Andy Partridge (XTC) : I’d previously heard a lot of things that were described as heavy, such as Steppenwolf, but they paled into insignificance when I heard Black Sabbath. I bought that first album, and I’d never heard anything like it before. It had a demonic atmosphere but was also slightly comic. So I went to see them at McIlroy’s Ballroom in Swindon and I thought they were great. I was in the early stages of learning to play guitar and I used to play along with every track on that album until I got them perfect. I can still play every track.
