Tony Iommi is such a legend. He is second to none.
And a legendary prankster!
@@onerandombruh As a good Aquarius.
@@onerandombruh I wonder if he played pranks on Bryan May.
Had to check if he was still alive when this popped in my feed
Exactly!
Facts
Same!
Same
Same holy shit I got scared.
i havent watched a loudwire video in a while. when this popped up in my feed i was like IS TONY OK?
I do the same. Sometimes I see these and I have to rush to google to make sure they’re good.
Why?
He is Iron Man.
Epic and talented gentleman, if it wasnt for him we wouldnt have that fuzzy doomy beautiful tone
Don't forget he's also a master of the prank. Before Johnny Knoxville made it in Jackass, we had Tony Iommi.
That time he invented metal was pretty unforgettable
Gosh Loudwire, don’t scare us like that!
Hey Tommy, loved your playing since 68. I was still in high school when your first Sabbath album came out. I was like firing a gun in church, which woke the establishment up.
I was fighting a war in the early 70's and your music was a big part of the sound track of those times. With your riffs and lead breaks heading the enjoyment.
A most enervating moment was watching you and Ozzy doing Paranoid at Buckingham palace, you guys had come full circle to the full backing of popular culture and establishment approval, not really sure how I feel about that ;-) .
58 years of pleasure and some of your music is on every playlist in my life, including the 15 hours of USB music in my cars.
I was in Nigeria on the 50th anniversary of Paranoid and my Ops Manager came to tell me that the escalator had stopped working overnight. I got them to open up the working parts and there it was, a decapitated giant fruit bat, which had roosted there, jamming up the works.
How appropriate.
I survived the wars and have made a good life for myself. Sending love and light and more power to your magic fingers and wishes for nothing but joy for you mate.
Sahle Gahle....that's Zulu for "stay safe"
Absolute legend, it’s great to see him alive and well. 🎸🤘
I’m proud to have gotten to see Sabbath at the ‘99 reunion. It was absolutely epic!
Saw them in Massachusetts that year, amazing show by the original 4!
I am very grateful to Tony, because through his unfortunate story of his fingers, where he did not give up but rather continued to play the guitar with his invention, I too have a similar story, I have a problem with the phalanx of the index finger of my left hand Thanks to a protection placed on my finger I can still play, Congratulations Tony and all the other members of Black Sabbath you are wonderful!
Doesn`t Bryan May have a Phd in Astrophysics? And there he is with Tony Iommi, who worked in the sheet metal factory. That must have been a meeting of minds.
Tony got an honorary doctorate some years back. I forgot where he got it (Coventry, maybe?). I think his was for music.
They're best of friends as well!
They are best friends.
@@armlovesmetal1036 Oh, I didn`t know that. Tony would probably loosen Bryan May up a bit...always seems a bit uptight that guy. I certainly wasn`t trying to say Iommi is uneducated...he`s a very clever guy...as long as it`s about guitars.
Is the interviewer @3:50 secretly a member of Coven? Like RELAX 😂
I`ve heard the Coven story...it`s just Americans trying to claim they invented Heavy Metal. Pathetic.
No kidding. I felt bad for Tony there, she was frankly being a bitch about it.
That girl was an early sign of pretentious assholes who think they invented the wheel.
Martha Quinn was the gal interviewing him . And Iommi really knew about them. Lol.
@@Mike-aka747 bands have the same ideas, borrow from each other, and outright steal. She acts like she caught him or something lol. Nobody cares. Sabbath 🤘🏾🤘🏾
Damn, for a moment I thought he was gone... FOR REAL!!!
Tony is one of the best guitarist's out there period!
This is absolute GOLD!
I love Tony Iommi man🤘🏻, no heavy metal without him
Rock legend forever! 🩷
REALLY enjoyed that. Thanks.
Entire career is unforgettable
If it wasn't for Tony Iommi, I wouldn't have picked up guutar, and I probably wouldn't be alive 🤘
It's a crime that he (and all of Sabbath, really) hasn't been knighted
When James Hetfield was asked how he came up with the Inamorata riff from 72 Seasons he said something like "Idk I was channeling Toni Iommi or something like that". Everyone bows to the godfather of heavy metal🤘🤘🤘
0:17 Tony's noodling "Apache" by The Shadows. 😁👍
Ya, so cool
Thanks to this 🐐 for being arguably the most important part in the creation of metal 🥹
In the beginning, Tony and Brian are playing "Apache" by The Shadows.
Great man. Ultimate moment? The first three notes of the song Black Sabbath.
I swear wherever Brian goes Tony goes
Well at least he wasn’t bitter about Ozzy getting even bigger and more popular after he sacked him…
Thank You
The man who started the first Heavy metal band Black Sabbath 1968 mm
Don't scare us like that!!! I was about to skip work for Lord Iommi
With all the drama that's gone on between them, I always love seeing them having fun together
Sabbath was HIS band. Period. Yes, Really.
The Guy freaking MADE his fingers ! What an inspiration ! Thank you Tony !
That Coven album is absolutely fucking BANGING!!! IOMMI🤘🤘
The Godfather of metal riff
They should have included Tony and Brian May playing at the Freddy Mercury Tribute Concert instead of that other clip. They played the Heaven and Hell riff together.
Just a class act.
The riff master
This guy chopped his fingers and then went ahead and invented metal.
I was fortunate enough to see play in Heaven and Hell in 2007. It was not only the first and last time I saw them, but it was the first and last time I saw Tony use that red Gibson custom shop SG. That thing was powerful on Shadow of The Wind. A light reflected off the neck of that guitar and got me directly in the eye (I wasn't gonna complain).
Tony is my absolute favorite guitarist of all time. I tried to learn how to play guitar because of him (left-handed, too), but I can't play to save my life.
Tony always seems to get overlooked when it comes to guitar players. It's always Hendrix and Page this, Clapton and Rhodes that. Its really a shame.
Needed this thank u
3:50 - That's amazing!!!
Tony est une légende. 🎸🤘👍
Black Sabbath's 80s/90s stuff with Tony Martin is underrated.
No it's not.
@@ChrisShortyAllenyes it is. It’s far better than the crap they released with Ozzy
No, it's not. I second ChrisShortyAllen. Nice albums, all five, but only Sabbath's third best.
@@AlexanderArsov lol better than the Ozzy crap
Legend
I wonder if Lita Ford can still feel the sting of the back of his hand?
🎸
The best!
Best Guitarist of the Best Band
The Pontiff of Heavy Metal 🤘🏻
How have you included a 2024 Christmas message?? Has there been a time slip I’m not aware of?
1 thru 22: Being the God Of All Things Metal
So it's Iommis mother started the whole heavy metal thing!
!IOMMIC LIFE!
GUITAR GOD. TONY IOMMI. . CRANK IT UP LOUD. HORNS UP. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
the king of doom/metal. and not a man to be trifled with in his younger days.
God bless Tony Iommi
My dad looked like Tony Iommi, put them side by side at the same age and they could be mistaken for brothers, not quite twins but close, well, at least the facial features, my dad wore glasses, was a bit taller, 187 cm/6'2" and built like Bruce Lee.
GO GO GODZILLA 🐲
wait, Coven? Isn't that the band with the song that goes "... kill all your neighbors... "?
Left out Tony's finger tips. Wtf.
Tony is one of my favorite guitarists ever and a major influence on me and my bands however, it's not Ukraine and russia fighting it's russians invading Ukraine, Ukrainian never wanted to fight, while russians want to destroy, invade and steal. That's a big difference, Ukrainians are not killing someone else's kids and not stealing from eldery peopel and not destroying hospitals. It's said that stuff like that still has to be explained.
🤘❤️🔥
Why do people get his wrong all the time?
Coven's Witchcraft and Sabbath's debut albums were release only about 8 months apart from each other. That Witchcraft happened to have came first is irrelevant, as I doubt the bands knew about each other. "Black Sabbath" came from the 1963 Boris Karloff movie. It's realistic to say they both got it from that.
The REAL issue is whether or not they threw up the horns before Dio did as show on the back of the Witchcraft album. 🤘
Coven??? Goddamn
Coven sucked. Lol noting more than Jefferson Airplaine imitators.

I don’t consider Queen rock n roll. They are Pop. As Pop as it gets. Was never a fan.
On early albums they were described a `Led Zeppelin meets Bowie` and could definitely rock out. I think Bryan May solo after Queen as a band became more `pop-rock` (I wouldn`t call them `pop`) did harder rock, that`s his thing.
@@youreatoilet Maybe not a metal band, but it`s hard to think of US `hair metal` without British glam rock...which of course included Queen. And in what I assume people mean their `pop` period they came up with a riff to `One Vision` which is as rocking as you can get! The softer end of US metal wishes they could riff up like Bryan May and Queen.
