listening to Sabbath!

Dio said OZZY couldn;t sing.....jealous much!!

You call this singing?

@@unclegrease1 Dio was right, Ozzy literally cant hold a candle to Dio

Dio was 100x a better singer than Ozzy, however, Ozzy was 100x more memorable than Dio.
