Yesterday’s movie snippet answer: Black Sabbath, 1963 Did the movie deliver on what the poster promised?

This guy does no research. It would have taken him 5 minutes to find out about the band, its history and who was playing. Really poor

I like the ones where David Coverdale sings, John Lord plays keyboards, Ritchie Blackmore plays guitar, Ian Paice plays drums and Glen Hughes plays bass. Not so sure about the other ones on this album though.

Scott Hastings, a man of integrity, honesty and empathy. A player who never gave below his maximum. There is nothing more you can ask as a legacy. RIP

Is that the one where they were only supposed to blow the bl**dy doors off?
