Current Events > Most people dont know how good of a jazzy band Black Sabbath were

(+) Yeah! (+)

Skip to like 5:15, they break out into this amazing fucking jazz instrumental thing. Toni Iommi is the fucking man.

True.

People also don't realise just how good Led Zep were at both jazz and blues. They just think hard rock and Stairway.

Sabbath are one of my all time faves though, the first riff I learnt when I got my guitar was Iron Man.

E7 E10 E10 E12 E12, E15 E14 E15 E14 E15 E14, E12 E12 E10 E10. I can still remember it despite not playing it that basic way for many a year

Love that version of Wicked World. You can hear the jazz influences a bit in Tony Iommi's playing and more so in Bill Ward's drumming. Both had Jazz influences growing up. Geezer Butler too I'm sure. They mixed Blues and Rock with a little Jazz and created Heavy Metal. It's why they're my favorite band of all time. There's been a few Jazz groups that cover their songs.

I would love to see jazz renditions of their songs that sounds badass
