The original Black Sabbath lineup, featuring Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward, will perform at the "Back to the Beginning" concert on July 5 in Birmingham, England. It will mark the first time in 20 years the group's original members will play together. The landmark concert will also feature a set from Osbourne in what will be his last show.
On a more musical note, today is Bob Marley's 80th birthday.

I saw Black Sabbath in Louisville, KY back in the early 1970's.
Black Sabbath is a group that is often credited for being one of the main pioneers of the Heavy Metal music genre.
Back when their first album was release, Ozzie played the open track of that album for his Mom. She sat stunned, and then when the track was over, asked him, ~are you on drugs?~ That was a story related back then.

Lyrics excerpt ...
...
[Verse 1]
What is this that stands before me?
Figure in black which points at me
Turn 'round quick and start to run
Find out I'm the chosen one
Oh, no!
[Verse 2]
Big black shape with eyes of fire
Tellin' people their desire
Satan's sittin' there, he's smilin'
Watches those flames get higher and higher
Oh, no! No! Please, God, help me!
[Outro]
Is it the end, my friend?
Satan's comin' 'round the bend
People runnin' 'cause they're scared
The people better go and beware
No! No! Please, no!
