`BEST OF` is misleading
The edit/fade of version of IRON MAN makes no sense to me at all. It`s one of their best and most beloved and well known songs and should have been included in its full length version, even if it meant leaving off one of their later, lesser songs. Do yourself a favor and skip this disc and try to buy the remastered versions of PARANOID and MASTER OF REALITY from the Amazon UK site. I would recommend you stay away from any Black Sabbath (or Ozzy disc solo for that matter) that list Sharon Osburne anywhere in the credits. She has done nothing but try to rewrite the history the this great band....what a shame!
I think this could have been better
Admittedly I am only a causal fan of Black Sabbath. I grew up in the decade of these hits, but this leaves me slightly flat. I am practically not fond of the track order. All of the tracks seem to sound alike. I remembered more originally during their height of popularity. Fortunately, for Sabbath fans Ozzie meant more than theatrics & his voice was the main power behind the band. And here, Ozzie is still the main reason to buy this CD. Also, for some comparisons, I suggest you pick up a Best of Cream CD or AC/DC`s Back in Black.
Great
I got this for Christmas last year and loved it. I still do. It has some of the best Sabbath songs on there, but I only have two real questions:
1. Why is Iron Man edited? It`s still good, but come on.
2.Where`s Johnny Blae? Fairies Wear Boots?

Apart from those, this is a near-perfect CD. It also has a little pamphlet thingy, that talks about the history of Black Sabbath. All in all, great.
