Black Sabbath

 

On this day in 1970, Black Sabbath released their eponymous debut album. According to Tony Iommi, the entire thing was recorded in a single day, which seems virtually impossible by today's standards. When asked how they were able to do it, Iommi simply said "We went in the studio and played our live set, and that was it." The album went on to peak at #8 in the UK and #23 in the US, but more importantly, it represents the birth of heavy metal as we know it.
