Black Sabbath And The Birth Of Heavy Metal
Marshall Headphones: On the Road
Jesse decides that for his next rock ‘n’ roll road trip he wants to investigate his first musical love – the original, authentic heavy metal sound from the UK, as pioneered by his heroes Black Sabbath in the 1970s. Before he sets off on his journey of discovery, Jesse invites one of his biggest musical idols and inspirations, Bill Ward, drummer of Black Sabbath, to meet him at his rehearsal space in LA. Jesse learns what it was like growing up in Birmingham, how Sabbath got together and changed rock history and, most importantly, gets some tips on where to go and who to meet on his pilgrimage to the UK.
