Greatest Hits 1970-1978 packs the Ozzy Osbourne years of Black Sabbath onto a single remastered CD, sixteen tracks that map out the birth of heavy metal from start to finish.
Four young men from Birmingham took the blues, slowed it down, tuned it low and dragged it into the shadows, and music has never been the same. This 2006 collection follows them across all eight albums with Ozzy at the microphone, from the thunderous debut to the restless experiments of the late seventies, giving a clear sense of how quickly the band grew.
Paranoid and Iron Man are the obvious landmarks, one a frantic two-minute burst of anxiety and the other a lumbering, robotic stomp built on a riff everyone knows. War Pigs remains one of the great anti-war songs of any genre, Geezer Butler's lyrics as sharp as Tony Iommi's guitar is heavy. Children of the Grave gallops on Bill Ward's relentless drumming, and the later Never Say Die shows the band still swinging hard as the original line-up neared its end.
Remastered for clarity and punch, it makes an ideal introduction for newcomers and a handy collection for the car.
Few bands ever built a genre this decisively, and this disc lays out the blueprint.
