| I like both records but will go for Paranoid.Always felt that Bill Ward was very underrated. |

At that time I was a year old. My brother, who is ten years older than I am, started listening to rock music at age twelve or thirteen (including prog), but he never bought singles.I heard all music via him when I was a kid. I like both, but voted for "Black Knight". Both songs were played a lot on the dance floor though. -------------  BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

Paranoid.
Didn't tend to buy singles either... apart from Silver Machine, Virginia Plain and Theme One 'cos they weren't on the albums (if my memory doesn't fail me!).

Capital N
Anyway I was an album buyer mainly but I mostly bought Sweet singles. Paranoid is not very good so Black Night gets my vote. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/Snow_Dog" rel="nofollow">

| I actually preferred Sabbath's The Wizard which I remember being on a single around the time. Great blues-harp. Not sure if it was a B-side of Evil Woman or what. Still like Paranoid though. And Black Night of course. |

My brother had only one single, "Angels of Death" by Hawkwind, He saw it by chance and bought it because of the B-side "Transdimensional Man", which was not on the vinyl version of the album. ------------- BaldJean and I; I am the one in blue. |

anyway at the time i only got money enough to buy singles ( after hard job ) and it was hard to find albums around my town, i had to ride bike for 60 km with my friends to get a few, and when we saw a Floyd ,a Moodies or a creedence in the little shop , we were so excited

Paranoid (sorry I just got back from playing a gig and was half asleep when I read your thread  )I didn't buy singles but my mates did. Paranoid was THE one at the time. ------------- Tony C. |

I didn't even have a bike!
 Although, I was lucky (or unlucky!) enough to be just a short bus trip into Glasgow city centre. Glasgow had some awesome record shops back in the day... a visit to the original Virgin store was a very exotic experience in the eary '70s! You could always find a bargain in some of those wee dive stores. And budget albums like Relics and The Faust Tapes were a real godsend to a poor teenager. Even the straight shops were great in those days. I remember buying Foxtrot during a holiday visit to relatives in Luton, after seeing the album cover in the window of the Woolworth's store. Changed days! |

Black Night due to the amazing riffs throughout and the awesome keyboard solo.
The live version is amazing too!
I had this on a compilation in the early years and later got Paranoid on another compilation before i got the actual albums later. -------------

yes i see, but i love both,you know at the time, it was difficult to win a little money and more difficult to find out records, i remember i got to buy bargain records coming from jukebox to a guy at the market,but when i was in front of him with a little money, so cooooolll!!!

Hi everybody!
Paranoid without any doubt. I mean, who's able to define paranoia in one verse ("happiness i can not feel and love to me is so unreal") must be kind of a genius, eh. |
