Ok so I think its about time that I finally pick up some Black Sabbath .
Where should I start?
Should I pick up their first cd?
or start with the best?
Which one is the best?
I’m so lost and would appreciate some help. Cheers

Paranoid I'd imagine.

Paranoid is probably the easiest to get into. After that, just grab basically anything else they did before '76.

Just get the first 5 and consider it an investment.

MASTER OF REALITY is my favorite Ozzy era album. Vol4 has quite a muddy production. SBS probably the cleanest. Love early Sabbath.

I'm the total opposite. I think the production on Vol 4 suits it perfectly.
I hate the production on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath , far too sparse & tinny for my liking.

Lol. That's what makes music discussion the great subject it is. Vol 4 is a huge let down for me as it has some of their best tracks lost in a muddy malaise. I think MOR has the best guitar sound though. That chugging riff on INTO THE VOID pwns nearly every metal band!

Master of reality should be prescribed as a laxative.

I Say start with their debut album then pick up Paranoid.
