I love Metallica. But, there is something about Black Sabbath. I guess its the word SOUL. A mystical spiritual depth. No speed guitarist, no "Best drummer" in the world, can imitate soul. BLACK SABBATH, the spiritual masters of Metal. They are like the YODA of metal, masters with a huge depth that will last for ever.

Now you realize why Black Sabbath is the best band in the land. 🤘

Hetfield used to sing this Sabbra Cadabra pretty well, 30+ years of concerts, tours around the world, party's and all kinds of excesses obviously affected his voice, and the fact he is not young anymore

You do not get more legit than Geezer Butler playing with Metallica.

The singing can never compare to Ozzy Osbourne. He just has a special voice

2 of my favourite sabbath tunes along with Megalomania.

No one can play someone else music and give it a special flavor like metallica!

Great tribute of METALLICA invite Geezer Butler to perform two of the hardest pieces of the famous album "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath", this album a true classic of Heavy Metal, the first I bought from Sabbath when I was 17 years old, now I am over 60 and I continue to listen to them with great pleasure and pleasure the same as METALLICA.

Гизер- монстр металла

Metallica is great, but I really appreciate how good Sabbath is when you hear someone else do their songs.

geezer butler

I keep imagining Geezer saying to ozzy : " I don't know what was worse. James sinining Sabra Cadabra/A national Acrobatic or Metallica playing Iron Man/Paranoid "

As cool as this cameo is, maybe they should have gotten Bill Ward to do drums... permanently.

What a honor to play with so cool

What a show to see.

I love that James brought out the bullet belt for this one

a national acrobat has such an epic riff, a nice cover but a million times more powerful with the OZ!

Two of my ALL-TIME favorite Sabbath songs... even with Geezer onboard the great Metallica could not do justice to these 2 masterpieces. But funny to watch the attempt.

What a huge honor to play with this god.

I almost cried when he entered the stage.

holy crap this is awesome

Makes you really appreciate the sabbath.

The master is out teaching his disciples, Geezer is the man!
