With 1973's Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, heavy metal godfathers Black Sabbath made a concerted effort to prove their remaining critics wrong by raising their creative stakes and dispensing unprecedented attention to the album's production standards, arrangements, and even the cover artwork.
As a result, bold new efforts like the timeless title track, "A National Acrobat," and "Killing Yourself to Live" positively glistened with a newfound level of finesse and maturity, while remaining largely faithful, aesthetically speaking, to the band's signature compositional style.
In fact, their sheer songwriting excellence may even have helped to ease the transition for suspicious older fans left yearning for the rough-hewn, brute strength that had made recent triumphs like Master of Reality and Vol. 4 (really, all their previous albums) such undeniable forces of nature.
But thanks to Sabbath Bloody Sabbath's nearly flawless execution, even a more adventurous experiment like the string-laden "Spiral Architect," with its tasteful background orchestration, managed to sound surprisingly natural, and in the dreamy instrumental "Fluff," Tony Iommi scored his first truly memorable solo piece.
If anything, only the group's at times heavy-handed adoption of synthesisers met with inconsistent consequences, with erstwhile Yes keyboard wizard Rick Wakeman bringing only good things to the memorable "Sabbra Cadabra" (who know he was such a great boogie-woogie pianist?), while the robotically dull "Who Are You" definitely suffered from synthesizer novelty overkill.
All things considered, though, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was arguably Black Sabbath's fifth masterpiece in four years, and remains an essential item in any heavy metal collection.

Condition of Vinyl: EX-. Both surfaces retain their original deep glossy sheen with no dulling.
There are lots of mainly hairline surface marks. However you need to know that none of these have any significant audible impact. There is only a visible one but equally light.
Remember i am grading my records under a very strong light. This is a GREAT copy!!!
LABELS: The labels are in great condition. Check photos.
I found no major audio issues of note - no scratches and no grove-wear or distortion. Plays with some very, very light surface noise on the run-ins and some of the quietest passages (but nothing I found in the slightest intrusive)
Plays great throughout , easily like an EX and sounds absolutely sensational.
This is an absolute gem of a record!!!. Beautiful!!! No jumps or skips.
Condition of Cover: EX+ or slightly better. AMAZING!!!!!
The unlaminated gatefold cover is in BEAUTIFUL condition, one of the best i have ever seen.
There is very, very light wear, a few very light creases.
The inner sleeve is in great condition .
The inside is practically perfect.
The spine is practically perfect.
The main problem is that the colour of the front and back are a bit faded.
I think that it will be very, very hard to find a better copy of this cover.
This is an absolute gem!!!!
Check photos!!!!

GRADING:
All records are graded using the UK ‘Record Collector’ format:
MINT (M): The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
PACKAGING INFORMATION:
LPs and singles will be sent in a record mailing envelope and will be protected by two cardboard stiffeners.
