Mitch Van Beekum’s OZZY OSBOURNE fan site Ozzyhead.com (www.ozzyhead.com) currently has available a sample of an unreleased BLACK SABBATH song.

Check out a 53 second mp3 sample of the track ‘When I Came Down’ at this location.

The site has also posted the original report from Record Collector, reported on 9/24/03:

“In this month’s edition of record collector comes news of a newly discovered Sabbath acetate 45rpm record. On the A side is a track entitled ‘When I Come Down’ and is believed to have been recorded at studio’s in Birmingham between March and October ‘69. The song is described as short but boasting strong vocals and harmonica playing. It begins with a bluesy, pentatonic riff and although the guitar gets rather lost in the mix, the overall feel approximates to a slower take on ‘Evil Woman’, while much of the rhythm is like ‘NIB’, set up in half time to the riff. The track was written by locomotive keyboardist Norman Haines, although no keyboards appear on the track. On the B-side is a rough demo of ‘The Wizard’. Where, when, or if this track will ever show up on any kind of release will remain a mystery until further notice.”
