Tribute To Tony Iommi

[DaAzisum]

Tony Iommi = The Greatest Riffer in the WORLD!

[TheAdyshaw]

Top man! I could listen to the Neon Nights riff all night & nothing else, and still go to bed happy! Tony Iommi has got to be the greatest "riff" guitarist of all time. Just ask Ozzy and Ronnie James Dio (RIP)....

[ravitejayanamandra]

Who the Fuck "Disliked" this video?

Fuckin Jealous Prick.

But Seriously Dude FUCKIN A

[Sabbathfan1996]

Amazing job with all of the riffs, you've earned a subscriber.

[skaterkid998]

Awesome job, you my friend, have earned a subscriber!

[petriofsweden]

Fantastic!!Nice to hear the riffs from born again and eternal isol.Great!!

[ThickAzABrick]

As a true Sab fan for the past 40 years and a HUGE Tony fan.... Nice. Very, very nice.

[WarningRules]

6:23-6:35=<3

Fuck. Such an underrated riff from the best and most underrated era of Sabbath :'(

[seancoppinger]

just found a great website that listed some short fingered guitarists. Tony Iommi was one of them. I might be able to learn these sabbath riffs without needing hands like a monkey.

[Luizeppelin84]

Nice tribute!!!

[MrRettrt]

wow what guitar is that  anyways nice keep going

[MrGERARDO234]

GRAN TRIBUTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bassman3212]

[spartanguitar117]

i love the sound of ur equipment, how do you get that sound, amp? pedals? ect?

[DrumGuitarDude]

The pick ups dude...

[Enigmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

well done

[WarningRules]

You played the Paranoid riff incorrectly.

[Enigmaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

read descrition

[WarningRules]

Yep. Saw that after I posted. But it's weird because it seems most bands that cover play it wrong. Or at least it seems weird, anyway.

Oh yeah, by the way, way to go, "Niklas" :grin:

[spartanguitar117]

no, tony plays it at the 12th fret, thats what he did.

[myownservant]

Well done man, really enjoyed that

[ilovejapan888]

[EverGreeNmaX]

[AndrewZirpolo]

[damikkpl]

Nice. What guitar and amp do you use? Is this SG?

[ilovejapan888]

yes it is an sg

[roxxas5]

Very nice dude. But where did you get your guitar?

[zepkid1]

I have my own ''Tribute To Black Sabbath'' composition and to see it go to ''you-tube'' and type in ''zepkid1'' This is a 9 minute piece that took me 4 years to work out.I still need to upload a better version but you will get the idea and feel of my feelings for one of the greatest bands ever. I am playing on my Hendrix Woodstock reissue stratacaster

[octaivermatt]

best video of this category here.

[WarningRules]

Why would anyone play paranoid for a tribute to Iommi? It's bad, that's all.

not the tribute, it wasn't THAT bad, but the Paranoid thing, It's bad.

[BillWard1990]

Behind the wall of sleep? man i want to create a SB tribute band are u in?

[dwulster]

Hey.  You are modest. That was just great. Tony would be very impressed I am sure. Very good economy of motion. I really like it and I know the music well.

[ilovejapan888]

play war pigs

[metalman44444]

WHO MISSED "WHEELS OF CONFUSSION"

[Claoodeeoo]

That was not Tony Iommi, but it was not so bad, but Tony would do way better with his 2 fingers than this man with 4......anyway good job, but it had been a lot better if tony had played this....

[syrrahccp]

[whothefucisgaunt]

You have to special order it. That's how I got mine

[advuh]

[berylman]

Not the best playing ever, but hey I love the Sabbath and anyone who studies under the Iommi is a pal of mine so I say rock on.

For some reason the way you played Mob Rules sounded really good to me.

[blacksabbathmetal]

I have EVERY Black Sabbath album ever, and I mean every single one, and I recognise the riff, but I don't know what the song name or album is. Could somebody tell me? It starts at 5:34. Thanks.

[theeternalidol]

Hello, and thanks for all friendly comments!

Blacksabbathmetal:

The riff at 5:34 was my interpretation of "Seventh Star" from the self titled album, 1986.

[akaboo69]

dude finally someone who recognizes all sabbath thats cool wut kind of amp do u use and stuff

[FanMedia44]

What's your set up, you sound very much like him?

[johnnecron]

you have to be a lefty to do iommi

or leave it the fuck alone.

you go left hand man!!!

[TryAgainDie]

are you retarded. look at his hands, his left hand is on the left side. You clearly have know idea what your talkin about

[leonrocks99]

anybody can do iommi riffs, im right handed and i can play em fine

[Ryche9]

nice work man!

[comocarlitos]

great, you played some of the best song ever of rock-metal

[steelbath66]

I like how you incorporated stuff from the Ozzy years, Dio years and Tony Martin years

[Ravanisingh]

nice job...tony jr.

[martinzzgg]

[HoboClownTracks]

God your such a whiny little bitch if you want the signature just fucking earn some money! Go out and mow people lawns or rake the grass! Work! Then when you have the Money you can buy it!

[johnnecron]

[RCBPearce]

Good stuff!

[Templarmusic]

Fantastic! Thanks for the entertainment. Iommi is my God. Watching you nail so many riffs was/is terrific. Rob Bendelow

[Leftygolfer14]

There is nothing like the sound of sabbath rift coming off an sg.

[lennonlegend0909]

u bastard u got the signature sg lol

[rocabilly1]

Bloody awesome tone!

[kiddmark66]

Thanks for the great contribution. Many have asked but, I didnt see any replies to two important questions about your sound. If you can please... 1) Amp used? 2)What if any effects. Thanks man... good work

[mcwaddle]

is embryo a real song??

by the original sabbath or any sabbath era

[sabbathmetallica]

Embryo is a 28 sec long instrumental song, 3rd song on the Master of Reality album... it's an intro to Children of the Grave but Embryo is considered as a song on it's own if you know what I mean... I hope I helped :)

and yes it's Ozzy era:D

[honcuk]

good, though some of them were quite wrong. you did good job with the post-ozzy stuff, The Eternal Idol is an awesome and underrated album... hails to Iommi

[steelbath66]

Psshhhh... Headless cross is better

[sabbathmetallica]

ohh lol it's Dirty Women from Technical Ecstasy album 1976 :)

[sabbathmetallica]

what song is that @ 02:43? I just can't remember LOL

[iagostar]

You did Seventh Star! I am truly impressed! It sounded a bit off though...I actually got that riff down at 95% accuracy...but great work none the less!

[upstreet123]

soo fukin sweet man sounds so nice !!!!!!!!!!!

[blacksabbathvids]

dude, heaven and hell riff was ni-yce

[loadedgoblin]

You truly are a proper Sab-head! going through all the eras. I salute you man

[mcwaddle]

dude nice but you forgot his most famous riff (IRON MAN THE MAIN RIFF)

[mcwaddle]

awesome toni iommi is the greatest heavy metal guitarists who ever played metal!!!!!!!

[wishofthedawn]

nice...

[ozzypossum]

Oh & great covers to

[ozzypossum]

I don't say this to alot of people but your mom must have been a groupie of Black Sabbath because you had to have inherited those skills from someone. lol

[shralper07]

Excellent!!! Well done....nice collection of classic sabb riffs! Good sound too! \m/ \m/

[ea910]

perfect..........

[guitargisele]

sweet

[IronMan8888888]

Dude, I was on the edge, contemplating buying that G-400. You sold me. What amp are you running with it and what tuning are you in?

Iommi is my favorite guitarist so I wouldn't compliment you unless I really meant it. Kickass job...

[jnsrock1]

great!

[Smitty370]

Please, man, sign up to Ultimate Guitar and post this wicked shit on there

[theeternalidol]

Hehe thanks. It's the Epiphone Iommi G-400.

Cheers.

[theknicks]

Good shit man. Now trying playing those with half your finger missing.

[Fezztecfilms]

Gibson or Epiphone..?

[Castillo9098]

nice sg gibson 400 signature toni iommi guitar i love it

[ozzypossum]

what's up Niklas it is me geezer from the forum

[icitnow]

What mistakes?! Damn that was great! I know more of the Ozzy/Dio/Gillan era songs but you play and sound great!

What kind of amp are you using? Is it a Laney? It sounds warmer than I thought a Laney would sound (if it is a Laney)Thanks for the great riffs!

[BlackSabbathVol1]

BLACK SABBATH !!!

[bigbadnewyorker6]

and your amazing my friend thanks

[bigbadnewyorker6]

sabbath fucking rocks, tony is amazing

[Smitty370]

Dude, you should post some of the songs that aren't listed on Ultimate Guitar Tabs. Now you can post videos and music like this on UG.

[omaroudplayer]

Black freaken Sabbath Yeah! Other Metal bands are attempts to become Sabbath failing at different stages of the road.

[danophile07]

next u should the cover the riffs featured in the new song, that are on the cd dio years, only 3 songs, the devil cryed, shadow of the wind and, another i cant remember lol

[theeternalidol]

Yeah you mean Era In The Wall! I think I can play all those riffs quite easy =)

They rock

[danophile07]

thast the one ye they rock lots

[scheidtl]

So cool! I love all Black Sabbath Riffs.

I have even the same guitar like you.Are you also lefthanded?

[theeternalidol]

Yep!

[Allmightysabbath]

Cant some one pls tell me what the song at 2,42 is...Need to know ! :D

[theeternalidol]

Thanks for the positive feedback! =)

The riff in 2:42 is from the song Dirty Women, Technical Ecstasy 1976 LP

[JayDeeSG]

Check out my Ironman cover. Keep jamming! I have some other Sabbath covers that I may post soon.

[intothevoid34]

man i found very little mistakes if any, u rock man u nailed his tone perfectly it sounds just like him ur awesome!!

[varin2007]

Realy good!!! there's almost no mistakes!

...and your guitar is so butiful

and your LEFTY like me!!!

[fenderstratguy]

Bro, Great tone on that Custom Shop Iommi! HOW MUCH is that thing worth nowadays?!

[JayDeeSG]

Looks like the epiphone G400 version, probably less than $500.00

[C4ap]

Its the Epiphone version. The custom shop has the crosses up the neck, the Epiphone only goes to the 12th.

[skodateam]

dude, you made me cry. Tony is a God`s chosen person just like Jimmy Hendrix. Nobody will ever replace him. Modern musicians are good but not original, everything has already been invented by old-school musicians = Purple, Zeppelin, Sabbath and Uriah Heep, these are called R4. You keep me alive!!

[iggyfritz]

Hail to the riff-master and God of Heavey Metal guitar.

[Allmightysabbath]

Can someone please tell me what song is played at 2,42. It´s from the "after-ozzy" years right? It sounds really nice! You rock! Hail Sabbath!

[Blekzebbed]

I thought i could recognize all of his riffs, but i have no idea what song that is. It's not from the ozzy years, that's for sure.

[mathiasmustillo]

hey, Can you please tell me what is the effect you are using-? thanks a lot!!

[blacksabbthiommi]

i want to get a guitar like that

amazing!

[lilfisticuffs]

tony iommi is one of my favorite guitarist and you have done him justice good job

the metal gutarist of today have excelent skill but they cant compare to this no matter how fast they play

tony played with simplicity and still sounds better than the metal gutarist of now

[blacksabbthiommi]

true

[PongoPower]

Tony Iommi is godly and you are like god-esk very nice job.

[cheffienick]

Clap, Clap, Clap, Very Well Done.

[krogstad341]

You are goooooood!

[Fezztecfilms]

How long you been playing for..?

[Megadeth1245]

how much was ur Epiphone Tony Iommi Signature??

[lilfisticuffs]

they go for $600 on the guitar center website

[Bertl89]

Is this an Epiphone or an Gibson?

[kirkwanglers32]

Hes verry good

[kirkwanglers32]

Good gutarist

[ozzypossum]

hey this is geezer from the Black Sabbath forum GREAT!!

[toecutterr6]

Very cool,no St. Vitus Dance though? Didn't Iommi also use banjo strings and downtune?

[Fezztecfilms]

even left handed... now that's a fan of Iommi!!! lol

simply the greatest guitar player of all time... can you send me the tabs for some of the riffs? lol

Thanks, Fezz.

[Tobias5036]

dude just look them them up

[guitaristbmh]

I am very impressed. Very nice overall. Children of the Sea rythm seemed a little off, but still very nicely played. I was glad to see you play stuff from the Dio years and Martin years too. Finally someone appreciates those songs even if they aren't ozzy.

[utopianreality]

Like the iommi pickup tone on this guitar - i installed them in my SG standard. what amp are you using?

[Blekzebbed]

damn, that was good and gr8 sound

[IronMaiden0AcesHigh]

cool really liked the eternal idol stuff u really got his sound (less bottom end though)but try putting even more vibrato in the chords (the neck on the epi iommi can be bent pretty well too) and use very thins strings but actually it was really good

[twodownsix]

i want this as my fuckin ringtone dude...

[kirkwanglers32]

Do you have to sware, your inarticulate, if you know what the word means Dude

[ShoeiBoy]

Signature SG... left hooker too! Very cool my friend. Very cool indeed. You seem to really have the man's sound down too... I kinda hope he sees this cos I'm sure he'd be chuffed. Really a GREAT tribute to the godfather. Good work fella!

[theeternalidol]

Thank very much, thank you!

[hamwinkie]

It is great to have an idol, and not get ridiculous about it. Tony is great. An early inspiration to me, I was about 13 when I first got into him. Then he just kept putting out recordings and to this day, WOW! Thanks for the sounds and PEACE brother.

[osky010]

are you playing in a band? IF NOT, LET ME KNOW!

[osky010]

contact me

[Rafcyk]

i like the sound of a guitar. and quite nic playing thou. waiting for the full tracks with your own solos:P

[WickedWorld1986]

Awesome playing!!!

[theeternalidol]

Thank you Bjoern =)

[HenryCovert]

great job, mate! i was singing along......

[Mustonen]

Cool. But where are the riffs from Headless Cross now-on? :)
