Okay…whats your favourite Sabbath record (Ozzy Era)? it’s certainly a tough call but Vol 4. Has to be up there right? Released in 1972 “Vol 4” was the fourth offering from the band and although the record is sometimes more known for the iconic artwork and the band blowing the recording budget on cocaine, Vol 4 offers so much more! The self produced Vol 4 is a departure from the first 3 records with the band wanting to explore new sonic territory but certainly doesnt lack Iommi’s trademark heavy riffage with the likes of the epic Snowblind, Under The Sun and Supernaut. Despite weirdly being panned by critics at the time it’s considered a classic today and a personal favourite of mine. Check out the 1972 Original first pressing on Vertigo we have just listed to our site.
