Sabbath, Best of, Sabbath
I did not want this to be just another greatest hits list, and a list that focused on just Ozzy era Sabbath. Like with my Judas Priest list, the Sabbath list needed to go beyond commercially successful songs, and what are the most popular among fans. So many of the songs you may have on a Sabbath’s best of list probably did not make this list.
This list is comprised from all of Sabbath’s studio works, except for the 1986 release, Seventh Star. That album was intended to be Tony Iommi’s first solo record and was only released under the Sabbath name because of management and label pressures. I am also excluding the body of work from the 2007 reunion with Ronnie James Dio. Though the first three songs released with Dio in 2007 were under the Sabbath name on Black Sabbath the Dio Years, the band rebranded themselves as Heaven and Hell for touring and future releases.
What if… Judas Priest Had a Top Ten Best Songs of All Time?
What if…. Judas Priest Had a Top 10 Best Songs of All Time? Now and true Judas Priest fan knows there is no such thing as the Top Ten Judas Priest songs. You can come up with so many variations of such a list, and Priest just has far to many songs that are great to make a Top Ten. As a journalist I found this a challenge though, how to narrow down Priest extensive catalog to just TEN best songs. After some weeks of consideration and Priest pounding through my speakers, I came up with my Top Ten Best Judas Priest songs of all time. This is definitely open for debate, but for me this is a solid list.
