RARE Black Sabbath - "Black Sabbath" (1st LP)
NEMS Label - NEL6002 Collectors Limited Edition High Quality Colored Vinyl!Still falls the rain, the veils of darkness shroud the blackened trees, which, contorted by some unseen violence, shed their tired leaves, and bend their boughs towards a grey earth of severed bird wings. among the grasses, poppies bleed before a gesticulating death, and young rabbits, born dead in traps, stand motionless, as though guarding the silence that surrounds and threatens to engulf all those that would listen.
Mute birds, tired of repeating yesterdays terrors, huddle together in the recesses of dark corners, heads turned from the dead, black swan that floats upturned in a small pool in the hollow. there emerges from this pool a faint sensual mist, that traces its way upwards to caress the chipped feet of the headless martyr's statue, whose only achievement was to die to soon, and who couldn't wait to lose.
the cataract of darkness form fully, the long black night begins, yet still, by the lake a young girl waits, unseeing she believes herself unseen, she smiles, faintly at the distant tolling bell, and the still falling rain.

Some might claim that this 1970 debut is the definitive Black Sabbath record. While the gothic overtones of the opening track, "Black Sabbath" (thunderstorms and foreboding church bells introduce Ozzy Osbourne's howl and Tony Iommi's sludgy guitar), and the raucous defiling of Cream on "N.I.B." were thrilling then (and remain so now), there is too much wanking here to really qualify the collection as the must-have Black Sabbath record. (That prize would have to go to Paranoid.) But the blues-heavy riffs of "The Wizard," the soon-to-be-famous chord-progression stylings on "Wasp," and the grunge-boogie of "Wicked World" allow it to stand as a solid testament to the deep and lasting influence the band has had over the years. --Lorry Fleming
IF WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES IS NOT WHAT YOU WANT OR IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS WHAT SO EVER THEN THINK BEFORE YOU BID OR "BUY IT NOW". WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT WILL BE SHIPPED TO YOU - I DO NOT TAKE RETURNS ON VINYL, I HAVE BEEN BURNED TOO OFTEN BY PEOPLE SWAPPING OUT THEIR OLD CRAP WITH WHAT THEY RECEIVE WHEN THEY SHIP BACK A "RETURN". THANKS FOR LOOKING!
