Exactly..I got baked and really listened to Ritche..he's a bad mo fo. I've listened to those songs many times and heard alot things for the first time.

Iommi is Metal.. the beginning of the end for me. My dad cranked Iron Man when I was 8 and..well..look at me.

Blackmore was my inspiration to start playing, I'm 44 and he's still my hero,

Has everyone see these?

aparently it's the last electric stuff, before he started playing lute with his young hot wife (he's my hero in every way!)

[horns666]

Oh Yeah, He put alot of stuff out with her called "Blackmores's Night"..I'm 44 Too.

My first song..smoke on the water..

I saw the Deep Purple reunion show here in Indy (years ago) with all the original members and it was remarkable to say the least. As would be obvious, Ritchie was stellar and his insane solo that in itself was for me, a moment which I'll never forget. The mans writing, playing and little nuances gets overshadowed by the glitz and glamor side of things.
Before there was Malmsteen, Edward, Vai, Satch, Lynch and plenty of others,
there was Blackmore, Beck and Hendrix. No need to say more.
In my eyes, it least to me anyways, Ritchie, Jeff and Jimi are the Giants of rock guitar.

I might as well follow suit, I'm 44 too.

My first love in music will always be punk, but when it comes to Metal Sabbath and Motorhead are the ultimate metal bands for me (I'm only 38!). Sabbath were the first proper out and out metal band imo and Tony Iommi virtually invented heavy-metal. Lots of people go on about Led Zep and Purple, two great bands but when it comes to metal, Sabbath are the ones for me and Iommi is probably one of the most innovative gutiarists along with Hendrix and Eddie Van Halen in this genre. Iommi was the first to really emphasise the riff based song, the first to tune down to keys as low as C and the first to just play heavy heavy music, heavier than anything that had come before. I love every Sabbath album right up to The Seventh Star (which was really only Iommi on his todd). I haven't heard Past Lives believe it or not but will get it ASAP. Iommi = Legend

yeah iommi is god! blackmore is great also! purple and rainbow kicked ass. 44 also. Ozzy said they wanted to do something different then the peace, love thing that was going on at that time,Something like scary and dark type of music and thats when sabbath's sound came to life.

[Wylde06]

Iommi is the reason I picked up a guitar
