Black Sabbath have released a statement today in which they revealed that Tony Iommi their legendary guitarist and inventor of the heavy metal riff has been diagnosed with lymphoma and is discussing treatment with doctors. Although caught in it's early stages this is a serious illness and we are all asked to send our "good vibes" to Tony to help him get back to health. The band will continue working on their new album but will move the recording sessions from Los Angeles to London. It is not know how much affect this will have on their forthcoming world tour. Tony is both a music and a Birmingham legend and I wish him a speedy return to full health. Keep on rockin' Tony.......
