What Are Your Favourite 10 Original Lineup Sabbath Tracks?

First Post September 03, 2020 06:57 PM

OK, Paranoid is almost fifty, so I want to know what other Acadamy members' favourite ten tracks of the original Sabbath lineup are. I've limited it to ten because I want it to be a challenge to narrow the list down (I know I struggled). All the albums from Black Sabbath to Never Say Die are eligible.

I'll kick off:

1. Into the Void
2. Symptom of the Universe
3. Children of the Grave
4. Electric Funeral
5. Supernaut
6. Dirty Women
7. Black Sabbath
8. Hand of Doom
9. A National Acrobat
10. Megalomania

03. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

04. Snowblind

05. Symptom Of The Universe

06. Sweet Leaf

07. Iron Man

08. Hole In The Sky

09. Planet Caravan

10. N.I.B.

4. Under the Sun

9. You Won't Change Me

10. Fairies Wear Boots

Already out of 30 possible choices we have 24 different tracks.

As I suspected, Sabbath wrote so many classic songs there is a huge number of contenders and everyone's list will almost certainly be different.

While I'm no Sabbath expert... Tymell, based on the other lists in this thread, yours actually makes sense in the "top 10" order starting with the #1 song. Even an unordered list can come out as ordered!

Ha, you're right. I may have gone through the albums picking the 10 :p You can also see my album prefs pretty clearly there: I never really cared so much for Vol. 4 or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (and I've never bothered listening to Never Say Die or Technical Ecstasy).
