#10 Black Sabbath – We Sold Our Soul For Rock’N’Roll


Starting the list off with a compilation/best of CD this album features the very best of Black Sabbath. By the time I came around to this one I had already been fully enmeshed in grunge and just having picked up a guitar for myself I began learning to play with a cover band (I was mostly a roadie helping set up and tear down sets) and learned many of the songs on this one thus realizing where all the metal bands got their influence. We Sold Our Soul For Rock’N’Roll blew me away with the combination of raw power and intricate playing along with the vocal power of Ozzy. Probably the biggest surprise for me was for all the raw metal power in many of the riffs, Sabbath also has a bluesy feel in many of the songs like “The Wizard”, “Fairies Wear Boots”, and “N.I.B.”.


We Sold Our Soul For Rock’N’Roll was my gateway into 60’s and 70’s rock, what had at the time recently become Classic Rock.
