This is probably one of my favorite Black Sabbath albums. The odd thing about this one is that Ozzy Osbourne isn't even on it. This was the first one that featured Ronnie James Dio who replaced Ozzy in 1979.
This album did fantastically on the Billboard 200 topping out at #28. This album just kills it and moves very quickly with songs like "Neon Knights", "Lady Evil" and my personal favorite "Children Of The Sea".
So lets put this one under the Heavy Metal needle and RIP Ronnie James Dio� Ladies and Germs, released on Warner Bothers in 1980, Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell album�And remember to keep one foot in the gutter and one fist in the gold!!
