What makes Sabbath special isn’t just Tony. It’s every instrument being represented equally. Geezer and Bill were just as important as Iommi.

As much as heroes like Chuck Schuldiner, Marty Friedman, Jerry Cantrell, Dime, and others have had an Impact on me, I can never deny how Tony was the guy that first led me to the instrument. World really just wouldn’t be the same without him.

I always found it weird that for being the FIRST true heavy band, all these years later it's still way heavier in actual feel than alot of modern metal, and also still just as original sounding as ever. Also the band's self titled song is still unbelievable to this day for being so heavy and evil sounding.

It just proves the awesomeness and influence Black Sabbath Layed

Always glad to see when someone plays something other than Paranoid, because there's no shortage of great riffs on Black Sabbath

Symptom of the Universe, Children of the Grave, Heaven and Hell, Sign of the Southern Cross, Falling of the Edge of the World, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Children of the Sea. I could go on and on and on. So many great riffs. He is such an incredible influence.

Tony Iommi is one of the most important guitarists ever imo

I'm a guitarist primarily, but Basically and NIB made me buy a bass. Then I realized how hard it is to play Geezers parts right so I ended up having to add even more practice to my regimen so I could learn bass properly. Still not as good as I am as a guitarist but I could switch hit.

Tony was sent from heaven to raise hell on earth.

Any video with Matt Pike playing gets my thumbs up

Best stage name ever. I always wondered how he came up with "Satchel" but I don't want to know as it might kill how hilariously rad I find that name. Guy rips. Bagel cutter: solid advice.

The whole sound of Black sabbath is incredible! So unique and timeless!

I am surprised no one mentioned children of the grave, one of the most dark and obscure tunes in music history along with black sabbath.

What made me pick up the bass, 22 years ago, was definitely Fairies Wear Boots. Such an amazing song.

Same here, at the same age 😂. I had my first guitar tuned down to C# for years because of that kind of songs. It happened also that a lot of bands i liked at the time played in that tuning: therion, disincarnate, my dying bride, slayer (diabolus in musica),white zombie, etc

Into the void ,symptom of the universe, paranoid , War pigs. So many great riffs from the metal master.

Shout out to Kenny for playing Lord of This World. The deepest cut in this video. Phil not far behind with Warning. Lizzy with heaven and hell too. Nice.

My granddaughter is named Iommi Skye ----, after Toni Iommi. She is 7 years old. Last weekend she came to visit, and we went out to my shop to work on some Halloween decorations. She went over to my satellite radio and tuned into Ozzy's boneyard. Ya gotta love her!

Iommi and Geezer invented Heavy Metal. Symptom of the Universe was so simple that it's genius. People talk about how simple it is but really, coming up with stuff that incredibly heavy and that hooky and catchy, there's nothing simple about it.

That was great! Thanks, Loudwire.

Man I love this video...cheers 🤘

The first song I learned on guitar was Paranoid. It was on this VHS tape that I got from the only music shop in town.

Tony Iommi is and was for all time in music one of the very few a world changer's with his sound ,his riffs and his ability .If there was no Tony there would be no Sabbath . He was to be in all aspects meant to be who he was like EVH, J.Hendrix's and a few other's not to mention. When Sabbath came out I was 15 years of age a have been playing guitar for 6 years and Tony pushed me at that time like others to a new level yes Sabbath was in my blood like others. I am now 69 year of age and still play Iommi riffs so I can say it will all ways be part of me and I am sure there are so many more out there . Yes it's Good stuff to live and look back on. If anyone from Tony's camp see's this tell him to check out on You Tube Cooking with Frankie Meatball BLACK SABBATH PIZZA STORY ,that 's my story, Tony know's me, I play Guitar on the show with my story . I think Tony will like it and have a good laugh or two.

After more than 50 years, Lord of This World is still the heaviest song/riff ever.

Lizzy live is the most profound gig experience i had. Her energy is indescribable x

New sub here. Great Sabbath stuff. Love the t-shirt too, so old school. As a teen i went to an indoor concert in 76, i saw Blue Oyster Cult, Rush, & Foghat in 1 show. Slow Ride & Working Man about blew the roof off the place, maybe thats where all the smoke was coming from🤘

kenny hickey got some serious friggin' great tone man!

0:02 How is it possible to simulate Iommi's tone so perfect? Why isn't everyone talking about that

Satchel with the fun facts 😆

I think it's more than justified to let Matt Pike start with Into the Void. :D

My first song learning was Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. A killer riff.

Tony iommi. Legendary guitarist. (He’s left handed too, that’s cool too as well).

People give these popular songs their credit for bringing that metal sound and intention to the masses, but if you really dig into that discography you’ll hear that Black Sabbath really did all of the metal guitar stuff first.

I love love love Satchel 😻

Lord of this world! very heavy riffing!!

Behind the wall of sleep was one of my favourite songs to learn on bass when i first started

You need to make a playlist of these.

Metal community is so awesome ❤

Satchel talking about bagel cutters is hilarious

It's thanks to Black Sabbath Ozzy, Bill, Geezer, Tony, That we have heavy and every other kind of metal, And so many great bands that were inspired my Black Sabbath.

black sabbath was also the blueprint for learning guitar amoongst the youth

We also can’t leave out the riffs from Supernaut, Cornucopia, Under The Sun, and Tomorrow’s Dream from Volume 4!

It was in a factory actually, satchel

Choose any song from the first four albums and you’ll notice just how influential Tommy’s riffs still are.

Guys, Iommi plays Paranoid on 12th fret. Sound bigger and you can strum the higher notes of Em chord at the end of the riff as he does.

Play those first three notes of Paranoid riff with up stroke picking. Sounds much better. 👍

Love Metal/Rock ❤️‼️👍🏼🤘👍🏼

Symptom of the Universe has a massive riff

Thing about Tony's riffs is that they're relatively simple, so they can be copied by any kid just learning to play, yet they sound great. With countless kids copping Iommi riffs over the years, heavy metal progressed from a novelty offshoot of the blues to a full-blown movement, and here we are!

Mr riffmaster Iommi loves the song Warriors by Savatage.What a huge honor for Criss Oliva

This was rad🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

Black Sabbath sound is right only when Tony and Gezzer play together.

I think saying sabbath riffs that were the blueprint for metal implies the riffs weren't metal, which they absolutely were and still are!

Into the Void! 🤘

this clip was a slideshow of the thens of thousands of songs ive heard O.O

Satchel just being Satchel.

They should make a video with 100 player Collab together

Black Sabbath was the second band whose song I learned on the guitar. The first being Metallica. And it was in interviews and articles from Metallica that I became aware of sabbath and consequently all that awesomeness that is the 70’s rock scene. Mostly colors. Deep purple blue oyster cult rainbow Pink Floyd. So I didn’t start with sabbath they have emerged as my favorite band over the years. Iommi is the riff lord of this world.

11:11 - wow, he must be a real Ozzy fan, like what the hell is he saying? 😅

I can't remember what the first Black Sabbath song I learned was, maybe Iron Man. My favorites to play are Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, Sweet Leaf, Hole in the Sky, Black Sabbath, Snowblind, After Forever, actually all of them are a blast to play.

Hey Loudwire! When the heck are y’all gonna get Al Cisneros on here talking about sleep and the history?????? We want Al!!!!!

No question the two earliest were Tony Iommi and Richie Blackmore. Then came Glen Tipton and then Michael Schenker right on his heels. Iommi and Blackmore bulldozed everything out of the way and dug the foundation, Schenker and to a lesser extent Tipton, poured the concrete and Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads built the house for what became 80's metal.

🤘

It's all 7hanks to the The “devil’s chord" you hear in the seft-title track. The “diabolus in musica” - “the devil in music,” as it was known for centuries in the original Latin - is a tense-sounding combination of notes that creates a foreboding atmosphere. With Black Sabbath & Paranoid along with Led Zeppelin future Metal bands would follow one of their paths and/or both.

Tony should be on the thumbnail.

"Get a bagel cutter kids" ... It was no bagel accident!

Iommi is the heavyweight champ. No one is close

Into the Void is badass.

Follow the tears has deadly riffs and whole album

Regardless the tunning these guys are playing, all riffs sound heavy af

Are some of them a little bit nervous (shaking hands)?

Heavy "Black Label" vibes on the first riff played by Matt Pike.

"Cutting a bagel" 🤣

The first guy in the black tank top, playing the sunburst Les Paul, the riff he’s playing is DEFINITELY the Inspector Gadget theme song. There’s no doubt about it!

Heaven an Hell. That'd be my pick right there!

I think the main riff against the lighter moments in "Sabbath bloody Sabbath" is formula perfected. If you cant feel that one you cant grasp heavy metal. The song "black sabbath" is truly an evil sounding little diddy, im sure back when it was released it had to have scared the b'jesus out of everyone wether or not they were honest enough to admit it.

Anyone know the song Kenny Hickey is playing?
