To those complaining that the interviewer was too rough on Tony, the show is called HARD TALK. He's pressing for answers that many of us would like to hear but would be far too polite to ask. It's his job. And Tony knows it, that's why he's being so polite and answering honestly. It's just the way this show seems to go. Very enjoyable interview overall. Glad he's doing fairly well, hope he keeps getting better.

This is spot on. HARD TALK is a long running BBC News channel series of interviews with major political and cultural figures, which has the specific brief of pushing to the boundaries of conversation. I've seen the HARD TALK interview with Duff McKagan, the Guns 'n' Roses bass player, on KZread, and the comments are along exactly the same lines as on this video. Too many people showing utmost deference to their favourite rock god, but no respect to the interviewer or the program format. And you're also spot on about how well Tony understands and handles the HARD TALK brief.

Obviously as a musician you put your heart and soul into and all the emotions you go through in life. Also Mr. Iommi seems to be a man of few words, doesn't really talk a lot

If you don't know what I'm referring to, you would need to watch all the interviews and talks with Oz, Bill, and Gzr and Original Sabbath docs. I'm not here to be the sabbath police. I'm just saying there are inconsistencies with things he said and what Ozz, Bill, Gzr and even Tony himself have said about a lot of the same stuff. What I wanted to say here was jokingly to GFX saying whoever introduced Tony to Django was so caring and encouraging to Tony and blessed him.. It was actually Tony's boss that moved him to the machine that he chopped his fingers off with, that told him about Django.. He must'v felt terrible...

Tony Iommi on BBC Hard Talk 2230pm 25.9.23 a lot of bands - known and terribly obscure types - bring that kindda act to the table: maintaining a bird's eye and critical view of the world. i can't see anything wrong with that, with suggesting those who are dishing out the peace accords whilst bombing the eff out of an alleged enemy shouldn't be looked at somewhat quizzically... etc..... i think they do deem such a stance as dealing in irony and satire. though, again, people do go too deeply into things and maybe they should have cottoned on to the band's style without having to have the A.B. C's of the situation spelt out to them. but ,as he says, some people want to hear it - whether it's bad news or ciphering what's on another's mind...

I'm in the digit deficient guitar players club too, i lost the tip of my ring finger in an accident when i was a kid. it is a serious hindrance to playing guitar, difficult but not impossible & i'm too stubborn to let a silly thing like a missing fingertip stop me. I'd love to know where Tony gets his tips from, i could be doing with one. I really hope Tony beats that awful Cancer, all the lads in Sabbath are gods to me. The best band to ever grace this earth.

trevor phillips, As far as I know Iommi never stole songs or riffs from other artists like Page has done. No doubt he was influenced by those blues players he heard, but the guy should get much more credit for his creative ability and he sure changed rock music big time. He is such a down to earth ordinary kind of guy, he does not seem like some of the far less talented artists who have egos the size of hot air balloons. Hope he rocks on for a long time yet.

When the interviewer brought up the quote of the NYTimes journalist, he should have added something like, "do you believe in that generalization?", or "is he being unfair?", otherwise it sounds like he's basically agreeing with the criticism and dismissing the genre that Iommi essentially founded. I think he was giving Iommi the opportunity to defend his legacy, but it came off really, really badly out of the interviewer's mouth.

To those complaining that the interviewer was too rough on Tony, the show is called HARD TALK. He's pressing for answers that many of us would like to hear but would be far too polite to ask. It's his job. And Tony knows it, that's why he's being so polite and answering honestly. It's just the way this show seems to go. Very enjoyable interview overall.

This is spot on. HARD TALK is a long running BBC News channel series of interviews with major political and cultural figures, which has the specific brief of pushing to the boundaries of conversation. I've seen the HARD TALK interview with Duff McKagan, the Guns 'n' Roses bass player, on KZread, and the comments are along exactly the same lines as on this video. Too many people showing utmost deference to their favourite rock god, but no respect to the interviewer or the program format. And you're also spot on about how well Tony understands and handles the HARD TALK brief.

Tony Iommi on BBC Hard Talk 2230pm 25.9.23 a lot of bands - known and terribly obscure types - bring that kindda act to the table: maintaining a bird's eye and critical view of the world. i can't see anything wrong with that, with suggesting those who are dishing out the peace accords whilst bombing the eff out of an alleged enemy shouldn't be looked at somewhat quizzically... etc..... i think they do deem such a stance as dealing in irony and satire. though, again, people do go too deeply into things and maybe they should have cottoned on to the band's style without having to have the A.B. C's of the situation spelt out to them. but ,as he says, some people want to hear it - whether it's bad news or ciphering what's on another's mind...

A true English gentleman.
An interesting interview but I find it incredible that Iommi should have to deal with such ridiculous questioning, stuff along the lines of Sabbath influencing suicide and other such behaviour, drugs and the like.... and in 2015!...or whenever this interview was. Can´t imagine this treatment for such a legend in any other genre.... guess the press will always hate Sabbath.

i love Toni Iommi so much it s so funny that he totally outside the world the rhiana and rap garbage seems like that garbage don t affect him He s so down to earth and simple great man
Je trouve certaines des questions indiscrètes et les réponses de Tony Iommi pleines de pragmatisme " on ne savait pas,mais on a appris et maintenant on sait comment procéder" La qualité première des plus grands est l'humilité. Merci Tony Iommi !
This was is/a great band,...with Ozzy or with DIO.. they were equally sensational... no one else could have sang for them...

Only saw Sabbath once: Heaven and Hell tour w/Dio in Wheeling, WV. Front row right, gloriously, painfully (general admission floor ticket) close -- to the deafening stacks, awa near enough to Iommi to see those famous tipless fingers of his work their hypnotic magic.
I'm in the digit deficient guitar players club too, i lost the tip of my ring finger in an accident when i was a kid. it is a serious hindrance to playing guitar, difficult but not impossible & i'm too stubborn to let a silly thing like a missing fingertip stop me. I'd love to know where Tony gets his tips from, i could be doing with one. I really hope Tony beats that awful Cancer, all the lads in Sabbath are gods to me. The best band to ever grace this earth.

trevor phillips, As far as I know Iommi never stole songs or riffs from other artists like Page has done. No doubt he was influenced by those blues players he heard, but the guy should get much more credit for his creative ability and he sure changed rock music big time. He is such a down to earth ordinary kind of guy, he does not seem like some of the far less talented artists who have egos the size of hot air balloons. Hope he rocks on for a long time yet.

My understanding is he now uses professionally crafted prosthetic fingertips (check with your health care plan), but originally and for the first famous years he made his own using leather he sewed himself.

Tony melted a detergent bottle into a little bowl and sanded it down then made a hole in it with soldering iron and glued a certain kind leather on it
I think Tony was on top for all the years. Just listen to the riffs from all those albums. Not a bad album at all. He was on the top from the beginning all the way through. All the lineups and everything in between. Not a bad riff. Tony, you remain my inspiration for living. Been through a lot of bad times with mental health issues and drinking. Your riffs and songs have saved me. I love you, man! Keep making music if you are well enough. Love you, Tony

And wow this interviewer is an asshole. Really an asshole. I know it's called Hard Talk but this guy was just an idiot
Im proud of you Tony your Awesome " you've Inspired " my cool - Riffs over the years in my own band " Necrosis Heavy Metal band or as u joke about it when people ask u is " Black Sabbath heavy metal when they ask u in interview say were more of " Heavy - Rockband lol 😃 you tickle me everytime thank you Tony for the laughs & Awesomeness Riffs God bless !!!
I think Sabbath had a driving force behind them which they weren’t aware of.
Really negative interview. I think Tony should've got up and walked out of there. But he's too kind and polite to do that.
Loving Black Sabbath since 1970 and reflecting on your thoughts regarding the lady that killed herself and Paranoid was playing. My thought; when we’re down, we listen to music we love as it’s a familiar friend.Music is my life and brings such joy ; is there a possibility that the lady had it playing because she loved it and wanted that to be her joy before she left the world and not the reason she chose to leave. Thank you for your work 🙏🏻🖤Stani
I am a big Zeppelin fan. But this man here wrote some of the finest music ever. One of the last songs on black sabbath. Warning. One of the finest songs ever written. Thank you Toni Gezzer Bill and Ozzy.
He should have got up and walked out.

When the interviewer brought up the quote of the NYTimes journalist, he should have added something like, "do you believe in that generalization?", or "is he being unfair?", otherwise it sounds like he's basically agreeing with the criticism and dismissing the genre that Iommi essentially founded. I think he was giving Iommi the opportunity to defend his legacy, but it came off really, really badly out of the interviewer's mouth.

The show is called Hardtalk and always tries to ask tough questions, it often has politicians on and can give them a real battering, by comparison I thought this was very sensitive and respectful. Tony would have known what show he was going on and he seemed very open and took everything in his stride.

We're not dealing with the Bee Gees here lol 😁
People always want to over-analyze things. The man simply enjoys creating heavy riffs/music; it's his art; end of discussion.
Masters Of Reality was the very first album I ever bought. I think I was about ten years old at the time. This was around 1973 or 74. My life has never been the same.
All the best to Tony....great, influential musician....
