I bought this when I was a senior in high school (1970-1971) and loved it. I wrote a paper for an english assignment on the premise that the song Black Sabbath was about professional football, played every week on sabbath day. I read the paper in class while playing the song and made line by line comparisons. Got an “A,” of course.

Although I think this album is slightly overrated, this is a legendary album. I personally don’t like Wicked World, but if the Itunes version had Evil Woman (ik the Euro version does) I’d give it 5 stars. Still amazing nonetheless.

evil woman

Some people never grow up.

For any one confused out there this is the American version that came out. Evil Woman is on the European version.

I listened to this whole thing front to back, and it was awesome. A horror movie was playing in my head as I listened to “Black Sabbath” and “The Wizard”. Deserves more recognition than Paranoid, since it is more roomier and louder.

There's rock. There's hard rock. There's metal. Somewhere, beyond all that, is Sabbath. This one started it all, and nobody else even comes close. Do yourself the favor of listening to this from start to finish - with some killer headphones.

Althogh I waould give the number one spot to their album Paranoid, this one was waht started their fifty year career, and breathed life into music. I feel like I am the only one at my age who still listens to this music. Overall, Black Sabbath is perfect to my ear, not too heavy or light, Ozzy's voice is spectacular. Sabbath for the win!

Game changer . Every metal bands influence right here people . 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻

This album is great no doubt. However, where’s evil woman. Come on!
