Black Sabbath's debut is an obvious one. Side one is the best thing they ever did and makes it my fav Sabbath album all by itself, but side two is just a big sack of meh. I don't know who told them they knew how to jam, but that person is obviously a pathological liar.

God yes. I can only assume that the record label told him he had to fill the B-Side with B-Rate ballads.
