OH YEEEEAAAAHHH!!!! You guys rocked this!!! Great vocals, the phrasing was a little bit diffrent then Ozzy's at times, but no distraction to me...and those guitars kick!! One of my fav Sab's and you guys captured the vibe really great......if I had to nit...the guitar solo seemed just a tad buried up to the drum breakdown thing, but sounded killer during that part....
Congrats guys...great job!!!

Thanks. I was afraid. My ears were getting tired.

Hey man,

This has been gnawing at me since last night... While I think the song sounds really good from beginning to end, I'd be lying if I said I didn't get a little bored with it by the end. Somewhere after the 4 minute mark I start thinking that it's very repetitive and long. I realize you're dealing with source material here, so maybe the way you have it is validated by the historical context of the song... but if you could choose a few bars to trim here and there....

The original song is actually longer. It has a long bass solo in the beginning and the ending is a little longer. So I did shorten it some.

I did lower that guitar solo a little. I kept thinking it was too loud. :)

Thanks Queep. yeah, I messed up a couple of lines. I did some retakes and still need to comp them together. Probably tonight.

Yeah, Bushmaster did a great job and I just wanted to try to help out a little. I really like the way it came out.
 
Guitar sound is nailed. Great production. I like it better than the original...what I remember of it...but it sounds 'empty' sometimes...like I remember three was more going on??
 
Sabbath were a huge part of my listening experience (& other sorts) throiugh the 70's. I still listen to them often (manily Sabb Bloody Sabb)
Nice take on this classic gents. The guitars are almost spot on. the vocals are good, a couple of inflections & changes to establish that it's not too slavish.
Well done - I enjoyed listening - & I rarely do to covers.

Thanks Ray. Chili sent me a new vocal take. Will be sometime this week when I get to putting it in. My damn C drive took a dump in my DAW rig. So I have spent the last day reloading software. I keep my tracks on another drive and backed them up earlier.
 
Sounds really nice Bushmaster!

This was on the first cassette I bought back in the early '80's...I eventually got the LP too. I wore both of them out.

Drums sound awesome on this and the guitars definitely capture most of the high points in the song.

Vocals are a little strained but very spirited. Overall, a fine cover indeed.:)

Thanks. Just finished up another Sabbath tune in which Chili is going to supply the vocals.
