>Top 3 feels like asking me which fingers I would like cut off, the first 6 are all 10/10 to me.
Haha if only someone had asked Tony the same thing! I agree though, their early-mid 70s output is obviously peak. For me, it's
>Paranoid
>Master of Reality
>Black Sabbath
I've never bothered much with the Dio era because Rising (1976) is superior and Sabbath without Ozzy frankly just isn't Sabbath. That goes for all four of them, really; speaking as a drummer, Bill Ward is criminally underrated (see: Supernaut) and his lack of presence was apparent on 13. Also, Ozzy's solo career is hit-or-miss but it goes without saying he still had plenty of classics (Mr. Crowley and Crazy Train both come to mind).
>This really sucks, the last time a celeb death got to me like this was Bowie
I still remember where I was when I found out Bowie passed so I feel that. Hearing about Brian Wilson sucked too, but Bowie was much more unexpected given he had literally just put out a new album the same weekend. It made his death that much more memorable, for better or worse, and I personally thought it was very fitting for someone like him to go out like that.

A respectable top 3. I'm hard on Dio era Sabbath but Heaven and Hell gets a pass.
