Nice stuff.

[raptoresque]

@GPazosL its the original heavy metal, along with acdc

[GPazosL]

@raptoresque I could be rude and say "no shit sherlock", but I won't.

[raptoresque]

@GPazosL thanks... i appreciate you not saying that... haha. i just assumed you were being one of those weirdos that feels the need to invent a genre for every little different sound

[reiherallendimarx]

best song, black sabbath

[Dmagnetic17]

I gotta get some of those pants that Tony's wearing...

[djtintle]

@Dmagnetic17 I want Bill Ward's shirt.

[Guample]

2:31 !!!!!!!!!!! My fav part

[Mr7Kostas]

3:58 time for headbanging!!!

[drum5479]

probably been stated prior to this comment, but the lyrics are quite a bit different from the studio version! i don't mind it one bit though. great song nonetheless

[KenAybis]

The drums at 5:56 are dope, in any meaning!

[tonyfrombalt]

Ward and Butler were every bit as good as Bonham/Jones or Baker/Bruce. Quite possibly my favorite if I had to choose.

[ilovepoobs]

@tonyfrombalt sabbath had the rock and the groove to them!

[mr0gray]

@tonyfrombalt Completely right.

[billgeezeriommi]

geezer is such a badass it blows my mind how much of a badass that guy is

[MrPtrlix]

manowar's better

[TheFullShrimp]

@MrPtrlix ..no

[NeonKnight33]

@MrPtrlix no just no!!!

[144church]

@MrPtrlix I hope you're kidding

[HABILUSJIM]

@MrPtrlix there is no man o war without these beasts.......

[T3hJones]

I'm no musician but I love this song. The drums are awesome like everything else!

[eduardo22491]

de los mejores conciertos del sabbath q buena rola!!!!!!!!!!! una atmosfera terrorifica!

[epiphoney2]

Bill kills it on those jam parts of the song!

[Wut88]

LONG LIVE OPIATES

[hashcayke]

this tune is boss, my fave sabbath track, ozzy looks frazzled on this vid, he cant nod his head to the tune whatsoever but somehow manages to sing in time, epic

[FunkyMonks1993]

the drumming sounds loads like john bonhams

[arielrebelfan1]

rat saled at the end?

[n1GibsonGuitarist]

@arielrebelfan1 yeah

[yxcvfdsA1]

they are the best

[giagiaprezoni]

fuck manowar

[fdarkbladeus]

What 'cha gonna do? Times caught up with you. Now you know the scene. Your skin starts turning green...

[GNRlast]

Favorite song from Paranoid!!!

[hailemmy]

they r really the beatles of metal

[santanaincubus]

@hailemmy Yes kind of, but instrumetally a million times better. lol.

[NoatallicA]

"actually youre wrong" "actually" "actually" SHUT THE FUCK UP LISTEN TO THE DAMN MUSIC

[ACDCNut55]

@symptom1555 actually, this was not from a week before paranoid was released. paranoid was released September 1970, and this was recorded at the Olympia Theatre, December 19, 1970. Also, on past lives, tracks on CD2: 1, and 5 through 9 were from this same venue on the same date

[footballinx36x]

sheer brilliance...............Black Sabbath!

[sexi1708]

this is fucking good metal

[macdaddyluigi15]

Very time i play this song, i turn my amp all the way up and just play the living shit out of this song! Dam Geezer and his amazing bass lines!!!

[newyorkeres]

@2WK09 of course! I'm just pointing out that specific blast beat of Bill, awesome drummer!!

[1984marmo]

nice groove on drums. bill ward, my hero

[JesusBizarre]

Groove...only the groove at the beginning of the song makes me wet.

[leahcimrac]

I think this was the first song I head banged to as a toddler. Thats right a TODDLER. I kew all the words to Iron Man and War Pigs at age 5.

[2WK09]

ozzy sure as hell didnt curse so much back than as he does now.....probably because he was wayyy to high to even wanna say anything....considering the fact that he most surely doesnt do all the stuff he did back then nowadays

[FrederikNewboe]

3:56 i love that part!! But of course the whole song fucking rocks like everything else by Black Sabbath :D

[newyorkeres]

Bill Ward's Blast Beat at 7:36!!! Awesome!!!

[2WK09]

@newyorkeres dude Bill is raping the shit out of those drums the whole fucken song.....not just during that part.......

[newyorkeres]

Bill Ward's Blast Beat at 7:36!!! Awesome!!!



[diehipsters]

Fu**in amazing as always!



[lolygagin34000]

i love the sickly tone ozzy sings this song in

[macdaddyluigi15]

i hate black sabbath

the whole band is full of badass members

tony is god at guitar

bill beats the crap out of his drums with insane fills

geezer,... dam dont let me get start with geezer

im a bassist and lets just say hes one of my heros

ozzy,... that fuckin voice just fits so dam well

its a dam love/hate band

[2WK09]

@macdaddyluigi15 ?????????????

[electric6Funeral]

nice alternate lyrics!! \m/ SABBATH \m/

[flathead59]

Such a freakin badass band,can't ever hear enough...

[jackzabbaththeband]

i wrote the lyrics to THIS hand of ddom down anyone want it?

becuase their different,so i had too

[AndySabola11]

My favorite Black Sabbath song!

[hallbergjonatan]

Ozzy is amazing even though it looks like he's very paranoid of all the drugs

[SuperIntuitive1]

Tony Iommi never wanted to do a live album with Ozzy cause he couldn't remember the lyrics when he was fucked up..!!

[alec12]

Ozzy didn't forget lyrics, changed them often but didn't forget them...

[JameoTheLameo1]

brings me back to sittin in my garage, tokin on a Summer's Morning with a friend of mine. great times

[Beastaphile]

My favorite Sabbath song. Awesome vid! Thanks for uploading to You Tube for us to enjoy!

[69ofdoom]

HOW THE HELL IS MANOWAR'S VERSION BEFORE BLACK SABBATH'S VERSION?

[MrShane17815]

i started singin then i was like wtf hahahah

[junya6695]

the solo is not complex at all but for some reason its so badass

[MetalAndFuckingPunk]

sabbath!!!

yeah!!!

[69ofdoom]

I wish this song never ended.

[projektor666]

@69ofdoom i hear that this song is a classic

[walkies777]

Love this riff 3:58 so simple, so metal!

[intrepidlavakitten]

I just won two tickets to see Ozzy Osbourne front row at Rogers Arena and I'm so happy about it. It will be a far out trip and a great opportunity to see him in his wonderful black sabbath clothes and to hear his beautiful voice and wow!!!

[chiefmungomartin]

This is my favourite Sabbath tune. I love the Drum rhythm in this track it's bordering on Jazz at times. Sabbath may be Metal but this is quite progressive.

[drledsabbath]

Why did they perform this song only once? I hope when they reunite next year, like they've been saying, they play this song!

[farisheavymetal96]

Hand of doom and rat salad !!\m/!!Bill is best!

[TheChave73]

6:15 :D

[NativeMetalVT]

Hard to believe that was 1970. Hell, Hendrix was still alive when this was filmed... Lots of bands today can't even rock this hard.

[algaeater]

This is my Fantasy Hockey Handle: Hand Of Doom!! Bring it!

[nib68]

Great upload. This is what I grew up on, and folks wonder why I'm sometimes a morbid SOB lol.

Y'know? The thing about Sabbath is that they hit the pinnacle from the outset. They did not start out slow, evolve, then hit a shining point and do a fade out.

Nope, they came out of the gate burning like a supernova and just kept doing it until it burned em up. Good thing they've finally recovered this late in life and still show they have it now and then.

[69ofdoom]

The day that Ozzy dies will be the worst day in metal history.... let's hope thats not going to be for a while.

[FredazoLtd]

@69ofdoom the prince of darkness NEVER dies

[fluffydolly]

hand of doom .....sabbath forever!!!!

[flathead59]

This is such a badass song ,how can you not relate,very suprised Ozzy has lived as long as he has,with all his darkness inside of him,great freakin music ,everything he's ever done is great.... :{

[xPinkZeppelinx]

does anyone know why ozzy tapes two mic's together?

[69ofdoom]

@xPinkZeppelinx They go to two different inputs. One for either effects or recording and one for the P.A. system.

[xPinkZeppelinx]

@69ofdoom ahhh. i see. thanks

[0987654321dta]

@xPinkZeppelinx To get left and right speaker output?

[TheySoldmySoul]

I still cant get over how awesome these guys sound live. I've listened to every Sabbath album at least a thousand times, and they sound even better live. Thats just fucking amazing.

[69ofdoom]

Now that I've heard the awesomeness that is this song, I've decided that I'm only doing what Black Sabbath did in these days. In other words, I'm sticking to psychedelics.

[flathead59]

Love it ,best old quality 

[JPedroPSilva]

Rat Salat!!

[aligatorsandwitch72]

Bill ward is a god...

[aligatorsandwitch72]

4:24 ITS MIKAEL AKERFELDT!!

So that's where he got the idea for Opeth...

[oneznzeroz]

Little did Ozzy know that many years later he would be filmed on tv chasing after a house cat with a squeak toy telling everyone to shut the fuck up

[RFistioKing]

@edslides, SAY NO MORE

Im MetallicA fan myself, but allways going back to sabbath when i feel nostalgic, even im not -70 guy, but still Black Sabbath is the one who start the metal

[yousaiditzero]

this couldn't have been a week before the release of paranoid....Ozzy altered the lyrics for the album well before a week of its release................

[symptom1555]

@yousaiditzero Actually, it WAS from a week before paranoid. Do a little research on Sabbath. Ozzy frequently changed lyrics, quite often. If you have no access to bootlegs, Then get the official live release "Past Lives." He alters the words to many songs, some making the lyrics 100% different. Hand of doom is on there, from a 1975 performance, 5 years AFTER paranoid with all diff. lyrics. I know what I am talking about. There is not much about Sabbath that I don't know.

[DoomMetalSludge]

@symptom1555 I don't think Hand of Doom was playing in 1975...

[symptom1555]

@DoomMetalSludge Don't take my word for it, get a retail copy of past lives....look at the notes and dates under hand of doom. That particular performance on that disc is from 75...

[DoomMetalSludge]

@symptom1555 I actually own that, and your wrong. Tracks 1-9 were recorded at Hardrock in Manchester, England on March 11th, 1973, and at the Rainbow Theatre in London, England on March 16th, 1973. On CD two, tracks 2-4 were recorded at Asbury Park Convention Hall in Asbury Park, New Jersey on August 6th, 1975. Tracks 5-9 were recorded at the Olympia Theatre in Paris, France on December 20th, 1970 as well as track on on the second disc. Hand of Doom is from this 1970 show.

[DoomMetalSludge]

@DoomMetalSludge Its the exact same audio as the 1970 footage of Hand Of Doom all over youtube...

[SabbraCadabra789]

@symptom1555 That Hand Of Doom version is from this....The songs on Past Lives; Symptom of the Universe, Hole In The Sky and Megalomania are from the Asbury Park 1975 which is the Sabotage tour,

Iron Man, Paranoid, Hand of Doom (is there any more?) are from this concert, it's just a compliation of the songs, i which they just released the Asbury Park show 75' although you can find it everywhere on the internet and YouTube, they should've released officially.....

[BigKahuna93]

@symptom1555 Iam curios now... isn't this the same show as heard on past lives? Or is there something i didn't got out of your post?

[SgtBustahnutt]

@symptom1555 its probs not ozzy, wouldn't be suprised if it were more so geezer, or maybe collectively ozzy and geezer, more so on geezer's side

[symptom1555]

@SgtBustahnutt I never thought of t that way. I know Geezer wrote most of the lyrics, but I always thought(especially since Ozzy did this in his solo career as well) That he was just so high he improvised the lyrics when he couldn't remember. I know he uses teleprompter nowadays.

[black1sabbath1]

@symptom1555

That's right. There are many demos where he's singing material that had nothing to do with the song, he was just singing to the riff.

[Nannada1212]

@symptom1555 Amen brotha, Ozzy's flying like a kite and pretty much flowing half the time.

[cgoofies]

@symptom1555 I agree, Ozzy for the most part I believe has lyrics, within the song he keeps, but sometimes I think he will make an adlib, depending on where he is playing, if it has to be similar to the album or a jam. That is one of the things I think makes Sabbath unique!

[GibsonLesPaul640666]

@symptom1555 its true, or in this case he just forgot and had to improvise

[modusoperandi23]

@symptom1555 I thought the lyrics to war pigs on this live version were so much better than the album version and what's the deal with the ending to war pigs on the album version? I found it to be ridiculous. Whats your opinion?

[TheSterlingSound]

@symptom1555 Symptom, that version of Hand of Doom on Past Lives is the same as this one. The Past Lives mixed the '70 Paris performance with the '75 King Biscuit ones. But of course you knew that as you know everything about Sabbath...

[diaryofanaxeman56]

@symptom1555 your right, also on the album "the ozzman cometh" it has war pigs and black sabbath basement tapes and war pigs has 100% different lyrics. sometimes i like listening to that version just to change things up(also to here Iommi do some cool live solos)

[jordcarg]

@yousaiditzero well,if he altered the lyrics well before a week,and that was a week ago then that makes perfect to me that that was a week before paranoids release and plus who cares just enjoy the fuckin music!

[Mechz]

lol he messes up the song all over the place, not just with improvisions

[HIM666waytolove]

Ave Sabbath!

[blacksabbath848]

god ozzy is top notch here! great video i love sabbath!!!!

[AudioAndroid]

My god so boss

[MADDOGGPOUND69]

holy shit that blew me away

[scubajoe47]

john osbourne

[scubajoe47]

ozzy ozzy

[scubajoe47]

awesome song

[symptom1555]

check out Bill Ward...He beats that little ludwig 5 piece with tribal ferocity...with Geezer matching with perfect rhythm....This is why I think no other incarnation of Sabbath sounded quite as raw, and powerful....the right musicians in the right combination at the right time.....(of course we have to give props and respect to their 5th member...all hardcore Sabbath fans know what I am talking about)

[iHards]

@symptom1555 Drop out of life with bong in hand! These guy drew up the blueprints for far more than just a genre of music. it`s a way of life!

[symptom1555]

@iHards what the hell is that supposed to mean? I am well aware of the influence Sabbath has had, they were my first concert in 1978 on the never say die tour. If this wasn't an insult, then my apologies. I am not quite understanding the dro out of life with bong in hand comment.

[iHards]

@symptom1555 Haha, no man, not an insult at all. It`s a quote from Sleep`s "Dopesmoker" - Drop out of life with bong in hand, Follow the smoke towards the riff-filled land! I assumed, that the 5th member, you mentioned, was weed. Sorry, if that`s not the case. What i meant to say with my comment was, that Sabbath didn`t just help define a genre in music, they difend a new way of life - one, that countless psychedelic/doom/rock/metal bands have since adopted. Hail the sweet leaf, Hail Sabbath!

[symptom1555]

@iHards ah, ok...sorry i have my shre of idiots going off on me out of the clear blue, and it has left me baffled. No, the 5th member is the invisible mystical member (their words) also referred to as the spiritual member who was responsible for the music. Confused? lol...the way the whole band describes it is that the first three albums wrote themselves, they would pick up there intruments and they would jam out the songs first time around. (continued on nxt message, running out of words)

[symptom1555]

@iHards @iHards Ok second part...any way...the first album? Black Sabbath? played in the studio live, all recorded in one take. The band after noticing this somewhere around "Master of reality" began to nervously joke about the invisible spiritual member who was writing their music....lol. Got to the point where if (during rehersals) the jams just wernt coming together, they said they would stop and wait until they all agreed the "5th member had arrived

[symptom1555]

@iHards so is this shameless self promotion by the band? Maybe...maybe not, but this girl would like to know....Thanks for watching!

[iHards]

@symptom1555 It`s shameless promotion OF the band. by me. :D

[symptom1555]

@iHards lol...you have to read the other parts of the response...dude....lol

[comopajarosperdidos]

es increíble que esto se haya hecho en 1970! Milnovescientosetenta!!! prácticamente al final de los sesentas ya se habían creado casi todos los géneros que definirían al rock de las siguientes décadas.

[symptom1555]

@comopajarosperdidos Sí, estoy de acuerdo, son verdaderos pioneros de música ...

[grayguy3]

Why am i having such a hard time finding this on dvd? I found one on ebay but its 20 bucks!! anyone know anything??

[GabySabe]

Rat Salad at the end is awesome

[TourettesSomething]

After downloading this on iTunes, I always wanted to see the video.

[termit88]

li love this song, its so dark,raw and barbaric

[jasonsz37]

Now that's Heavy Metal at it's best!! Period!

[JohnGalt42088]

WOW that is a YOUNG Ozzy. One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands. (∩_∩)

[skybluemarshall]

One of the things that defined 70s hard rock, metal and prog rock was song structure. The changes were more like mini versions of the movements found in classical music. That's what made Sabbath so interesting. Extended changes, with different tempos or even different musical styles, made it sound like they were playing three different movements. Sometimes, one of their little changes was better than the main verse and it would sort of steal the whole song in 60 seconds

[mikexlong]

Ozzy's drunk lyrics are so funny "because you trip a lot" lol.

[edslides]

for a perfect example of the word "juxtaposition"

look up "the candy song", by "masters of reality"

sounds 100% nothing like black sabbath, but i dare you to miss the groove.

its like metal-dy, i mean melody.

its all dropped d =tuning, but the riff will fuck ya up.

not metal, in the strictest sense, but better than priest, say

[1longshot3]

This is before any of these guys were big... that's pretty goddamn hard to imagine now lol

[mikedeviant]

Ozzy is so loaded here. He gets the lyrics wrong. Still cool stuff. You can tell they didn't have those onstage tuners that bands have today. Check out Tony tuning up out loud. That never happens today with professional musicians, but 1970 technology was much more limited. The sound is cool, but I prefer the studio version especially with the more powerful lyrics.

[rachel112263]

Classic Doom Metal people!!!!! It doesn't get any better than this.

[CronusPrime]

You're having a good time baby, but that won't last

Your mind's all full of things, you're living too fast

Go out enjoy yourself, don't bottle it in

You need someone to help you stick the needle in, yeah

[rsgod27]

6:10 he misses the verse lmao

[Angelious0]

it sounds like ozzy singing about somebody he cares about

[JASONX410]

Got this song is epic. It is really Complex but it flows perfectly, This is what most musicians wish they could do but they can't so we just get more pop songs. Long live Sabbath.

[Angelious0]

its so cool that they did a anti-drug song when they all did drugs anyway :)

[beserker1912]

@Angelious0 lol well it was anti heroin....i think when they came to america, it ruined them.

[69ofdoom]

It's a song about HEROIN... and at this stage, all of the members of Sabbath only drank, smoked dope, and did acid... and in the late 70's-- cocaine.

[Angelious0]

@69ofdoom but then again who r they 2 make a anti drug song when they did drugs anyway heroin weed acid its still all drugs anyway

[69ofdoom]

True, they are all intoxicants, but most people in the world do something to intoxicate themselves every now and then. Heroin is dangerously addictive, and destructive, Marijuana is not destructive, and only as addictive as coffee. I can go for weeks without in between periods of smoking weed every day with no withdrawl symptoms at all. Booze and Acid are dangerous, and addictive, too, but they are not nearly as dangerous as Heroin, Heroin is one of the worst drugs available.

[suicidewillie]

@69ofdoom They probably done a bit of smack too.

[69ofdoom]

@suicidewillie Ozzy did, but I know Tony Iommi didn't, he just got into coke real bad. I'm not sure about Geezer and Bill... And weed isn't an intoxicant, because the word "intoxicant" comes from the word "toxic", as if you have too much of an intoxicant, it can be toxic. Marijuana is impossible to overdose on, so a better word for it is: Consciousness alterer.

[Mustachhe]

ending with rat salad awesome.

[krevice]

@Gyphia deep purple.

[smirov]

The first heavy metal band ever!

[krevice]

@smirov along with deep purple. both of those bands pioneered heavy metal

[Mustachhe]

1st DOOM METAL BAND!!!!!!!!!

[ComputerBattleTV]

wow this song is so fucking well structured, love it, they are all REAL MUSICIANS, not like most bands nowadays that only have one really good musician in the band and everyone else follows them, SABBATH!!

[NicholasMagoon]

Black Sabbath - not only my favorite band, the best band ever!!!

[edslides]

i guess my years have me jaded, and since every hard rock band today is called metal, im just gonna have to say sabbath gave the world a rule book and told bands to go at it. sabbath has something damn near every band since has somehow ignored, and it is one of the most important aspects of metal.

its called "melody"

tony pulled off with 1 guitar what most bands miss with two.

duhn, dunh, dunh, dunh, dunh, DUNH! does not make it metal. learn your instrument.

[symptom1555]

LOL...love this comment...couldn't agree with you more....

[buckson123]

Nail on the head.

[Seasickelijah]

@edslides i disagree melody, theres a whole genre of metal called Melodic death metal. Sabbath was truely Metal not hard rock
