When I was a kid in the late 70's early 80's, my parents would take us to the local K-Mart and each one of us would get to buy something. I always got an album. Back then they were $5 to $10 depending and that was my "allowance" for mowing and all the chores. I snuck in the Black Sabbath album Black Sabbath right at the checkout when my mom wasn't looking. She never would have permitted it. I ended up with it! I had to hide it in a Grand Funk Railroad sleeve and listen to it when she wasn't home (my dad didn't care) One night I was listening to it while laying it bed. I had the speakers on either side of my pillow a few inches from each ear. That shit was genuinely scary. I can remember there was a thunder storm and a tree branch was hitting my window! I thought evil forces had arrived and they were coming for me. Silly, but not back then. Now, I play it on my guitar all the time. Iommi is a badass. One of my top five all time.

I love Iommi's vibrato, it's just purely me(n)tal and aggressive. It epitomises everything black Sabbath is for me. No shock rock bullshit. Just pure unbridled, fear inducing, audial madness. That is what turned rock to metal. Unlike some of those that came after him he didn't rely on masks, makeup or some façade of Satan worship, he relied on his skill.

on the other hand, Sabbath definitely had a facade of Satan worship. Their s/t had a huge inverted cross as its gatefold sleeve artwork and Sabbath's logo usually included a devil. Needless to talk about SBS's cover art. Plus Geezer and Tony certainly were into the occult - not simply as a joke, although they've always denied they were satanists. In Tony's own words : "We were very interested in the satanic side of stuff - certainly Geezer and myself. We were interested in the occult just out of curiosity... We wondered what would happen if we did certain things, just like we wondered about life after death. We got into all sorts of stuff. Maybe it was the drugs in those days - I don’t know! And we’re still using that imagery with Heaven & Hell."

All jokes aside, Black Sabbath has spawned, so many copycats and sub genres definitely one of the most original sounds I can think of

Tony is the reason I play guitar today. And, I share a common trait with Tony: I lost my thumb on a lathe on my right hand. They reattached it, but I have no feeling and it is gone past the last knuckle. Try holding a pick with no thumb. Not easy to do. I made my own prosthesis but eventually found this thing called a Pikmax. It is a plastic holder that has a pick attached. Fits in the palm of our hand and keeps the pick perfectly placed so my thumb just kind of rest on it, it is not responsible for any holding pressure. Thank God they invented that thing. It would be a great product for you to demo, even if you're not handicapped, it works really well.

This is one of the best tuition videos I've seen. I've been playing for over 40 years (my first heroes were Blackmore and Iommi, and I saw Sabbath 45 years ago!) but I still learnt something from it. That may be a reflection on my lack of ability rather than your teaching skills, but I really enjoyed every moment of it! I particularly like the way you don't talk down to your audience and make us feel like we're all on the same musical journey (even if mine has been at a snail's pace...) I'll definitely be checking out your other videos - thanks!

Slight correction on the finger tip story. On the day he was due to leave his job and turn proffesional musician Tony was assigned to a machine he was not trained on and as mentioned cut off his finger tips. Doctors told him he would never play guitar again. Because back then there was a lack of prosthetics Tony took an empty washing up bottle and a soldering iron, effectively making himself new finger tips.

At 3:45 I was just about type "there isn't enough space in today's music & guitar playing!" And then he says as much. It really is important, you have to leave some space for the brain. Otherwise, it is just overwhelming and not musical. David Gilmour is probably my favourite player when it comes to leaving just the right amount of space between the notes (as Beethoven is reported to have said, "music is the space between the notes") but he's not the only one.

His playing style is the go to for beginner and intermediate players to understand rhythmic concepts and playing with the "colors" of the fretboard. I love this video man.

The index/pointer is visable but the other finger are not due to camera angle. And like i said this is a GREAT video for techniques.Probably the best video for Tony techniques on you tube. You are a bad ass.Thank you for the video.

The bit about vibrato was really good. Toni would shake the damn things to ring out vibrato.

Tony actually used fairy liquid washing up liquid lids on top of his fingers.Thats why his solo's lasted twice as long as other solo's.(only some people will get this)

I've always loved his "up high on the 6th string" method. To me, that's the biggest factor in his tone. So thick. Unfortunately, it kind of makes me obsess over intonation to the point where i check it every time I tune. Great video!

Kudos dude! You are an excellent player, covering the tips and tricks of another excellent player, Tony Iommi! I had no idea there was that much to his playing, but - obviously - not everyone plays it the way he does, that's why he's the master of metal!

Will do. Thanks a lot. I just saw your video about the time you almost gave up and that motivated me to pick up my guitar and give the pentatonic scale another go. Thank you so much for putting up these videos and helping all the struggling guitarist out there.

I play the uke and I'm trying to figure out if enough of what you teach will apply to a uke to make it worth the monthly fee. What do you get with the website that isn't already available on KZbin? There must be differences but I can't tell from the description.

The website has everything, YT just has sample videos. The Art of Guitar is all my guitar lessons taught in order from beginning on and the EPA's and CS's are placed in the correct places to ensure you're learning properly. Probably not for uke tho. :(

Thanks! I've been searching the tube for hours trying to find someone showing that final lick with the slide and trill. I'd seen footage of Iommi and knew he was sliding but with his messed-up fingers and the speed at which he does it, I couldn't tell for sure what he was doing.
