11 Comments on Was Pope Francis a Black Sabbath fan in his youth?
The best Black Sabbath album is “Seventh Star.” The Voice Of Rock Glenn Hughes just scorches Earth on those vocals!

Wasn’t he in Led Zeppelin?
Twisted Sister
I’ll bet if you dig hard enough you’ll find him in a Che T-shirt
Picture on the left is as fake as Hillary’s smile.
If you play Sabbath Bloody Sabbath backwards at 16rpm you can hear Pope Francis’ entire New York speech.
Around the mid ’70s I attended many concerts by the big acts of the time. By the mid ’80s I had collected a shoebox full of ticket stubs.
I recall a couple of shows where Sabbath opened for Blue Oyster Cult. BOC was louder, cleaner and tighter than Sabbath by a wide margin. Sadly, the original lineup is no longer intact. Albert, Joe and Allen (RIP Allen) have been replaced by a varying array of sidemen, leaving Buck and Eric as the core. A bright spot is the addition of Ritchie Castellano, a spectacular guitarist.
This song has evolved considerably since it first appeared.
There is a pile of BOC vids on YT, worth a look if this holds any interest for you at all. With some effort it is possible to view lots of material by this remarkable band, spanning over 4 decades. Unfortunately the live videos from the 70’s and the 80’s are of relatively poor quality and provide only a pale imitation of the impact of the live shows.
But damn! Those shows with the original members ROCKED!!
There are some bootlegs with decent sound.
For instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=NDzS7gbcmvs
I don’t mean to hijack the thread, but I find this more interesting than the current hoopla about the Pope,
And the possible Devil Music connection sent me off on this tangent.
(I’ll shut up now.)
I always figured he was Black Francis in The Pixies.

Allen takes the first solo, then it’s Buck’s turn.
