BILL WARD is one of the most unique, creative and innovative drummers in all of rock music. Im glad to see him finally getting his due and being acknowledged for his contributions to the Sabbath sound and his influence on heavy music as a whole.
Bill Ward who get high whit OZZY and they like it he get (Bill) high cos they get lots of money and they did'nt know what to do with so much money have fun and they live well only Bill gets five hard attack that's life 😇😁🤪👊
The great thing is they twisted "Rock n Roll" into something else 12:15 , I love the way Ozzie says "as far as I'm aware!" which means it probably happened, ha ha!
Years ago I worked at two high end menswear stores in Birmingham, and Geezer came in and bought a leather suit which may have been for an award as said he was off to Nashville. He was such an unassuming and understated guy; quite a contrast to what he and the other band mambers got up to in their pomp.
At the time of Sabbath’s heyday, Geezer was one of the most unique bass players in the world! Many people didn’t realize that Geezer wrote the lyrics, and created most of the riffs!!
Finally a musical tribute to a band, where they actually play the band’s music! I hate those videos that don’t even get the rights to play the actual music they played!
Ronnie James Dio was a Monster of a singer! He was perfect for the 2nd version of Sabbath!! The original was my favorite with Ozzy, but the Dio years were great, too! Dio was a great stand-up guy! A real person with his own standards, (which were very high)!!
Saw the Sabb's in Nashville, Feb, '78. VH opened. Was a big Sabbath fan, so I was a happy camper to finally see them. VH were in their prime and a lot of people said they blew Sabbath away on that tour. Not on the night I saw them. Eddie and the boys did rock out, to say the least. RIP Edward...
Hearing of the feelings of insecurity and sadness that Bill experienced because of his friend Ozzy no longer being in the band is quite touching i thought.
@@maxbeale8186I believe him and at the same time as has been true between now and his original exit from the band . Tony does anything with a different line up and Ozzy starts pining for the old days .
I started playing guitar in 1969 I always loved the heavy dark side of music led zepp / black sabbath/deep purple I had the pleasure to meet Vinnie backstage dio concert what a amazing person and drummer
Hey I met John Paul Jones in the Belfast Limelight September 1999. He signed my Led Zeppelin at the BBC sessions and took my ticket to get his two band mates to sign. Such a humble man.

I saw them in the late 90s in the meadowlands Was the loudest concert I’ve ever been to We are 3rd row and my Ears were ringing for 2 days afterwards Was a great show
Black Sabbath. Was my first concert i ever went to. It was Black Sabbath and Blue oyster cult. The Best Concert i ever seen. Until i seen Led Zeppelin. They was in 1975.. After that i was into metal all the way. But Sabbath i really do Love. Can't get no better. Dio was also Great. But Ozzy Osborne was the best singer for Black Sabbath.. But when they Finley broke up i was heart Broken. But i got to see the Godfathers of Metal. Hell Yes..❤ 100% Bad Asses And I still Listen too them .. And so does my Son's.
Yes they were my first concert too. Ozzfest 97' they reunited for the first time in quite a while. That kicked ass for sure being 14. They introduced me to great music.
There's something magical about bands like Sabbath because I was born in 95 and Sabbath is my favorite band. I can't explain why, but how the fuck a 40 years old band can still have such impact on the culture? I don't know, man.
There are countless terrible Black Sabbath documentaries om TH-cam however this isnt one of them. Narrated by the music legend that is the late John Peel this includes interviews with direct band members only and contained some information that i had never heard before despite being a fan for over 40 years. Thank you so much for sharing this! p.s. The Merseybeat doc tagged on after was an utter bonus.
Having all the members of the band, temporary members to document from there view how all went down...bottom line drugs or not being in a band with other people is almost always certain to fail, throw booze and dope it just dies faster... What bands have stayed together from the jump with all first original members. Beatles technically wouldn't count due to having a drummer before Ringo and broke up so not long lasting band like Rolling Stones...areosmith? Out of all the bands it's like marriage most likely meant to end in a bitter divorce fighting over the rights to the band name etc..
When I saw "don't blame me" about Ozzy Osbourne in 1994, I was floored with excitement! I am just now seeing this "bloody Black Sabbath" video, and am equally as excited as I was 30 years ago! This is phenomenal!
NIGEL in Canada🇨🇦 Iommi and Butler Page and Jones Michael Bruce and Dennis Dunnaway a good guitarist and an inventive bass player doesn't get any better than that these duos shaped my life to this day
I was present at the first ozzfest. A full set for Sabbath, then a full set of ozzys solo band. It was fantastic. Ozzyy did a flawless job. He almost walked off stage cause of some douchebags throwing sod. He didn't though. Go fng crazy!!! Ty guys. That show was awesome.
One of the maddest things I find about Tony Iommi is how chill he seems in his later years (from watching countless interviews post 90's) but in Geezer Butler's book he talks about how intimidating and aggro he could be and you can kind of tell...in this feature you can still see he's got a bit of a mad stare lingering from the cocaine addled days.
Once you have been really high a few times it's hard to want to go back. You can do it. You will always have that urge though. The incomplete feeling goes away with time. Anything can trigger the urge. A song on the radio can take you back.
I looked up Skinheads in England at that time and it started totally different from what it became. It was a movement of working class/poor kids of white and immigrant kids who wanted to celebrate the working man. It didn’t become associated with racism and white supremacy until it got to the US (of course).
Actually two of Sabbaths most successful albums were not recorded in the states but in Willesden north west london NW10 at Morgan studios! Sabbath bloody sabbath 1973 and Sabotage 1975!
Shame all the early Rock Family Trees have never been put on streaming - some the best most personal music documentaries ever made. This one is at the top with the ones about Deep Purple, Yes. Fleetwood Mac and the British blues scene.
From an era when there was no shortage of really great, creative British bands. Quite amazing when you think of how small these islands are in comparison to countries such as the USA.
These guys were pretty bold blazing a trail no one had really gone down before. All those bands were going into uniqueness and no one could do what they do. Originality was the standard you had to reach before you reach universal success.
Agreed, I noticed that as well. It covers Born Again, Holy Diver in 83, the original line up doing Live Aid in 85...then jumps forward the best part of a decade to Dio returning for Dehumanizer in 92! Then the original line ups 90s reunion. I count Seventh Star, Eternal Idol, Headless Cross, Tyr, Cross Purposes, Forbidden- six Black Sabbath albums they pretend don’t exist.
Imagine Sabbath throwing that number into the set in 1969 it would have melted minds. Today it sounds fairly innocuous but back then it was heavy as and would have FREAKED people out.
Legends! This band came in several line-ups & versions. Good documentary & real interviews. However incomplete! No mention of the very important Tony Martin era. Why ? The World Is Full Of Kings & Queens That Blind Your Eyes & Steal Your Dreams It’s: Heaven & Hell 🤘
When Ozzy was told, he was told by Bill. Evidently they had open communication, were close. Had feeling for one another. How do I know? The re-union tour. When the song started up, Ozzy went over to Bill's outstretched arm across the drums and Ozzy grabbed his hand and kissed it. Then at the end when they thanked the crowd they had hands in the air, bowing etc. Ozzy looked to his right to check on Bill. Ronnie also talked about Bill when he worked with him. He always had good things to say about Bill, always. I had heard somewhere that Bill was one of the smart ones. Isn't usually the smart gifted ones who have alcohol problems. Plus after many generations, thousand plus years a genetic disposition rises. Ingrained and accepted, as it says to the sixth generation it floats.
One of (if not) the best Sabbath documentary, even though they skipped the Tony Martin years, its understandable, since the lineups weren't that notables as the others (I love 80s and 90s Sabbath).
funny they left out any mention of Dave Walker who was in the group 77/78, David Donato in 84. Jeff Fenholt in 85, Glenn Hughes and Ray Gillen in 86, and those guys were more than just a blip in the bands history, Walker wrote the bulk of the songs on NSD, Fenholt was in the group for 6 months writing and recording the basis for Seventh star, which Hughes was featured on, Gillen was in the group for a year finished the tour in 86, then was around for the writing/recording process which led up the the Eternal Idol album.
They also showed Ozzy going solo and completely ignored the fact that it started with Randy Rhodes and they jumped right over Rhodes like he was a nobody and showed clips of ozzy with Jake E Lee.
I left sabbath when ozzy left, for me sabotage was the cherry 🍒 on the cake of Sabbath bloody Sabbath. I just gone back to sabbath at the age of 66 to see if I still like them with out ozzy, it's taking all this time. It's like I saved it after all these years.. Question.. What were the guys doing in the band than? What, did they just play on stage then?
Black Sabbath put out many great albums over the years with different lineups, but the original band from 1970's "Black Sabbath" to 1975's "Sabotage" was pure magic. The album cover for their debut was creepy AF.
why, when they first talk about Ozzy's solo career do they jump straight to Bark at the Moon and dont even mention Billard of Oz and Diary of a Madman - the stuff he did with Randy Rhoads???
Good for Bill Ward doing what he needed to do to get well, Lord knows there's more than enough substance abuse casualties in Rock n Roll, Bonham, Moon, Bon Scott.
After Forever was a very godly song. Seeing the Pope at the end of rope, was a great line. There's no Popes in the Bible. Stryper recorded the song on their "Fallen record" War pigs had a great message. One of the greatest anti-war songs of all time.
Black Sabbath great band these players are real fantstic singer OZZY, Ceezer, Iomi, and Bill they open the Gates to better place oyjeah god bless ya all 👀😎🤪👊
Great band 👍🏻🎸 another band like black Sabbath was...black widow. They really were brilliant and underrated. Their music is on TH-cam. Check them out. "Sacrifice" by Black widow.
thanks, love Sabbath and that heavy metal sound since 1980.,in later years I used to blast Distubing the Priest. lol Gonna try some Black Widow. Trouble isn'nt so bad either wth their song At the end of my daze. cheers!
BILL WARD is one of the most unique, creative and innovative drummers in all of rock music. Im glad to see him finally getting his due and being acknowledged for his contributions to the Sabbath sound and his influence on heavy music as a whole.

Bill Ward who get high whit OZZY and they like it he get (Bill) high cos they get lots of money and they did'nt know what to do with so much money have fun and they live well only Bill gets five hard attack that's life 😇😁🤪👊
Absolutely! Except for the Born Again album, can't even tell if it's him on there...
A truly great band. Geezer laughs like a mischievous Irish guy. He’s the glue. Bill is the heart. Tony the brains. And Izzy is just a glorious retart.
Sleaziest backbeat in history. Of all the elements that made Sabbath heavy, heavier than any other rock band, the heaviest element was Ward.
If you love rock n roll you've got to love Black Sabbath, they are amazing. All those 60´s and 70´s bands were amazing, what a time to be alive!!
I’ve got many of Tony Iommi’s fingertips lying around the house
I was there. Went to Sabbath concerts in the 70s, The Reunion Tour, Saw Ozzy all that stuff
Ya knows what you talk(writes) ya are so right 😀😁😇👊
The great thing is they twisted "Rock n Roll" into something else 12:15 , I love the way Ozzie says "as far as I'm aware!" which means it probably happened, ha ha!
Geezer Butler is so interesting, he’s this perfect gentleman telling stories of utter debauchery with a telling twinkle in his eye

Watching this for the umpteenth time in 2024 and continue to be amazed they're all still alive! A truly great band of survivors. RIP Ronnie & Cozy 🙏
Black Sabbath was my #1 band at 13 -15 years old. I still love Sabbath. Learned all of Geezers bass lines. I still love playing Sabbath.

Possibly thee best metal band
Who’s the big four in heavy metal I’m not talking trash basically four best 80s metal bands
The word metal didn't exist in the hay days of Black Sabbath.
Ya I know metal didn’t exist I’m saying the 1980s best 4 hair bands for lack of a better name
Dio records are PAINFUL. Like pop-metal.
these are my Brummie homeboys, I'm so proud of them.
Thank you Geezer for the dark scary lyrics. Who made yall the best heavy metal band from England.
Ah the voice of the great John Peel, may he RIP.
Thankyou for this I have been searching for years for this particular documentary.

Once you have been really high a few times it's hard to want to go back. You can do it. You will always have that urge though. The incomplete feeling goes away with time. Anything can trigger the urge. A song on the radio can take you back.

There is no town on earth quite like Birmingham for eccentricity, with the possible exception of perhaps Liverpool or Glasgow.
Lol, something at the door wants to see ya!
At the point where they talked about "Children of the Sea" I started waiting for someone to say that their amp goes to 11.
