Live Stuff: Black Sabbath – Come To The Sabbath – Paris 1970

Black Sabbath – Come To The Sabbath – Paris 1970 [zip file]

So I don’t know much about this show but all I can say is that it rips my fucking face off every time I listen to it.  Black Sabbath was touring in 1970 and starting to make a name for themselves as they delivered high volume and high energy shows full of dark imagery and riffs that would scare the habit off of any nun within a 10 mile radius.

This show is really killer in the sense that you get to hear Sabbath really “jamming” as they cut through “Behind The Wall of Sleep.”  Add to that “Paranoid” and “War Pigs” with alternate lyrics from what would appear on the album and you’ve got an absolutely amazing listen.  Its so amazing to hear Black Sabbath and Ozzy sounding so young and fresh.  They possessed this hunger and desire to turn anyone and everyone on that they could to what they were trying to get across.  As time would prove, that message was received and digested loud and clear and still is to this day.  This is a must have for any Sabbath fan new and old.  I wish I could re-hear this for the first time as it is truly an amazing listen!  Enjoy!
