Gasp! I suppose Ozzy's Black Sabbath days have been sidetracked too then. I feel it is only right to send you down the path to the dark side.

Iron Man, Live in Paris - 1970.
Not the best version but this one should be treasured. Not because it's vintage but because it's early enough in his career that when he speaks to the crowd, you can still clearly understand his words.

War Pigs - 1970
A few weeks ago I went to see a friend's kids play at an open mike night. Even though the crowd was 99% nineteen to 25 year olds, the whole crowd got into singing Warpigs and they all knew the words. For a brief moment in time, I didn't feel old.

They both start very plain, dark, and simple but if you can make it to the end, you can't help but get hooked on the beat and the guitar licks.
