Black Sabbath: Live Evil
Just dug this album out again, as it used to be my favourite Sabbath record.

What a fucking tone! Plus, Dio absolutely owns the Ozzy-era songs...

I spent countless hours playing guitar along with Live Evil back when I was about 15. I think I learned just about every little nuance that Tony plays on it, though I never did quite figure out that little arpeggio intro that Tony does on the song "Black Sabbath."

What's sad is that Ozzy's butchery of the Sabbath catalogue on Speak of the Devil (or Talk of the Devil for you non-Americans out there) got a lot more attention than Live Evil did.

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

Live Evil was the first Sabbath I ever bought. I still love it.

Live Evil is great, but you know whats better?

Live At the Hammersmith. Rhino released it this year and the production crushes it. its from 1981, as well, and the setlist is totally different. Such a great recording


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

It is great, but sadly Rhino decided to release it in the "Handmade" series, limited to 5,000 copies. I got my copy, but anyone looking for it now is SOL unless they want to pay big $$$ on eBay.

I must say, though, that I like the lusher mix on Live Evil a little better than the dryer mix on the Hammersmith album. Guess I'm just stuck in the '80s.

Dio brought melodic and compositional value to Sabbath.

Ozzy had no melodic sense, just sang the same melody to the riff for the most part. It took Randy Rhoads to introduce Ozzy to melodic value and actually help Oz to incorporate that into his music from that point forth, but before that, Oz was no Wiz on the melody.

Dio has always been very creative in moving the melody around with his voice, not just settling for doing each verse the same, but adding little inflections to add & relieve melodic tension, make for much more interesting listening.
