That guy has lived a life and a half...if he could only remember it!
He so straight now a days and unfazed.
He recorded one album in 12 hours..hours!
A guitarist in a band he sang with (unsure if it was his band) had 2 missing fingertips that he lost working in a factory. He had to have them taped to play the guitar...that is what you call rock n roll 
Any fans amongst us? |

I’ve been a big Sabbath fan since the mid 70s. Tony Iommi was the guitarist with the missing finger tips. He made prosthetic fingertips from Fairy Liquid bottle tops so he could continue to play guitar |

I think you're getting him confused with Ritchie Blackmore who is the one doing medieval music |

He couldn’t, but it was how he developed such a distinctive sound when he played power chords. |

I wonder if he would have made his mark, been so good, so distinctive without losing them? |

After he was sacked from Sabbath for always being off his head Sharron got him to eventually start touring solo.
On his "Blizzard of Oz" tour in America they played a gig in Texas and Sharron sick of him going out and getting d*unk hid all his clothes in their hotel room.
She popped out and he needing a drink decided to put one of her dresses on and left for a tour of the local bars.
Hours later and staggering back to the hotel he took a piss up the sacred Alamo monument and got arrested.
He was banned from the state for years lol.
I got his autograph, Tony and Geezer's on their last ever gig in Australia.
When I told him I was from Dudley he said...
"Ye,ye,ye,ye, will ye do me a favour and wish Noddy a Merry fuckin' Christmas and tell him to shut the fuck up... I'm fucking sick of it every fucking year man i,i,i,i,its gettin' beyond a fucking joke..."

He would have been a great guitarist either way but who knows about the sound. |

I’m 20 mins away from Brum so you bet I can
They've been married for 38 years 
That is so so special..I admire that "
She has been his manager for many years, even though her Dad didn't want them to be together in the first place  |

Fan!! Cried the first time I saw him, as was looking at my God on the stage- that was Milton Keynes bowl, smiled like a loon the other times, and the last time I saw him I cried again as he seemed so frail- that was Download.

Its difficult seeing our idols getting old .
In my head the likes of coverdale ,ozzy and Lemmy are the same as they were in the 80,s.
I cried when Lemmy died . I know i will when Ozzy and Coverdale go too. |

Lemmy dying was so sad (Bowie was too) One of my friends broke his heart when Lemmy died as he was his hero and his influence to joining a band. At least he got to meet him a few time’s though so he has amazing memories.
Coverdale was awesome at Download, but so weird hearing such a posh voice say “fuck me!” Haha xx |

Not quite sure on coverdales speaking voice , Lemmy reckoned it was like widow twankie. Its a transatlantic mix these days. Not at all like a saltburn lad. |
