‘Paranoid’ Documentary Will Be Released Soon

The Black Sabbath album Paranoid is going to be the subject of a documentary.  (The full article is available at Gibson.)

This is another documentary that I’m going to have to keep an eye out for.  (I still haven’t found a copy of the Anvil movie in a local store.  I’m going to have to give up and resort to Amazon.)

This is one of the best Black Sabbath albums of all time.  And it was highly influential in shaping my taste in music.  Black Sabbath was one of the first bands that I really explored after I finally figured out that metal and hard rock were the way to go when it came to what I truly enjoyed.  And I’ve always had a weakness for music documentaries.  (I guess that traces back to when I was in college and I used to leave ‘Behind the Music’ on the TV while I did my homework.)

Some people find that documentaries and stuff like ‘Behind the Music’ ruins their appreciation for the music after they see it.  I find that it increases my appreciation for the music once I know more about the creative process that it came from.    Especially in a band like Black Sabbath, where the influence of their music is so widespread.  The more I know, the more I can understand the common threads that tie the music together, and the differences that bring it to life.

Anyway, this sounds really interesting.
