Description
Black Sabbath – self-titled LP
Recorded live, with virtually no overdubs (bar the occasional bell and thunderstorm sound effect, natch), in a single day on the 16th October 1969, and released on Friday 13th February 1970 by Vertigo Records. “Once we’d finished, we spent a couple of hours double-tracking some of the guitar and vocals, and that was that. Done. We were in the pub in time for last orders. It can’t have taken any longer than twelve hours in total. That’s how albums should be made, in my opinion.” – Ozzy
“just like Cream! But worse” – Lester Bangs
