Black Sabbath

'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath'

WWA, UK, 1973

WWA 005

THIS IS the fifth and perhaps mots adventurous Black Sabbath studio album. The material is far more diverse than their earlier bludgeon, easing off the heaviousity gass pedal a tad in favour of more texture and more variety. But that's not to say that they wimped out. Tracks such as 'Killing Yourself To Live', 'A National Acrobat', 'Sabra Cadabra' and the title track all pay a healthy disrespect for restraint and subtlety. A truly great album and perhaps the only Sabbath album still constantly revealing itself after all these years.

This pressing was quickly superseded by the second issue on the NEMS label. These are relatively tough to find and even harder in such nice condition.

This auction is part of a fantastic collection of seventies rock which I was lucky enough to acquire. Most of these records were stored with the utmost care and sparsely played. Some were possibly never played or may have been for just a handful of times.

Pressing: WWA, UK, 1973

Vinyl: Lovely clean and shiny condition. Nice glossy surface with no scuffs, I can see two faint spindle marks on labels but no other signs of use. Grades as near shop fresh MINT-!

Cover: Again no pronounced signs of use. Issued in a beautifully illustrated gatefold cover - just a hint of storage wear to rear panel. Sharp corners, no dings, no bends, no ring wear, no split seams and no creases. Displays three or four indentations to rear panel as if someone had rested on the sleeve to write something in biro on a scrap of paper. Nothing to worry about. Grades as top Ex+

Inserts: None
