IOMMI - Solo album in 2000..

The first solo album by BLACK SABBATH's riffmaster TONY IOMMI, took nearly five years to make.

All songs were written by Iommi, producer Bob Marlette and the respective singers of each track (except "Black Oblivion", written by Iommi and Billy Corgan).

Iommi's career is linked to his time in Black Sabbath, a band he led from its formation in 1968 to its semi-retirement in 1999.

A number of musicians associated with Black Sabbath appear on Iommi. Track 9 features Ozzy Osbourne and Bill Ward.

The track also features Laurence Cottle on bass, sawn with Black Sabbath on Headless Cross. Cottle also features on tracks 3-5 and 7-9.

Tracks 3 and 7 feature guitarist Brian May, who had previously guest performed with Sabbath on their 1989 tour, performing a guitar solo on the Headless Cross album.
