Product Information

Iron Man chronicles the story of both pioneering guitarist Tony Iommi and legendary band Black Sabbath, dubbed "The Beatles of heavy metal" by Rolling Stone . Iron Man reveals the man behind the icon yet still captures Iommi's humor, intelligence, and warmth. He speaks honestly and unflinchingly about his rough-and-tumble childhood, the accident that almost ended his career, his failed marriages, personal tragedies, battles with addiction, band mates, famous friends, newfound daughter, and the ups and downs of his life as an artist. Everything associated with hard rock happened to Black Sabbath first: the drugs, the debauchery, the drinking, the dungeons, the pressure, the pain, the conquests, the company men, the contracts, the combustible drummer, the critics, the comebacks, the singers, the Stonehenge set, the music, the money, the madness, the metal.

Reviews
Publishers Weekly, 6/27 [Tony Iommi is] "the undisputed originator of heavy metal." Kirkus Reviews , 10/1/11 "[Iommi is] most entertaining when describing the Sabbath's incessant, hazardous prank-playing…The guitarist is not wholly unaware of the oft-ludicrous nature of his enterprise." Publishers Weekly , 10/3/11 "An important addition to the Black Sabbath story…Iommi's autobiography is as direct as his music." Booklist, 11/1/11 "This memoir [is] dead certain to appeal to heavy-metal fans of all ages…With plenty of behind-the-scenes stories and fresh perspectives on some of music's most notorious characters…this is a frank and honest look at a special part of rock history.", The Cleveland Sound , 12/11/11 "Fans will revel in the guitarist's lucid memory and wicked humor--but casual rock readers will likewise enjoy this tale of one unassuming English kid's improbable rise into to the pantheon of metal godliness, thanks primarily to Iommi's fairly objective storytelling, charming prose, and keen sense of the absurd...[Iommi is] a raconteur whose words are as endearing as they are informative."  Elmore , January/February 2012 "Iommi dishes on a life of heavy music and even heavier times...Dignified and classy, while still spilling plenty of messy musical beans."

This is the whole package: Iommi is candid, engaging and celebrated and that's exactly the right combo for this sort of book. Though it's Iommi's autobiography, this is also the story of Black Sabbath, one of the most celebrated and seminal rock outfits of all time. And on this journey we take with him we discover that our wildest imaginings about sixties and seventies rock n' roller behavior were only scratching the service...Iommi is a likable correspondent and you don't mind spending time in his presence for the duration of the book.

  • Great book, catchy and entertaining.

    Couldn´t stop reading the book from start to end because of Tony Iommi´s catchy narrative and good sense of humor, me being a die hard Black Sabbath fan was a very entertaining experience to read Tony Iommi´s biography and the story of one of the greatest hard rock bands ever.

  • Well done!

    I bought this for my boyfriend. We have different musical takes. A great read for any Tony Iommi fan. Filled with exciting facts and stories. Well worth it! A perfect gift for anyone you know who is into him. Ghost writer isn't great, but it doesn'tmatter!

  • Read this book if you listen to Black Sabbath!!!

    Black Sabbath is an awesome band and Tony Iommi explains everything I wanted to know about his side of the story. It's just as good as the other other rock n roll bios I've read.

  • Good Read. Funny Stories from back stage.

    Good book. Interesting stories about Iommi's and Sabbath's interactions with other artists. Lots of funny stuff about OZZY, BILL, GEEZER and of course TONY IOMMI.
