Black Sabbath are an English rock band, formed in Birmingham in 1968, by guitarist and main songwriter Tony Iommi, bassist and main lyricist Geezer Butler, singer Ozzy Osbourne, and drummer Bill Ward. The band have since experienced multiple line-up changes, with guitarist Iommi being the only constant presence in the band through the years. Originally formed in 1968 as a blues rock band, the group soon adopted the Black Sabbath moniker and began incorporating occult themes with horror-inspired lyrics and tuned-down guitars. Despite an association with these two themes, Black Sabbath also composed songs dealing with social instability, political corruption, the dangers of drug abuse and apocalyptic prophecies of the horrors of war.

My first “real” concert was Captain Beyond, Gentle Giant, and Black Sabbath at the Hollywood Bowl in [Fri 15 Sep] 1972. Gentle Giant got booed off stage after two songs, Geezer Butler’s bass notes were like a punch in the stomach, and tragically, I remember almost nothing about my favorite band Captain Beyond. –Greg
Yes they [ed: Gentle Giant] played, but I do not remember that happening. I remember a couple of other things from that night. Captain Beyond played their entire first album in order, (We later played with them in Baltimore, sadly with only Randy Caldwell. I wasn’t feeling well and missed their show). Someone shot a roman candle down at the stage and it may have hit Rod Evans, who I remember wearing white bell bottom pants. Halfway through their set Black Sabbath stopped. They said Tony Iommi suffered a nervous breakdown, or something like that. I later read they may have partied to much before the show, that was during their epic coke days. It was pretty amazing overall and very loud. I would go on to see them at California Jam in 1974, when they played in Ventura (with Dio) I was trying to talk the promoter to let us open up for the show. They already had a full bill including “Shakin Street” (who on that tour was instrumental in the formation of Manowar), because of that we did not play but the promoter let Tim, Flint & I hang out backstage with Tony, Geezer & Bill, not sure where RJD was. I made some posters to promote the show and Bill Ward signed one. Jarvis Leatherby who was the major reason the band reformed took me to Black Sabbath’s the End tour on his birthday! Some crazy memories. Regrettably I never got to meet Ozzy. – Rob, 25 Jul 2025
