Year of establishment 1969, UK.
The UK is home to many outstanding musicians. In 1969, in one of the small industrial towns in England, the Black Sabbath group was created (Black Sabbath). Then the inhabitants of Birmingham did not think about how big a star is born in their city.


It is now that we put the rock band on a par with such rock giants as Led Zeppelin and deep purple. The band members were able to create cult hits and become the backbone of hard rock in the seventies. Their presence can be traced in the sound of modern rock music, and it occurs in both thrash metal and grunge. Black Sabbath frontman John Michael Osbourne grew up in poor family, he spent little time studying, and the guy had to work from the age of 15.


Money was constantly lacking and sometimes it came to theft. John even had a chance to serve 6 months in prison once. Ever since school, friends called Michael "Ozzy", he received such a nickname due to his love for the book "The Wizard of Oz". With another member of the team, Terry Butler, nicknamed "Geezer" ("Old Woman"), John became friends when he worked in the Rare Breed group.


Terry later wrote songs for Sabbath and was the band's bassist. With the future guitarist of the band, Michael studied at the same school and, frankly, the relationship between them was not the most friendly. But in order to play in the same group, the guys had to make friends. By the way, before the soloists settled on name Black Sabbath, the band changed its name twice: Polka Tulk Blues Band, The Earth.


Only in 1969 did one mystical thriller suggest the final version of the band's name. The rock team comprehensively inclined the theme of mysticism. Most of the fans, unable to catch the thread of irony, took the "black creativity" of the team at face value. In 1970, the guys put together a full-length album. You will not believe it, but only 600 pounds were spent on its recording, and the recording time was 8 hours.

You have to be completely desperate, and besides, a mega-master, in order to collect successful rather gloomy sounds on one album in such a time, among which you can sometimes see the blues beginning, hear Ozzy's high-pitched brutal vocals, such a collection is not often seen. And all this against the background of texts, where unimaginable images come to life. evil spirits. In the same year, the band's second album Paranoid was released, which was a good continuation of a successful start.


Here, not only was there a place for images of hopelessness and apocalypse, evil and war, but also for several truly gorgeous landscape sketches (“Sleeping Village”, “Planet Caravan”). Albums have become popular far beyond the borders of Britain. Of course, there were smart people who accused the group of promoting dark rituals and Satanism. But this did not stop the group from gaining more and more popularity.

Black Sabbath is an English cult rock band that influenced the development of rock music in general, and heavy metal in particular. It was formed in 1968 in Birmingham by Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward. All of them before the start of joint activities played in different musical groups. The ideological leader of the future Black Sabbath is Iommi and his partner in the previous musical project Ward, decided to create new group that would play heavy blues. And one day, going to a local record store, they found an advertisement for Osbourne and Butler, who were looking for an opportunity to perform concerts, and invited them as participants. Initially, the band was called differently - before, in fact, Black Sabbath, the group had the name "Earth". The guys became regulars, in the sense of performances, in the club of jazzman Jim Simpson. Since the musicians performed with blues containing elements of jazz, Jim liked them, and he decided to become their manager. Those were afraid of their refusal to deprive themselves of constant performances in his institution, so they agreed.

And as the laying of the first brick in their musical activity under his patronage, Simpson arranged them into a project, the essence of which was based on the tour of four groups - the concert ended every evening with the performance of all of them at once on the same stage. At the end of 1968, Iommi briefly left for another band, but having become disillusioned with the development trend of their music, he returned to Earth at the beginning of 1969 - he did not like being there only as a performer when he was the clear leader here. Young people begin to write their own musical material - this is how Wicked World, Black Sabbath and The Wizzard appear. Moreover, the last of them was written under the impression that in one of the clubs, Osborn and Butler, who were in a state of drug intoxication, dreamed that someone jumping idiotically outside was a fabulous elf.

And the song "Black Sabbath", which later served as the idea for the name of the group, has a special history of creation in general. Interestingly, the memories different participants collectives about this are different. So, Osborn says that he was inspired to write the song by Butler's story about a vision that arose after reading the themes of Dennis Wheatley's occult novel about black magic of the 16th century. Geezer said that he woke up in the middle of the night and saw a figure, all wrapped in black, standing at the foot of his bed - he was numb with horror. After a few moments, the otherworldly silhouette disappeared. And the first lines of the song "Black Sabbath" are just about this, so to speak, Butler's insight. Iommi, on the other hand, says that he was just playing, when he suddenly hit the right chord and built something incredible riff after riff - a composition was born that gave the group a new development. The motives for choosing an occult and gloomy theme for their music by the band are also difficult to find out thoroughly. Since, in one interview, Iommi said that he was inspired by the big line he saw through the window at the cinema for the film Black Saturday. He thought that if people like watching movies that scare and fascinate them, then they might also like music in a similar context. In his autobiography, he practically refuses these words, saying that at that time he did not even know about this movie.

And the group at that time needed to change its name, since there was already one Earth in England - Butler suggested Black Sabbath, and this idea seemed very successful to the participants. Simpson organizes the band's debut performance in Europe. Young people by any means tried to attract attention there - at one concert Iommi tried to play the flute, which he had never touched before, at another - Osbourne painted his face red. At the end of 1969, the group performed on national radio, presenting their songs, among which was "Black Sabbath". In the meantime, the musicians continued to give concerts at the Simpson's club, where they were soon noticed by the then fashionable DJ Tony Hall. He immediately made a contract with the group from his company, which he then resold to another label. The musicians began recording their first record. While working on the legendary "Black Sabbath", thunder peals and the ringing of bells were added. On the front side of the album was placed a photo of an old mill in the English village of Mapledurham and an inverted crucifix, because of which the musicians were mistakenly considered by many to be Satanists. The band had many touring contracts and little pay, so they changed producer to Patrick Meehan, who also, much to the delight of the members, shielded them from press harassment before the album's release, giving the debut an air of mystery.

And so, on Friday February 1970, the first disc was presented to the general public, echoing the name of the group. It peaked at number 8 in the UK and number 23 on the US Billboard 200. Sales for this album reached 1 million copies. It is striking that the critics, in general, have always spoken of the group rather unflatteringly, making a great contrast to the ardent love of many of the band's fans around the world. Black Sabbath is on a meteoric rise. And the managers feeling great commercial success, they built the tour schedule and the recording of the group's new albums in such a way that the participants worked almost to the point of wear and tear, and sometimes reached complete physical and moral exhaustion. It is striking that even after many years of success, the musicians remained themselves, not succumbing to the "star" disease, saying that coming out of the poorest strata, after they became famous, having bought a car and a house, they were not interested in money, and their goal has always been and remained one and same - do good music. Osborne repeatedly left and returned to the team. In 2015, Black Sabbath announced the start of a farewell tour under the logical name "THE END".
