Black Sabbath- In the 70s by Collins (Sonic Bond Publishing) by Chris Sutton


Wow.. this was a super cool book to read. I actually learned quite a lot of cool information from this book, especially about the making of the first 5 albums. The author was either running out of space (even though this book is longer than many of the On Track books) or there was just not that much new or interesting info to add about the last two albums. I liked that he also included a lot of details and good comparisons with the normal albums all the recently released deluxe versions (Vol 4, Sabotage, and Technical Ecstasy). The author (like in many of the Every Album, Every Song books) has strong opinions about certain songs when describing them in detail. You might or might not agree of course. Just like this review!! 

The section about the live and rare releases at the end of the book was great. A lot of good details and comparisons.  I am a big early Sabbath collectors and discovered at least 2 live recordings that I should seek out now! Cool. Great book, even for people who have read Iron Man and Ozzy¨s biography.   Seems Geezer¨s will come out next year…   Good job!!!
