Black Sabbath – Black Sabbath – Rhino Records 180G Vinyl LP
In stock now.
"Black Sabbath's debut album is the birth of heavy metal as we now know it. Compatriots such as Blue Cheer, Led Zeppelin, and Deep Purple were already setting new standards for volume and heaviness in the realms of psychedelia, blues-rock, and prog rock. Yet of these metal pioneers, Sabbath are the only one whose sound today remains instantly recognizable as heavy metal, even after decades of evolution in the genre. Guitarist Tony Iommi's loss of two fingertips, which required him to play slower and to slacken the strings by tuning his guitar down, created Sabbath's signature style. These qualities set the band apart, but they weren't wholly why this debut album transcends its clear roots in blues-rock and psychedelia to become something more. Sabbath's genius was finding the hidden malevolence in the blues, and then bludgeoning the listener over the head with it." — AllMusic

Bad Company – Run With The Pack (Atlantic 75 Series) Analogue Productions 180g 2LP 45RPM Vinyl
Released in early 1976, the title track of Bad Company’s third album “Run With The Pack” is, what one critic described as, “a male-bonding type of song” that frontman Paul Rodgers was inspired to write about the group’s non-stop touring adventures.
“Run With The Pack” is notable for its string arrangement, which Rodgers said he had in mind from the outset. “I wrote that song on the piano, and when I played it to the guys they fell right in. In my head, strings were always part of the song.”
