Sabbath - a weekly festival having its origin in the fact that God made the world in six days and was arrested on the seventh. ↗

To do the Ozzfest again would be great. I'd like to finish with a final Sabbath album. You always feel that it is still a challenge. ↗

Black Sabbath was written on bass: I just walked into the studio and went, bah, bah, bah, and everybody joined in and we just did it. ↗

Toward the later days of Sabbath, instead of going in and knocking out what songs we did in rehearsal, we would polish them to death. ↗

Pamphlets on Sabbath writing are in request here I have been applied to for them by several of the old Methodists knowing that I had them to sell before. ↗

I still think the best metal bands have a blues feel. The first Black Sabbath album is kind of a bludgeoning of blues. Deep Purple also started out as a blues band. ↗

Although it was in primitive times and differently called the Lord's day or Sunday, yet it was never denominated the Sabbath; a name constantly appropriate to Saturday, or the Seventh day both by sacred and ecclesiastical writers. ↗

I never try and sound like Sabbath. ↗

To me, Sabbath was always JUSt a really heavy blues band. That s all we were. We just took those blues roots and made them heavier. ↗
