Black Sabbath Plays Baston 1970

 

It might come as a surprise that Black Sabbath with their original line-up of Ozzy Osbourne on vocals, Tony Iommi on guitar, Geezer Butler on bass and Bill Ward on drums, played on Saturday July 11th 1970 in a Marquee on the Baston Playing Field. A Barbecue and Dance was organised by the Baston Community Association and for 12 shillings and 6 pence (62½ new pence) you would have heard a band that became the founders of Heavy Metal music and led by the legend that is Ozzy Osbourne.
