I love MoR (not so keen on the first or Paranoid) but SBS and Sabotage outweigh it's many good points.
V4 would be great if remastered/remixed so that it didn't sound like they were in a tin can.

Surprised at the vote....thought the first era would romp.  I get off the boat at Masters.
I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there.....

I thought the best way of understanding the two eras was BS to Vol4 (with my favourite Wheels of Confusion) and the next four. Which are very interesting indeed.

No idea which to vote.

Not an easy choice, but not too terribly hard, either: in going with the condition specific to this poll, I opt for Vol. 4/SBS/Sabotage. The latter two arguably represent the zenith of Ozz-era Sabbath.

The first album, Paranoid and Master of Reality.
When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

I'm still getting to know the band, but for what I've heard, I could have almost all I would enjoy most of them with the live albums "Live Evil" and "Reunion". The best songs, and mostly with better, heavier, more energetic versions... and in the case of "Live Evil", with a much better singer.

In my life I listened many times to these nice tracks: The Thrill Of It All, The Straightener (Studio Version), Under The Sun Every Day Comes and Goes, Snowblind, as well others I can't remeber now. There is a song which doesn't have much of the genre but is quite inrteresting: Laguna Sunrise. Fluff has somewhat an alike atmosphere.

Vol 4, SBS & Sabotage are my three favorite Sabbath albums hands down.  The first 6 Sabbath albums are all excellent and worth owning, but the three I voted for are my absolute favorites.

The first 4 are the only ones I own .....oh, I have the newest one also; a gift from  my older daughter.
I bought the first album when it came out and of course Paranoid (didn't buy Master and 4 until many years later..) but it seemed that over the years I no longer had much interest in their brand of heavy rock.

BS=3 + Paranoid=4 + MoR=4 = 11
Vol4=3 + SBS=4 + Sabotage=4 = 11
 
I can't decide as both groupings hold different emotions and memories for me and love them all, I will not vote and leave it tied at 29.

I went for option 1, but my fave BS track is arguably Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. I am playing in a Black Sabbath tribute band at the end of May, so i'm really looking forward to playing some fine tunes from these albums.
