An unexpected piece of stoner rock from the most influential heavy metal album ever, ‘Planet Caravan’ is possibly an attempt by Black Sabbath to provide an interlude to their sonic chaos, as well as feeling not unlike Miles Davis’ ‘In A Silent Way’. It could be because both tracks show a psychedelic side of their respective genres. Also unexpected, I guess, because Black Sabbath, like many heavy metal bands, have been wrongfully stereotyped as unimaginative and limited, simply on account of their general direction. Now that Ozzy has passed on, expect all sorts of revisionism to emerge.
