I have never heard the original, thanks for posting. For years and years I never even knew the Sab version was a cover. Both are great songs, but I guess I will have to favor the Sab song (of course). Geezer and Bill just give it such a killer groove, Ozzy's vocals is eerie as hell, and Tony... well he is my hero, so yeah, the Sab version.

I can't get with the vocalist after hearing Sabbath's for so many years. Obviously the band pales in comparison to Sabbath, but yeah I thought it'd be interesting to some folks, and the original isn't terrible by any means.

I dig 'em both! Thanks for sharing!
Dunbar was a very influential drummer and the whole band sounds great - more Bluesbreakers vibe than the unique Sabbath swing thing.
