On the Wikipedia entry for the album, it says it's Bill Ward, and so it does on the band's website. Therefore, we have to assume it was really him.

With Ozzie?  "Vol. 4"

With Dio?  "Heaven and Hell" - I thought that the band took a HUGE step forward, musically, with H&H!  I often play these tunes to warm up, and go "Wot the hell happened to Iommi on this LP??"  

His technique & lead playing SOARS on H&H!  Mind you, I love the other stuff, too, but...I've read reviews that said this was the "best heavy metal album ever made," and I am inclined to support that view.

I always thought Ozzy-era beats all following ones. I admit that I was totally amazed by the 'live evil' though. Much less by the studio Dio-era albums.
 
 
No, it's not a good record. It's just that the poll allows multiple votes and somebody fooled around voting multiple times Born Again.
 
Thanks for clarifying, Pablo. Phew, I was ready to go and buy this record today...

Black Sabbath's debut followed closely by Paranoid. I also like Headless Cross despite Ozzie's absenceStar

I'll break the silence and admit i voted for Born Again, may be a sin, to vote for the Gillan/Sabbath,
but it is a great very unik album.

By the way...

Tomorrow will be the 40th birthday of heavy metal: on the 13th of February 1970, Black Sabbath released its first LP.
Celebrate.

don't think I've voted in this..

nope.. I haven't..

going with the debut..  but a shout out to Sabotage which has recently been my most listened to Sabbath album. Probably has a lot to do with Symptom of the Universe being neck and neck with Immer Lustig as my favorite track to get the blood flowing on the drive in to work in the morning.

Wow. So few votes for what I always thought was their most acclaimed album (Paranoid).

Heaven & Hell remains one of my favourite rock albums of all time. Even now, I marvel at how Dio resurrected that band.

Close second to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath - after all, it did have the maestro on keysWink

I find it very hard to choose. even though I already had it on vinyl I recently bought the deluxe edition of their 1st album which I've really been enjoying again lately.

1. Master of Reality
2. Paranoid
3. Black Sabbath
4. Heaven and Hell
5. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath

(And yes, I know the album art for "Born Again" is my avatar, and even though I think it's a great album, it's not in my top 5)
