Jimi Hendrix fucking sucks. I downloaded all his albums and they are all slow dull bags of shit. Fuck Jimi Hendrix. How on earth is that guy remotely good? All along the watch tower is his only mildly decent song, which he took from bob dylan and made worse. His guitar playing is so Liberace it becomes beige and his heroin induced slow talking crap makes me want to be sick.

Worst artist ever!

What do people like about him?[/quote]

I swear that Wright Flyer was a real piece of shit. It was made out of wood, who builds planes out of wood? Were those Wright brothers inbred or something?

Taste in music and technological linearity do not face the same objectivity, otherwise every artist ever would have to be defended.

Ian Gillan from Deep Purple was in the line up for a little while too but that album really did suck pretty badly. I think it was “Born Again”.

“Born Again” is fantastic. It’s the production that sucks.

I’ve really gained an appreciation of the Gillan and Martin work with Sabbath. It’s seriously underrated. Some of the tracks are up there with their best Ozzy/Dio stuff.

I’d rate Sabbath 8 or 9/10, only because they put out a few dud albums, which is bound to happen when you’ve been around for 40 years.

Top 3 of all time.

Top 5

  1. The Rolling Stones
  2. Led Zeppelin
  3. Queen
  4. The Beatles
  5. Metallica

I’m glad you’ve given it up…I’m sure i"m not the only one that got tired of listening to you 24/7…since you are THE VOICE of music it’s nice you’ve cut them some slack.

Wanker.

I think some other , old drunks have touched on this…but …really?

Get past the Classic Rock radio stuff and listen to them again…I HATED the Beatles for years, but 2 months ago I started listening to their stuff AND in context…it’s phenomenal…like discovering Bach or Beethoven after only hearing Air on G String (not what you think) or Moonlight Sonata over and over again…check out Beatles on BBC…

To leap from what was being done at that time to what they did musically was incredible.

Effing a right! It’s like saying John Holmes didn’t know how to destroy va-jay-jay.

You and your big words…go back to Texas Roget…

They were only good with Dio [/quote]

Ok…Iron Man? War Pigs? Paranoid? Those 3 songs would get an Ozzy Led Sabbath into the rock and roll hall of fame…Dio was like kissing you sister…everyone mentioning how awesome Dio was with Sabbath just goes to show how much more awesomer they were with Ozzy.

fuck off ya punters!

Personal enjoyment - 9/10

All-time rank (mine, being as objective as possible) - Top 10

Their contribution to metal alone puts them in the top 25. Their endurance through changing from Ozzy to Dio to Ozzy is incredible.[/quote]

Fookin’ a right !

BEST BAND EVER.

why do these other threads exist?

The Osbournes show and Sharon being a complete psychopath have absolutely no bearing on Sabbath’s resume and the work they produced. Similar to Metallica, the Napster thing is a huge eyesore but that doesnt change what they accomplished.

Regardless, Up the Irons!!

Most overrated band ever – Rolling Stones. The Nickelback of the 60s

The Rolling Stones have some good tunes, cant say nickelback has any.

People whose opinions are more learned and valuable than yours will ever be believe he was great. It’s funny how people try hard to appear different by being contrary but fail to recognize that the odds are the musicians they do like call Hendrix great. You claim to be in love with Sabbath now but guess what? Hendrix was a huge influence on Iommi.
