Happy Birthday, Geezer!

"If you polish things too much, it loses the feeling."


Terence "Geezer" Butler is best known as the bassist and primary lyricist for
Black Sabbath, as well as being attributed to giving the band its eponymous name.
One of the first bassists to down-tune and apply pedal effects to his instrument, he and
the mighty Sabbath would virtually create heavy metal in their discontent. Yay.
He turns 62 today.

Here Geezer talks about and illustrates some of his bass techniques
from several famous Sabbath songs.
