    Only part of the story
    Look, let me first say I love Sabbath and I have everything Ozzy has ever done as well. I grew up to the soundtrack of their music and it is part of my life.

    However this documentary lost its credibility to me instantly when I realised that it purposely left people out.

    Note, hardly a word from Tony Iommi, who lets face it, was the leader of Black Sabbath. You cannot tell this story without Iommi. There would be no Sabbath without Iommi. This was done I suspect because Sharon Osborne still does not like him. Either way leaving him out was a gross error, or indeed on prupose.

    BUT the worse thing that ruined it to me was the removing from history two of the people who actually WROTE Blizzard of Oz and Diary of a Madman with Ozzy and Randy. Namely; Bob Daisley and Lee Kerslake. And then were the excellent rhythm section that contributed so much to it.

    At one point they show a picture of the rehearsals for the first album. A well known picture that has Daisley in it. In this documentary he was EDITED OUT. Live footage too was cropped to remove them and only show Osborne and Rhodes. What a pathetic and petty sham, especially as the great Kerslake has now died.

    I detect the hand of Sharon on this who had a problem when they asked for royalties and disgracefully rerecorded the album without them to remove their claims.

    So this is an OK documentary, ruined by purposefully erasing people from it for various reasons who were part of it.
