Although both are brilliant, I prefer Mob Rules, for two reasons. I think the production is better and there are no weaker tracks.

Led Zep 2. At 8 ? Sheesh

Mob Rules is strong, gets better with age, Heaven and Hell is one of the greatest albums ever made, imho.

Im.convinced Voodoo and Sign of the southern cross were written by the Devil

Mob rules I like every song

Heaven and Hell. I bought both albums, in 1980 and ‘81 respectively, and while both are excellent H&H is my preference of the two.

Great discussion about Black 🖤 Sabbath Riff Worship 🙏 and Dio .. i purchased both remastered and remixed records with the seperate Double live album and fits this little pocket of some of the BEST Black Sabbath albums back to Back again 😃👍

Entangled too long? You gotta be kidding. If there ever was a song that is the perfect length, it's every song on this album, especially Entangled. That instrumental coda would be too long if they went another round with it, and way too short if they cut out that last round where the bass pedals gloriously takes your attention to heaven. So, just like Mad Man Moon, Dance On A Volcano, and the title track just perfect length. Robbery Assault And Battery might be too long for its own good, but I might be biased because it's my least favorite and everything else are great songs.

Mob Rules is a 10, one of the best metal albums ever made. Deep tracks like Slipping Away, Country Girl and Voodoo are incredible. Heaven and Hell is an 8, Wishing Well and Walk Away are not bad but definitely a step down from the rest of the album.

Like Pete I have been debating these two albums for years it's almost like choosing between two kids lol.....I have to say heaven and hell only because of how I felt for the first time I heard neon knights come out of my speakers OMG i couldn't believe it. Black Sabbath is my favorite band of all time and to get a singer like DIO come in to replace Ozzy, WOW amazing stuff. Great episode, thank you from Georgetown Ontario.

Way late to the party but here ya go 9. Coda 8. Presence 7. In Through The Outdoor 6. IV 5. I 4. II 3. Houses Of The Holy 2. Physical Grafiti 1. III

In recent years, about the last 10 - 15, Mob Rules is the one I return to more often than not of the two. And maybe this is because I played the hell out of H&H since the late 80s. I certainly played it a lot more than Mob Rules. If push came to shove then I'd sway with Mob Rules of the two, but it is almost unfair to make a choice, both are incredible, even the songs you guys don't like I like. I just can't fault these two albums. Country Girl has a Wicker Man vibe about it to me, the Geezer and Tony dual soloing on Slipping Away, "AH COME ON" that Dio screams on MB... I could go on, great album. Great albums.

Mob Rules has no weak moments, but Heaven and Hell has Walk Away. Mob Rules also has the better production.

I was at the Monsters Of Rock Festival that inspired And The Bands Played On. Denim And Leather is always my number 1.

If you haven’t done it already, now you have to do Blizzard vs. Diary.

Mob Rules

My top 7: 7. Goats Head Soup 6. Metamorphisis 5. A Bigger Bang (2005) 4. Sticky Fingers (1971) 3. Tattoo You (1981) 2. Let It Bleed (1969) 1. Beggars Banquet (1968) My top 5 WORST Stones albums" 5. Steel Wheels 4. Decembers Children 3. Dirty Work 2. Black & Blue 1. Its Only Rock & Roll

1. Virgin Killer 2. Taken By Force 3. In Trance 4. Lovedrive 5. Fly to the Rainbow

HEAVEN AND HELL is the best album DIO/RAINBOW.....NEVER made....its good but NOT heavy enough for SABBATH....MOB RULES has that dark satanic gypsy vibe....

I'm with Hack on this one. Actually I love both albums but Mob Rules is waaay ahead of Heaven & Hell. Lady Evil is too Foreignerish,especially the opening.Lonely is the Word ends,despite Tony's great solo,with keyboards that echo the rhythm guitar during the solo of Zeps Stairway to Heaven,but I never skip those songs at any rate. Mob Rules has got that unbelievable production,probably Martin Birch's best,more consistent songs,more powerful,heavier,more agressive,Ronnie's most snarling vocal ever,probably due to the tension that was going on within the band at this point,but it only adds to the power of the album, I agree also with Hack in that these two albums have the greatest Dio of his entire career,even though I have to side with Martin that I really love those daringly creative latter Ozzy era albums,and yes I love Never Say Die!

Country girl sounds a bit like something grandpa Simpson would sing .

I go with Mob Rules just because Sign of the Southern Cross is my favorite Sabbath tune.

Mob Rules. Everything is better on it, songs, the production. On H&H there are few songs they are not on the same level with H&H and Neon Nights and the production is uneven and dry.Mob Rules has only one lesser song, Country Girl, but the production is fantastic and it Has the best BS song ever Sign of the Southern Cross. Turn Up the night, Voodoo and Falling Off The Edge Of The World are all high quality BS.

If you're looking for a Hendrix inspiration for Catch The Rainbow, try Little Wing. Guitar parts and vocals...

Both are phenomenal, without question and Sign Of The Southern Cross is my all time favorite Sabbath song but H&H was my introduction to Sabbath so for sentimental reasons I’m going with H&H.

Lonely is the word is fantastic

4 min: "rather melodic European thing" - this is pure thesis replacement. Europeans have played and still play real Heavy Metal. While there are a million bands in America whose ideal is Kiss...

I was a 18yrs old and working in a record shop and had no idea of a new Sab album coming out(the boss was all Eagles,Fleetwood Mac,etc never would tell me what he ordered.)Really surprised when I flipped the cover over and there’s Dio.Had no idea he was no longer in Rainbow.This lp saved Sabbath.Btw I have always loved Wishing Well.Great chords and for my money one of Tony’s greatest solos like Kill in the Spirit World of Headless Cross.I cannot understand the dislike for the song.And Die Young is ok but really I prefer Wishing Well.

Jesus enough of the "heading to the Tony Martin years" schtick

Over and Over is a killer doom track - Dio's lyrics and vocals on that are incredible - can't see how anyone sees it as "meh"

Mob Rules > H&H

Over And Over > Lonely Is The Word

Love the bass on H&H. Why wouldn't you want it up? Perfect mix in my opinion.

Enjoyed this show immensely thanks Hack. Pardo's passionate words regards H&H the song was touching. For me both albums are equal but if forced it'd be H&H as both are phenomenal albums cheers \m/

Mob Rules by a hair!

Both albums in my top 20 of all time w mob rules barely edging out heaven

The intro to falling of the edge of the world is the finest piece of music ever written

Heaven and Hell was the first Black Sabbath I heard around the age of 11 (thanks to my big brother). I thought the title track was heavy, mysterious, and poetic. It seemed like serious music that was saying something. Now I'm 53. I still think it's a masterpiece.

Awesome! Great show!

H&H is still my favorite BS album, no contest.

I've got to go with Sir Guitar Hack. Mob Rules sounds like the band put it all together and improved upon a great thing. Both lp's are timeless, though.

Phenomenal. And great show with Martin and Pete. Great sound. HACK 👍💯

Did anyone else notice both Martin and Pete forgot to talk about Voodoo? Lol

Come on!!! Mob Rules rules, by a country (girl) mile over H&H, though the four stand-out songs on that record are indeed brilliant. But Mob Rules is much much more consistent and somehow more substantial, and I really like Over And Over as well as the closer. The mellow part in Falling Off the Edge of the World is spine-tingling!! Pure Ronnie 💜

It has to be Mob Rules for me over Heaven And Hell, although both are obviously classics. These two albums are probably the two Sabbath albums releases I play the most out of the entire catalogue

I love both albums but gotta pick Heaven & Hell 🔥🔥🔥

Ronnie took a bit of rainbows light and shade to Tony’s riffs

As a complete album Mob Rules wins. However, Heaven and Hell has three classics that are so perfect nothing else touches them on Mob rules save maybe sign of the southern cross

Personaly Heaven and Hell is the perfect album of all time RJD finest piece of work IMO every track is 100%

Gotta shout out Lady Evil. It’s a quintessential Ronnie tune and a nice groovy interlude between the two epic songs of children of the sea and heaven and hell
