Nicely set out....though I have a different take on the winners in
71 - Sabbath for MAsters of Reality - I mean come on. Vs Fireballl?
72 - Purple (if only because of Made in Japan)
75 - Sabotage is (for me) much stronger than Stormbringer (Symptom of the Universe is a presonal fave)

Overall Sabs by a nose.

Black Sabbath, easily. I respect DP, but Sabbath is my choice.

Unfortunately, I do not enjoy the music of either of these two groups, but I'll vote for DP without hesitation.
