I got drunk with Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler. And when I woke up, I was in Black Sabbath.

Propaganda for David Lee Roth era: Diamond Dave had a party boy swagger that could only be imitated by Sammy Hagar. This first lineup is where the band's legend was made! Where Eddie Van Halen became a guitar god! Almost no Hagar era stuff gets played on the radio nowadays.

“Twelve years ago Jimmy Page had a volume pedal for violin sounds. But Big Jim Sullivan was actually the first person in England to use a volume pedal. But "You Really Got Me," by the Kinks was Jimmy Page because Jon Lord, our organ player, played piano on that session and Dave Davies was nowhere to been seen.

But Jimmy used to run around telling everyone that he played on certain records. I asked him if he played on "The Crying Game" - that was Dave Berry - and "My Baby Left Me." He said, "Yes, I played guitar on that." What he didn't say was that he played rhythm guitar on it.

Big Jim Sullivan played the solo on "The Crying Game." He was livid when he heard what Jimmy was running around saying, because Jimmy had always used his guitar and everything. Jimmy played rhythm guitar because the lead guitar bit was a reading part and Jimmy couldn't read.”

— Ritchie Blackmore, by Martin K. Webb
