Sabbath were instrumental in getting me onto the path of creative thought and action as a kid. Absolutely amazing sound for a three piece (plus Ozzy!) and a big influence on my own playing.

They were (and remain) my absolute heroes who gave me something to really hold onto during those times it seemed I might be crushed to death by a very ordinary world. Without Sabbath I wonder if I would have survived my teens at all.

This album is a great compilation for those looking to take a first listen and contains a near comprehensive summary of the bands classic period.

An excellent introduction for one of the bands that set the standard for heavy metal. We Sold Our Soul for Rock & Roll features the original lineup of Black Sabbath, including Ozzy Osbourne on vocals; the songs are selected from the band's recordings up through 1975. The album features several classic songs, several of which are still on rock radio play lists: "Paranoid," "War Pigs," "Iron Man," and the ballad "Changes." There's also the humorous "Fairies Wear Boots," the vaguely psychedelic "Am I Going Insane," and the dark, macabre "Black Sabbath" and "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath." Most Sabbath fans will already have the albums from which the songs on this collection are taken. However, for the listener new to Sabbath, it's the perfect place to start. --Genevieve Williams
