The record

Title: Black Sabbath – Black Sabbath
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1970, Metal, Heavy Metal, Birmingham, England
Condition: G + just a few skips

Cultural Facts:

  1. Studio Lore: Recorded fast on a tiny budget in a couple days; the label pushed speed, so the album is basically a captured moment, not a sculpted one.

  2. Scene Ecology: Came from Birmingham’s working-class club circuit, where loud blues bands were reacting to industrial life, not chasing London’s art scene.

  3. Notable Myths: Ozzy’s “satanic” reputation got inflated by press fear—much of it was shock imagery layered onto a band that was closer to horror-movie fandom.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
