Happy 70th birthday today to Bill Ward the original drummer for Black Sabbath who was born on 4/5/48. Ward has established a pounding style all his own and helped create some of the most distinguishable fills in metal history. Unfortunately, Ward wasn’t along for Sabbath’s final farewell tour, but those old Sabbath albums still sound vital today. Check Ward lay the beats for s”Fairies Wear Boots” live in 1970..
