Moustache, Cross, Gibson SG ...

For all those who praise the legendary guitarist Mr. Frank Anthony "Tony" Iommi and enjoy his simple, druggy, heavy, memorable riffing and emotional solos ... simply his unique style of playing the instrument.

It was him (and his bandmates - mainly Geezer Butler), back in the late 60s / early 70s, who slowed down rock'n'roll, who made blues-rock simple and more crushing ... it was him who first played downtuned to create really owerwhelming, deep, druggy and heavy sound for the early Black Sabbath records ...

He is hailed as the godfather of STONER ROCK and DOOM METAL genres. His influence on whole rock/metal scene is indisputable.

Very rare moment captured here: Tony without moustache!! On stage with Ozzy, early 70s (Master of Reality tour I think)

Hail the RIFFMASTER PAR EXCELLENCE !!!
