Black Sabbath - Early Demos (1969)

Tracklist (YouTube links) :
01 The Rebel (02:46)
02 When I Came Down (01:50)
03 Thomas James (08:29)
04 Early One Morning Blues (04:43)

Note:
In August 1969 BLACK SABBATH's manager Jim Simpson suggested that the band record 'The Rebel', a song written by Norman Haines (of the NORMAN HAINES BAND & LOCOMOTIVE). The session for "The Rebel", took place at Trident Studios in London. Haines also took part in this session, playing organ and piano. Two months later, the band recorded yet another Haines composition called 'When I Came Down'.

"When I Came Down" was recorded at Zella Studios in Birmingham in October. The song is short but boasts strong vocals. It begins with a bluesy, pentatonic riff and although the guitar gets rather lost in the mix, the overall feel approximates to a slower take on "Evil Woman".

According to Iommi, "We didn't write those songs. They were written by a chap named Norman Haines. At the time we were managed by Jim Simpson, who was a local Birmingham guy. He insisted that we record these songs. We just wanted to play, so we recorded them. We wanted to write our own songs and make our own record, but this was just an initial effort. We had never been in a recording studio in our lives before that."

The third song here is a lengthy jazz influenced instrumental called "Thomas James", which features Simpson on trumpet, trading licks with Iommi, which eventually slows into a trademark SABBATH doom-laden rifftastic finale. It is unknown exactly when and where this was recorded, but it's likely that it's an outtake from one of the two known 1969 sessions.

Final song, "Early One Morning Blues", sounds like it comes from a rehearsal tape rather than an official demo session, and as the title suggests it's a blues romp with lashings of fine fret mangling courtesy of Iommi.

These songs represent the birth of BLACK SABBATH, the secret first steps, enjoy this peek into the murky past.

Comments :
This is something we all never ever even dared to dream of - the recording sessions of Tony Iommi and Glenn Hughes from 1996. Hot and brandnew tracks which were said to never see the light of the day again. The soundquality is similar to the "Eternal Idol Demos" with Ray Gillen on vocals. Besides the session tracks the CD also includes "Shakin' My Wings" which is actually a cover version of Jethro Tulls "Cry Me A Song" with Glenn Hughes on vocals but not Tony Iommi on guitar. Last track is the video version of "No Stranger To Love". Dave Holland is a former Judas Priest drummer. The CD was released in Japan in 1999! One year later a second edition of 500 copies were done, exactly the same CD, only on the back it says "Second Edition" instead of "Limited Edtion 500 Copies", not numbered.

This is the complete Lund show. A real 'monster' from the deep this one!! This show catches the Sabs at their peak on the Technical Ecstasy tour. The set list probably stayed the same for the whole tour. Ozzy does not swear once throughout the whole gig! How Rock n Roll is that!! Excellent sound quality.

Sound Quality between 8.5 and 10 out of 10 (Changes from track to track)

Notes:

- this is the complete and ultimate set of Dehumanizer demos, featuring many different versions of songs that appeared on the Dehumanizer album and songs that didnt make the Cut

- the first two tracks of CD 2 are actually from Geezer Butlers band in the mid 80s featuring Carl Sentence, they feature early versions of Master of Insanity and Computer God, although Computer God dosent sound anything like what ended up on the Dehumanizer album Master of Insanity is very, very simillar

- Disc 2 also features Letters From Earth with different lyrics and two songs that didnt make the album, 'Bad Blood' and 'The Next Time'

- Disc 3 features a version of Computer God that is lyrically nothing like the one on the album but musically the same, also a few instrumental rehearsals of the track aswell as a short conversation between Ronnie and Cozy (nothing special really)

- the only reason Cozy wasnt on the final cut of the album was because soon after these demos he broke his pelvis in a horse ridding accident and was unable to play for a short time, Dio wanted to bring Simon Write in (from Dio's last album 'Lock up the Wolves') but Iommi and Butler decided he sounded to AC/DCish
and got back Big Vinny (Vinny Appice)

NOTES :
This isn't Black Sabbath's demo but a Tony Iommi solo demo album.

Recorded during January - May 1985 at Cherokee Studios, Hollywood, CA.

Track 13 was actually recorded for a Lita Ford album! The song “The Thrill Is Gone” is a cover of an old B.B. King blues classic. The track was recorded in Hollywood at the same studio where the band had been working on Tony’s solo project and includes Tony’s band (Spitz, Singer AND Iommi). The song was never actually used for her record and remains an “outtake”.

When Black Sabbath ended their relationship with Ian Gillan in the early part of 1984, so he could go back to Deep Purple, Iommi, Butler, and once again Bill Ward were out of a vocalist. After a quick search, it was decided to hire an unknown vocalist by the name of Dave Donato (also see White Tiger ) to fill the empty vocal chair. But almost as soon as he was hired, he was fired due to his egotistical remarks that were printed in a British rock magazine.

In January 1985: Tony Iommi, with the help of his fiance Lita Ford's backing band, Eric Singer on drums & Gordon Copley on bass, planned out his very first solo album.
Between January and May of 1985, Tony Iommi started to write his first ever solo album "Star Of India" together with vocalist Jeff Fenholt.
Something happened between the two resulting in Iommi ending their working relationship. Also at this time Gordon Copley left the band to rejoin Lita Ford, and was replaced by Dave "The Beast" Spitz, but Copley did finish one complete bass line for what eventually would be "No Stranger To Love".
Jeff Fenholt became the singer of JOSHUA's "Surrender" album (Japan 1985, rest of the world 1986).
