    You're not wrong.

    I used to dismiss the complaints as nostalgia from the vinyl die-hards.
    Even though I had a nagging feeling that my shiny new digital components didn't sound quite the same.
    Then I saw recently a few videos by Rick Beato on YouTube.
    (Sorry, I didn't bookmark any of them, look him up on YT if interested).

    Beato demonstrates the technical skill and deliberate choices involved in creating the "Black Sabbath Sound".
    It's at least partly a matter of harmonics and sub-harmonics, and also the effect of specifically tuned pickups and amps.
    Plus the sub-harmonics of analog equipment in general.


    And he demonstrated why, all in all, it's difficult to capture digitally.
    I'm not a sound engineer, so I hope I didn't butcher that summary.

    I'm not sure. It could very well be just the sound system itself is lacking. The wife unhooked all my hi-fi shit and put it in a corner of the basement. She feared it wasn't good for the animals or something at the volume I would occasionally listen to it.
    The best I have now is in my Tacoma that was upgraded with the OEM Audio super deluxe that I have a unresolved issue, but it still jams pretty good. Loud and clear enough you couldn't have a conversation anyway :rofl:

    Could be....and sometimes is. But maybe I'm not remembering it correctly and it asked what outdoor activity. ??

    One of the videos I referenced.
    Tech heavy on the analog equipment.
    Starting at about 5:48 minutes is the explanation as to why it's hard to capture digitally.

    I think for it to be a sport, both sides need to be willing participants.

    I sold a lot of my older concert tee shirts on E-bay . They didn’t fit anymore . An original Guns and Roses shirt from their first tour I got $140 . I have some shirts . I have a nice Metallica/ Godsmack shirt somewhere !

    I checked that out and found it really cool. Makes me wish I could shred:rofl:
    They also touched on Geezer's technique playing into the sound. I believe he had a stub finger too, haha, or recall something about that stub also contributed to his sound.
    I'm going to try and find another example.

    So at a minute 35 into the song, the guitar just doesn't seem as pronounced or dirty. Like I mentioned could just be the lack of sound system I'm using now. May just dig out that older receiver/amp and hook that all back up and try it tomorrow.
