The first music I got into was the glam rock of Slade, Sweet and Gary Glitter when I was six or seven. From there I worked my way through the Beatles catalog. Then as I turned eleven or twelve I got hold of my first Black Sabbath album. By the time I was 14 they had split up but I had all the albums bar Never Say Die. They were my favourite band for those years and I loved them ever since. It was so sad to hear about Ozzy dying though not entirely unexpected. I discussed going to the final concert in Birmingham but it was very expensive and I am not fond of any of the support bands there. I don't like heavy metal on the whole much as I love the Sex Pistols but don't like much punk rock. I did get to see the reformed Sabbath once on the last but one tour but they were way past their best. Hopefully this link will work for anyone interested in hearing an early version of what would become War Pigs done for the John Peel show. Utterly brilliant. https://youtu.be/7qVRJmFvSS0?si=zIRG4skWoD-yVo6u
