Black Sabbath - Tony Iommi Live Guitar Solo (my personal favorite)

- Tony Iommi's Guitar Solo from the Boston 8/9/92 show. This is my personal favorite of all his guitar solos, because it is chalk full of riffs. Here's a breakdown of the solo.
- Die Young Intro Solo (now used as the intro to the song, which here he actually plays after the 2 min snippet of Die Young, as it was never played in full during the tour)
- His famous 'Jazz' solo
- Riffs from "Warning"
- That riff you sometimes hear in the Sabbra Cadabra (reprise) when it was played in the 70s.
- The riff to "Cross of Thorns" (which wasn't made until a song until the next album)
- The Sabbath Bloody Sabbath riff
- Some other interesting riffs (one sounds like "Brighton Rock")
- and finally "Orchid"
after this he went into the intro to 'Black Sabbath', but this isn't on here due to time limit.
I have a couple Sabbath related interviews to post as well as a clip with Bill Ward hearing "WICD" for the first time, and an brief interview with him. These should be coming sometime this week or next.
Enjoy!

Tony Iommi took his first guitar lesson when he was 5. When the teacher saw him, he said : “I can’t believe it ! You are Tony Iommi !”. Tony showed him how to play 'N.I.B.'.
🎸👍🥳🔥💯👋😁😁😁😂😂😂
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ❤️ COMMENT!!!!
The ultimate metal guitarist hands down
How can anyone hate this tone? It's unmistakably Tony Iommi. He has the tone that, even if you can't see who is playing, and even if you only caught a few seconds of playing time, you could easily recognize it as Iommi. His tone is every bit as important to his playing as the notes he produces. Great post!
Tony Iommi, Master Of -Speed Of Light Trills.
Dave Murray is the God of lightning fast trills.
Listen to the song "You Wont Change Me " one of many solos- Tony is playing so fast doing Hammer On's sliding from the E String To B string without lifting his finger off the fretboard- speed of light one of many quick "Hammer on's thanks to the leather grip strip on his finger protector. I was in the studio when I asked him to lay down his speed of light Trills on that track & he did it. The 2nd Solo is killer.
Dave Murray is a repetitive bore & the God of nothing.
@@mickblack2800 lol. Try doing trills like him. You fingers will fall off. Iommi is not even close.
I met Tony at NAMM 97, had many chats with him. A really great and unassuming bloke. A worthy rock God.
There can be no doubt King Tony can do it all, I can honestly say his accident was a blessing in disguise. I can't imagine had his talent been wasted in Jethrol Tull. Although also a great band in there own right, im sure Tony's talent would have been lost and never explored had he remained with Tull.
This is like listening to a Blackmore solo. There are so many styles presented here.
"The Science of Orgasms" is showing up in the margin to the right. How appropriate.
I'm not much of a gearhead, but Iommi has used a tycobrahe wah pedal since the mid to late 70s. I think he said once in a magazine article that the guy who made them didn't make many and went out of business or died or something. Iommi says he has like 8 of them, in case one goes to shit. It's one of the few effects he uses.
if it wasant for him , there would be no heavy metal, he started with blues and jazz,then he disided to play hard and loud with full treble and full volume ,that is when metal was born. thank you tonyit was all you. sabbath forever!
pentatonic and tritones with jazzy licks too
Duuuuuude, Iommi looked me in the eye and gave me the horns! I was so stoked! One of the best guitarists EVER.
Mr.Tony Iommi Rules.......Period!!
The Jazz stuff he throws in is f'n great!
I WAS THERE!!!!! My first sabbath concert!
It was Tony Iommi‘s solo that turned me on to jazz! It was back in the 80s it may have been a different concert but he was playing through the same Riffs that’s on this recording. I was learning to play guitar and I was highly influenced by who I was listening to at the time.
awesome i also believe his solo on the live evil album to be one of the greatest ever
Blacksabfan, thank you for this awesomeness! And for all Sabbath/Iommi stuff you posted. This solo is my favourite too. Tony masters metal, hard-rock, blues, jazz, anything. One of those rare moments he shows his potentiality.
master of the riffs......
Our Django.
I love how he merged that riff from warning into orchid.
Everything is here in this in 10.37 minutes...Enjoy your life in these 10 minutes
there is no Sabbath without Iommi period! love Dio, Martin, Ozzy, even Gillan did ok, but is that unmistakable sound of Tone's riffs that gets the soul going ... fuck under rated, he is it!, to those of us who are lucky to listen to this ... good job man. ;)~
3:38 that is just pure class guitaring there.
The reason why I picked up the guitar
Black Sabbath and Tony Iommi for ever.
I think that Tony is very underrated on the solo side!! One of his favorite guitar players and influences is the great Joe Pass!!
its amazing how iommi goes from the nastiest heavy sabbath riffs and ends with the most beautiful.
I would like to see "animusic" illustrate this whole thing! Iommi is an insane (in a good way said) guitar player. All of his music influence from jazz, blues etc. converted into the most scary deep dark heavy metal sound, who marked for life many musicians to come, and turn them into different kinds of metal genres. There wouldn't be no death metal if that press took his whole hand!! Just thanks for this video. RESPECT to Tony Iommi
He's a true metal master & I love him now as I did over 30 years ago still sends shivers down my spine
God lives in the earth, and he plays two roles, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler
saw him 1st time in 1973!this is the master&innovater of the metal shredding as we love!!tony iommi forever!!!!
This is absolutely amazing! A lot of different eras I've never heard together in this solo, and a wah pedal at like 7:50! I dont recall ever hearing Tony use a wah, pretty amazing shit here, blacksabfan.
Tony Iommi, the godfather of true metal..
I really like his solo from the 1978 Hammersmith live version of 'Snowblind'.
Vintage Iommi. The jazzy part that he often does live is performed a lot better with Bass and drum accompaniment like in Live at Last, but he does a pretty good job here, too, I'd say.
8 people are tone deaf
Tony is a old school in that he still knows how to play chords but also can throw in the vicious lead! Not many new bands can still say they have a bass, drum, vocal and guitar. As far as new stuff I like Rival Sons because they still keep that intact! Beautiful light and shade if I might quote Jimmy Page!
his pull offs and hammer ons are monstrous too
@lawnshark19 Very Gilmour in parts. Iommi and Gilmour, two of the only guitarists ever to totally create a new music.
For everybody wondering, Tony uses a wah called a Tycobrahe( if thats how you spell it) its really old, made in late 60's/early 70's.
What makes Iommi stand out from many other guitarists is that he sounds just as good live as he does on the records.
That press which cut tony's finger needs a big giant gold statue.. thanks for this deep dark bold sound
Iommi e Blackmore con il loro tocco stanno sopra a tutti
bambino Sicilliani
One of TONY's best (if not THE BEST!) solos ever...and I was there!
Iommi's so underrated man he rocks!
so dark but so sweet!!!
I NEED TABSS !!!!!!!!!!
The keyboard chord changes remind me of Pink Floyd's Shine on you crazy diamond. Cool stuff! Tony is the man!
He summons up the ghost of django at about 3.30...i learnt guitar listening to iommi...love that guy....
9:00 very crazzy
God , If I can't have guitar skills like him, at least give me his mustache
reminds me of classical music...
peace of art!!!!!!!!
master of the solo
Incredible solo tony iommi is my favorite guitarist
Long Live Jimi and Tony.
Beautiful sound to my ears
The reason why I picked up a guitar!
@stevieVantanna Not really. He is rarely mentioned among the best and that's a mistake imo. He's atleast as good as Page :) atleast
Fucking goosebumps!
An angel may as well be singing to your soul when you listen to this
fricken amazing. He did a sick solo for heaven and hell in connecticut.
this is awesome, is it on a live album?
@xXxKarlaConverseXxXx Omg are you kidding me? There is no Hetfield without Tony
Hi, my faviourate iommi solo to!
Do you know where i can getthe shimmering sound from?
Withough tony's guitar.
U realy want it for live gigs to solo over.
Would there be any way to cut his guitaring out on te track?
Id pay you for it! Thanks
My favorite guitar player🎸❤️🔥💥🪄🎶🚀🎸
So many great songs is NO coincidence! 💥✨🌟⭐
AWESOME but I still prefer the solos he did during the1975 & 76 tours the best.
Um dos maiores guitarristas da histórias do Rock.
Black Sabbath é insuperável!!!!
Do I hear cross of thorns in there? around 6:11?
lol damn, nobody can duplicate Iommi
The starting of it is from "Giant Steps" by John Coltrane
yea, he cut off his ring and middle finger on the last day as a sheet metal factory on the sheet metal shear, then he melted doun a plastic bottle,and atached felt pads to them to grip the strings.
@sabbath7081 thank you for posting this you're absolutetly true and a black sabbath fan all the best mate rock on!
This is why I don't listen to rap hardly if ever anymore
Simply incredible
@TheMrTC Mind=blown.
yea, this is fruckin great, you can't get this shit anywhere
Any chance anyone can identify the scales he uses? Tuning?
He's not playing any guitar scale, he's playing the guitar. In no way will knowing which scales he's alternating between help you; as all scales overlap each other..
I think this is just one of those solos you do in your room at 2am when you're bored, and everything clicks. brain shuts off and the fingers express all the emotion they need. I'm sure he has some sort of structure, but this kind of solo you'll never play by knowing what key or scale he's in, it's all in the heart and in the hands mann.
or maybe he's just playing e minor blues idk im stoned
Amazing. Amazing. Wow.
he kept the fake tips in a small box with his gituar picks and stuff.
yes
From all the clips heard from the 1992 Dehumanizer Tour, this Guitar Solo was Tony's best and longest! The JAM portion, which was performed at several shows, was one the best parts! This Boston, MA show, from the Orpheum Theatre, was one of the best shows captured from WBCN FM Broadcast! Cool bootlegs made of this show! The Definitive Boston 1992 (4 CD set ) was the best sounding!
I’d rather listen to this than a Randy Rhoads solo.
Geoff Nicholls.
And to Justdave1969: What is that ambient noise at the beginning then before he even starts soloing? Or what is that noise that is doubling Tony's guitar over the "Cross of Thorns" riff in the solo, or the noise doubling the SBS riff? I'll be damned if it's not a keyboard...
What is the name of the effect at 07:43? PLS
That is a wah wah pedal! It sounds like he's modified it though so it has a more dynamic range. This is similar to what Hendrix did.
Tks
Probly a flanger too
yea, I was very young, almost too young for most folks, but I was astute to music since birth, as back far as my memory goes, I used to rock on the couch or any device to CCR or thee equivalent, and when I was that young and heard Black Sabbath and Bachman Turner Overdrive, I lost my mind.
2:05 lmlml
I may be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure he uses a Wah in Electric Funeral, and I'm not sure about the recorded one (and I'm to lazy to look), but he uses a Wah in the Solo for Dirty Women on the Never Say Die Tour in 1978..
There is one more, but I can't think of it right now..
blacksabfan, do you have any input on this?
@alphabetgreen1996, man you say there's no musicality in these compositions? I love listening to Pink Floyd, but if you say there's no musicality in Iommi's compositions... no comment dude.
speaken of, gotta see what today brings towards BTO's thangs''
in all actuality, i think he's my favorite, ever since I ever heard him in 1975
A road map for future axemen for sure.
@CallMeTheHunter "underatted" BS
Everybody that is a rocker or a metal head knows he is a "god"
I'll be honest...as a soloist....he isn't interesting at all....once in a while maybe.
It's not just a technique thing - I think Jimmy Page's Solos are still awesome.
anyways, thanks a million for them sounds man, that is pure gold'''''''''''
Isteni Balkezes . király
Ja! Példaképem
A MASTERPIECE !!!!!!
