Tony Iommi
Francis Anthony "Tony" Iommi is a guitarist who is most famous as the guitarist of heavy metal band Black Sabbath. Iommi started with drums, but later he learned to play guitar left handedly. When he was 17 a metal plate sliced the tips of his right hand fingers, but that didn't stop him in playing guitar and becoming one of the most influental Heavy Metal guitarists. In 1969 he formed Black Sabbath alongside Ozzy Osbourne, Geezer Butler and Bill Ward. They created Heavy Metal.
After Black Sabbath broke up in 2006 Iommi continued playing in Heavy Metal Band - Heaven and Hell. After Heaven and Hell broke up in 2010 due to the band's singer's death Iommi started a solo career.
