This is a great way to put it. I remember for a long time thinking that Eddie Van Halen was impressive but cliche, and I only realized when he died that the reason his sound seemed cliche to me is that the next 10 years of electric guitar was defined by people trying, and failing, to sound like him, and I just wasn't alive to have known that he really came first. Tony is much the same, a whole genre of guitarists trying to come up with riffs this straightforward and great for decades to come.

None of his riffs sound cliche to me. When I listen to songs like Eletric Funeral and how heavy it is, I’ve looked over at my wife and said “Isn’t it amazing how heavy this is for something written in the late 60s, early 70s? It sounds so heavy and modern.” No one has come close to sounding like a Iommi riff imo. Not even the slow sludge of New Orleans

Paranoid is a legitimate and literal "filler". Over time, "filler" became a derogatory term for a song people didn't like, implying "oh, I don't like this song, they must have wrote it to fill out the album". Only songs written to fill an album are fillers. Paranoid is one and so another legendary heavy metal smash hit, You've Got Another Thing Coming by Judas Priest.

The dark Black Sabbath sound was born because Tommy had to downtune his guitar due to the accident. However, at that times, they didn't labeled themselves as an "heavy metal" band, they defined their sound as an heavy dark blues. The "heavy metal" term was created in the 1982 by a Kerrang journalist

Tony Iommi or James Hetfield perhaps deserve to be known as the greatest riff-makers of all time. But Brian is amazing. He too came up with some killer, immortal riffs, and as far as I'm concerned, the smoothest, most delicious lead work I've ever heard. The best thing about May's solos, I feel, is that he was never, that I've ever heard, at any point trying to show off, noodling or as I have called it at times, "musical masturbation". His solos always seems to fit the song, it wasn't just him taking time out to show how good he was, like most guitar solos (especially in metal) are. His solos were always an extension of the song, and felt like they were helping tell the song's story.

They blew all the fuses on the first few chords - the lights all went out and someone was sent to fix it. That happened twice, so they came back the third time and played a different number. People today may hear this and think, oh its just metal, but it was brand new when we heard it. No one had ever heard anything like it.

I discovered Paranoid through my best friend's older brother, who picked it up the year it came out. I was twelve, and that album got A LOT of play in their basement. I remember he also had In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. Those were the days...

Amazing these 2 playing together

Damm Bryan May still have that golden touch

"It's a good riff !!" yes, it's so good that it's more than enough for me❤

That's not sacrilege, that's one of the most bloody brilliant free jams by 2 of the most iconic rock guitarists of their time!

I love all Queen, but those first 3 albums had riffs that would've been right at home on a Sabbath album.

2:27 - So great to see that as amazing and technical a player Brian May is, he goes straight in to pentatonic jamming, just like the rest of us! 👽🤘

dudes will see this and just think " hell yeah". Legends, absolute legends!

Need a album by these 2 together.

That solo Brian added…awesome.

Brian May's signature lead style over that classic riff just put a huge smile on my face. Highly influential legends, both of them.

Your profile pic almost got me ngl

Every great guitarist... When you watch thier fingers dance on the fret-board like it is so, so easy... Amazing.

I can’t put into words how happy it made me, to watch these two longtime friends just jamming and laughing together. Brian May soloing over Paranoid; how rad!!!!

It's so cool how each guitarist played something that sounded like their respective bands yet they combined so fantastically

Two magicians with there magic wands..Love them both

this is just on youtube for us to enjoy for free. Insane times we live it. Two absolute MASTERS just jamming away. Amazing

How good is to see friendship like that. LEGENDS both of them.

Guitar heaven right there. I'm so happy right now, I could scream.

Nah, Guitar heaven was a Santana album, not Brian's

will never get to experience this again. bravo.

Both of these gentlemen men are legends and that riff also legit and legendary ❤🤘🔉🔉🔊🔉🔉🔊🔉🔊🎸🎸☠️🤘🔉🔉🔊🔉🔊💯✅🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Hard to believe I was in High School when Paranoid came out and over 50 years later it still kicks ass alongside any rock tune out today.

i must ask...how was it? to hear a song like Paranoid on those times, how people reacted?

@@saykdos well from what I remember it was definitely a lot different than what most radio stations were playing at the time. We were definitely entering a new era for rock music back in the early 70s. So many famous bands got their start back then it was a wonderful time hearing them when they were current and not 45-50 years later as classic.

I love how respectful is Bryan while joining the riff with Tony.

Brian*

Paranoid - one of the finest songs ever

Two of the greatest legends of rock from two of my favourite bands growing up.

What a TREAT to see two absolute musical legends jam.

If this was audio only, we would know it is Tony Iommi and Brian May. They have such a distinct sound, especially Brian's lead over the top of the riff is unique. This is what Paranoid would have sounded like if it were a Queen song!

I was thinking exactly the same thing. And was fascinated to see how well Brian's "Queen" style of solo overlaid the original riff

Two of my favorite guitarists!

ABSOLUTELY NO guitarist from the 90’s onwards can ever play as good as those from the 60’s or 70’s Brian May Jimmy Hendrix David Gilmour Mark Knopfler Hank Marvin Chet Atkins Slash George Harrison Jimmy Page Pete Townsend BB king Muddy Waters To name a few

That put a huge smile on my face. 🤗

It's OK Brian it's not sacrilege if your joining Tony, it's only sacrilege if it was someone else. All I can say is thank you for all of these years of your lives through music, Hands down the greatest music out there. I started listening to Black Sabbath and Queen when I was 8yrs old. Oct 1, 1980, was my first Black Sabbath concert in Chicago at the International Amphitheatre. I was 11yrs old. My first Queen concert was the month before that on Sep 19, 1980, at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois. I'll never forget them. Thank You

@@sugarnads funny snippet from Blackmore about Brian May “great guitar player and just one of the nicest men in the business… he’s a bit too tall … but he can’t help that “ Look up “Ritchie Blackmore about Queen and Brian May“ for the full thing.

Best jam ever.

No sacrilege there, just pure love.
