Paranoid was the first LP that I purchased as a teen, much to my parent's dismay.

I only got to see Black Sabbath once. It was the year that Van Halen released their first album. Black Sabbath announced a "final" tour and Van Halen backed them up. I have a nice colour photo of Geezer Butler and a great black and white of Randy Rhoads with his signature spotted flying-V, who left us all too soon. I think Randy and Ozzy were pretty close friends. Given his lifestyle I think he did well to make it to 76.
