So the other day I got the urge to listen to some early Sabbath, when I realized that I've never really explored Heavy Metal in terms of years. i.e. I've never listened to just albums from 1980. I imagine I'd get a different sense of context when listening to Heaven and Hell, British Steel, and Iron Maiden back to back to back. I've done full discography listens of a lot of these bands, but never explorations of different eras. So I decided I'd start doing just that. Using Black Sabbath's first album as a benchmark, I'd go year to year starting with 1970 and listen to both classic/essential albums from each year as well as some hidden gems. Hopefully this not only gives me new context for albums I already know well, but also helps me find new appreciation for some and maybe discover some that I missed. This will also help me get more into genres that I'm less familiar with (mainly extreme metal genres). I plan on doing this slowly so i can fully digest what I hear.
I decided to make a thread for it so others can join in to discuss these classic albums and maybe suggest albums that I miss along the way. I'm sure I'll gloss over somebody's favorite at least once. It'll be like a discography discussion, but we're doing years. So without further ado, here are the albums I've selected for 1970:
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath/Paranoid
Deep Purple - In Rock
Hawkwind - Hawkwind
Led Zeppelin - III
Uriah Heep - Very 'eavy... Very 'umble
I've already listened to both Sabbath albums as that's what started this all. While you can hardly argue against Black Sabbath being the first Metal song, I think Paranoid has to be the first Metal album. The bulk of the first Sabbath album has a lot more of that blues/psychedelic flavor that Sabbath started out with. The riffs aren't quite as prominent yet. Paranoid on the other hand is darker, heavier, doomier, and all around more of what I would define as Metal. But that's all semantics. Paranoid still remains tied with Heaven and Hell as my favorite Sabbath albums, and an all time favorite in general.
