Yo Coach, it's true, the guitarist, Tony Iommi (the founding member) had his two middle fingertips sliced off in a factory accident. He ended up making up his own prosthetic fingertips using thimbles, melted plastic, and bits of an old leather jacket. He also put banjo strings on his guitar and loosened them to make it less painful to play, which gave him his signature sound and created the Heavy Metal genre. [Edit] While I"m at the top here, let me suggest Thank God For The Bomb by Ozzy Osbourne, if you can sneak by the copyright heathens
11bulletcatcher yeah and in that factory accident his fingers were crushed by a slab of heavy metal, which is where the name comes from because this forced him to change his sound.
I read somewhere that he discovered the whole moving power chord idea that became the basis for his sound by watching Johnny Lee Hooker use the technique sparingly in his blues playing.
@@Blackgold1155 Indeed, except for that last part " Heavy Metal" doesn't really have a real origin point for the term. It showed up in reviews, song titles, car anf motorcycle euphemisms, etc.
The manager from the factory where Tony had his accident gave him a Django Reinhardt record for inspiration. Reinhardt also had injuries to his fretting hand and could only use two fingers.
Iommi lost the tips of his middle and Index fingers on rt hand at 17 due to an accident inthe sheet metal shop he worked in on his already planned LAST day
Lucky me, that I had the chance to see black sabbath live (before they finished). It was like a bright light stood above him, such an awesome performance, one of the greatest guitarist I have ever seen!!
LMAO Coach. My parents would blast Black Sabbath to wake me in the morning for elementary. They also woke me with Iron Maiden, Dolly Parton, Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper, ACDC, Conway Twitty, Micheal Jackson, Queen, Tammy Wynett, Goerge Jones, Dr. Hook, Bon Jovi, the Statler Brothers, Opera like Carmen (my personal fav. Opera), Abba, Janice Joplin, Buddy Holly, Bob Marley, U2, Billie Idle, Beethoven (my fav. is his 5th piano concerto, not symphony, which is great, but the 5th piano concerto.), and so very very many others. My parents had an eclectic taste in music that they fostered that in me. Anyone looking at my playlist would think I was bi-polar or a multiple personality. They taught me that every genre of music has it's epic songs and legendary artists as well as some duds. Never decide that you dislike a genre because of a few songs. I am loving watching you learn the truth of music. It transcends race and culture. Music speaks to the soul. Souls don't care about race or religion. Souls identify beauty in all forms. As does music.
YES COACH! Dio - Last in Line Lyrics or Live at the spectrum! or Rainbow - Stargazer! DIO MEANS GOD MY GUY! so excited Ive been requesting Dio for a long time, like almost every damn metal reaction.
It's absolutely impressive that you knew what you did about Dio replacing Ozzy, how good he was in comparison, the shoes he had to fill & what this meant to the Metal/Rock scene. You do your homework & understand, it is noticed and appreciated!
Guitarist name Tony Iommi, He lost two finger tips before he became a pro player! has two fake finger tips and the dude is killer! The Godfather of metal I say!
If you want you more Ronnie James Dio, check out Stargazer and Man On The Silver Mountain by Rainbow, and We Rock and Holy Diver by "Dio." Especially Holy Diver.
Just got done watching your Fade to Black reaction. Lets get Shaq to finally listen to a pure instrumental of emotion. ORION! "Metal is just pure emotion", and that song is as pure as it gets from Metallica. No words, just feel it in your soul.
If you want to listen to by far the best song ever sung by Dio you should react to "Stargazer" by Rainbow, the album version. Ultra pipes and great guitar, you'll love it
Absolutely LOVE your reactions. I come here for validation that the music I love isn't just in my head and that it actually reaches others. Keep it up. No pressure!
You crack me up, man.....love your reactions. So glad you're doing metal. You should do Black Sabbath - Fairies Wear Boots. It's one of the older one's with Ozzy.
Ozzy era sabbath made the better, most loved music, but Dio was the better singer.. Ozzy is a great vocalist and front man, but RJD definitely had better pipes.
@@garnetbezanson1404 A band called Elf. Their debut from 1972. Plays bass & goes by the name Ronnie Padavona. Another interesting little side note , before Elf they were the electric elves & covered war pigs. I believe its up on RUclips somewhere .
I love Black Sabbath and I've seen several videos in your channel of you reacting to metal songs and Heaven and Hell is and Anthem... Nice video, Horns Up from El Salvador.
Coach! You setting RUclips on fire with your musical diversity.... appreciating the metal stuff. And yes there’s very few singers like Ronnie James Dio, I personally believe he’s up there with the likes of the late and very great Freddy Mercury.
Ozzy's era is the true Sabbath in my eyes but my God were they masterful with Dio just the same. Some of my absolute favorites from the Dio era are Falling Off the Edge of the World, I, The Mob Rules, Sign of the Southern Cross, Neon Knights, Children of the Sea and Die Young. 🤘
Shaq, it warm’s an old man’s heart to see a young man discover and appreciate magnificent metal music. Try AC/DC ‘74 Jailbreak with Bon Scott. Rock on dude 🤘🏻
Great review Shaq, and you should keep the kids toys out. Makes us feel closer to the fam. You should give a listen to "In This River" by Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society) - Live in Paris. It's his tribute to Dimebag Darrell.
While working in a factory as a teenager, Iommi lost the tips of the middle and ring fingers of his right hand in an accident, an event which crucially affected his playing style. talk about a true life example of this songs meaning. Hell took his finger tips and heaven made him one of rocks most notable guitar players in rocks biggest band ever. Black Sabbath is pretty much known to have the best rhythm sections ever. Your love for music is great man, makes for great reactions.
@@dekudude8888 it really is. It's so incredibly inspiring and those people sets an good remodel for people who think they can't realise their full potential or goals because of a disability
It's truly rotten luck to be a drummer but lose an arm, however he pulled through - the best part is that he had great supportive bandmates who didn't let him go even though they had a valid reason to. Huge respect to Def Leppard.
CHALLENGE Right, so I see a few comments down here looking for s and m metallica. Coach, my challenge to you is as follows: 1)DO NOT RESEARCH WHAT S AND M IS It is vital we (Nolifegang) see your reaction when you see on screen what it is. I'll confirm, to save to doubting this, that s and m is the real awesome metallica AND it is live. I won't say anymore on the topic of s and m. COMMENTERS BELOW DON'T say what it is. 2) Next cavet is there's two songs to react too, but they must be in the one video ie. At the end of the first reaction get straight to the second... You get my drift. See I need your adrenaline sky high for the second one. The two songs you must react two whilst obeying the two above rules are: Metallica S and M live - No Leaf Clover Metallica S and M live - Battery No Life Gang, y'all got two things to do, don't mention below what s and m is AND UPVOTE THE SHIT OUT OF THIS SO SHAQ HEARS US!!!!
A couple old school songs that meant a lot to me back in my military days were HELLOWEEN's "I Want Out" ( talk about a vocalist holding a note! MINDBLOWING!) and METAL CHURCH's "Badlands" (I would blast that in my walkman in IRAQ during DESERT STORM) Good stuff!
Ozzy was on so much shit that he needed to get an intervention. Partly why Sabbath split with him. He went solo and his brain fried a bit after all the drugs. Love or hate Sharon, her management and organization was one of the only thing keeping him on track. The bat issue only occurred cause he had no idea wtf it was and yolo bit on it.
It's the same damn thing... Let go, removed, went different ways. Either way, Tony,nor the rest of the band wanted to keep working with him; a dude so drugged out and going down such a spiral that it drug down the music, the band and directly affected their live performances. Again, speaking on a professional level, there was never much hate between the bandmates. You do realize no one disagreed with you, right?
What a truly magical time it was, i was 14 and nobody knew what Black Sabbathwould be like with the new singer...it took metal to a whole new level. Right around the same time ac-dc came out with Back in Black. I remember taking bong hits of Colombian gold listening to this stuff and just being blown away by it. Black Sabbath including Ozzy and all of the other singers and players were the creators of great masterpieces such as this. Long live rock & roll, rest in peace Ronnie
I think the two best things about this great guy is watching him grooving to a song that kicked my ass when I was 13 years old (I'm 52), plus he reawakens my appreciation of a song I've known so long but kind of set aside over the years. Not forgetting it, just not listening like I used to. Breaking out my Sabbath Dio era albums now!
I love how you react to songs I have been listening to for decades. You bring a fresh perspective to what I stopped hearing when I listened to this and much more. I love it! Thank you for doing this honestly. It is really cool.
Shaq, I can't believe no one mentioned Slayer... You should do a reaction about Slayer, Seasons In The Abyss. Awesome job with these reactions, keep'em coming
So glad you covered this Bro. One of my very favorite songs ever. It was a pleasure to see you discover this gem and appreciate it. The world is full of kings and queens Who blind your eyes and steal your dreams Those lines give me goose bumps all these long years since first hearing them. ASMR before there was ASMR....
Not many rock songs where the lyrics make your face melt but this is one of them (it’s normally the solo that melts your face). “The world is full of Kings and queens who blind your eyes and steal your dreams.” BAR!
This guy is like a breath of fresh air!! Authentic, thoughtful, open mind, and imo his reaction vids - a lot more important than we know right now. But we don't HAVE to know, because they are so enjoyable NOW! As a lifelong rock fan, how can you not love this?!?
Any of the metal suggestions in the comments are great! My suggestions are Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here and the cover of this song by Avenged Sevenfold! Both back to back!!
At the age of 17, Iommi lost the tips of the middle and ring fingers of his right hand in an industrial accident on his last day of work in a sheet metal factory. ... After the injury Iommi considered abandoning the guitar entirely.
I remember arguing with my brother in law about Ozzy vs DIO in Black Sabbath. Ozzy was special so was DIO. There’s no winner they are both great. Angels are immortal. If you couldn’t die why would you not smoke?
so much respect for you man your a real dude who is just reacting to videos. your an inspiration to so many man keep it up. hope to see nothing but success
Ronnie James Dio was an awesome story teller. He was a great teacher of human behavior. And an awesome human being. One of the best singers of rock and roll and metal ever !

" Heavy Metal" doesn't really have a real origin point for the term. It showed up in reviews, song titles, car anf motorcycle euphemisms, etc.
@@Blackgold1155 Great story... but completely false. AFAIK, the term 'heavy metal' comes from the song 'Born To Be Wild'.
The manager from the factory where Tony had his accident gave him a Django Reinhardt record for inspiration. Reinhardt also had injuries to his fretting hand and could only use two fingers.
Ronnie James was the iconic metal voice. An amazing man. He took metal to a whole new level This song here is amazing.
Bruce too!

"How the hell you playing guitar with no fingertips?!" Perfect

Dat is tuff my guy!
Iommi lost the tips of his middle and Index fingers on rt hand at 17 due to an accident inthe sheet metal shop he worked in on his already planned LAST day
In all honesty he put thimbles ocer his fingers so he can play
The first comment on every rock/metal post is pure gold. All the best of his many funny sayings from that review.
This song just hits every time and gives me chills. One of my favourites of all time.
Tony Iommi is literally a riff God....its second nature to him.

ORION!
"Metal is just pure emotion", and that song is as pure as it gets from Metallica. No words, just feel it in your soul.
I personally prefer To live is to Die. You can feel their pain after the loss of Cliff so well in that song
CommanderCody1 if been putting Orion on every video he puts let’s hope he will do it soon 🤘🏻
I agree with this
Love your reactions. Dio's impact on music was unreal. He made a lot of heavy metal more lyrical, and we lost a giant when he passed.
That song was recorded 40 years ago. Still amazing today.
Dio was classically trained! He's like 5'2" and sings like a metal angel!
You shoukd react to Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath of the album Black Sabbath. Just saying.
Yh Then he can black sabbath his black sabbath to black sabbath on a black sabbath
My favorite!
Under the sun
you should here after forever with ozzy

techically yes, but I much prefer the feeling and personality in ozzy´s voice, specially the black sabbath ozzy
I'm definitely more of an Ozzy man when it comes to Sabbath.
Egypt "THE CHAINS " song by Ronnie James Dio
Ozzy is subjetive. A taste you like. Dio is absolute.
Oh yeh, OZZY it’s not great, no talent, just one 🙏clowns, it’s the 🐷 pig, he sing this👎

Gone too early.
Aww man...now you done hit my favorite metal singer if all times....HOLY DIVER has GOT to be next...search DIO and that song title.
Long Live Dio , Ozzy and Dio were both great in Black Sabbath.
Hope Ozzy is all right. With everything going on with him scary..
Yes 2 legends
I've also grown to like Born Again with Gillan, people keep ignoring that (and the Tony Martin albums which are generally pretty good too).

Black Sabbath "Heaven & Hell" 1980 (I was 13) One of the first 3 albums as a kid I bought with my own money AND To this day still a all time favorite

Ronnie is incredible, but Ozzy is more my style. Do Paranoid next. Only 3 mins, but it goes hard
YWNCCTHIF best Black Sabbath song in my opinion
He should do paranoid Nib children of the grave and Sabbath bloody sabbath
"Into the void" and "Sweet leaf"
Automatic like for anything Dio-related. He was my intro to Metal and for that holds a special place for me.
Peace
Great review Shaq, and you should keep the kids toys out. Makes us feel closer to the fam. You should give a listen to "In This River" by Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society) - Live in Paris. It's his tribute to Dimebag Darrell.
you gotta check out Rainbow-Stargazer. Dio's best vocal performance.
you act like Dio never sang "Love Is All" back in 74. He was making cartoons metal before rainbow hit it off

Sign of the Southern Cross ... AWESOME .. .love me some Ronnie James

A couple old school songs that meant a lot to me back in my military days were HELLOWEEN's "I Want Out" ( talk about a vocalist holding a note! MINDBLOWING!)
and METAL CHURCH's "Badlands" (I would blast that in my walkman in IRAQ during DESERT STORM)
Good stuff!
Two for Tuesday metal reactions that's TUFF!! Another amazing reaction my guy got to love Dio!!
Ozzy was kicked out of Black Sabbath. Tony Iommi said NUH UH, NOT TODAY. And then born was Crazy Train.
Well, first he quit, then he came back, recorded Never Say Die, and was immediatly fired afterwards.
Right! Like I said, fired!!!
Ozzy was on so much shit that he needed to get an intervention. Partly why Sabbath split with him. He went solo and his brain fried a bit after all the drugs. Love or hate Sharon, her management and organization was one of the only thing keeping him on track.
The bat issue only occurred cause he had no idea wtf it was and yolo bit on it.
Andrew Neumann fired!!!!
It's the same damn thing... Let go, removed, went different ways. Either way, Tony,nor the rest of the band wanted to keep working with him; a dude so drugged out and going down such a spiral that it drug down the music, the band and directly affected their live performances. Again, speaking on a professional level, there was never much hate between the bandmates.
You do realize no one disagreed with you, right?
Yes Holy Driver , Rainbow in the Dark or Last in line all classics .

Yo you on a roll today Coach . Rainbow in the Dark by Dio next . Or Dont Talk to Strangers
Shaq, you MUST review "Children of the Sea" from this LP! Ronnie James Dio's vocals in that song is out of this world!!!!
That guy went off with the guitar
Love when people discover tru meaningfulness of the song. Look at the big picture and you’ll understand metal and rock, as the same with all music!
I think the two best things about this great guy is watching him grooving to a song that kicked my ass when I was 13 years old (I'm 52), plus he reawakens my appreciation of a song I've known so long but kind of set aside over the years. Not forgetting it, just not listening like I used to. Breaking out my Sabbath Dio era albums now!
Yo Shaq imma ask again please react to iron man by Black Sabbath coach one of their best songs
Big Black Sabbath fan here. Ozzy is classic but I've always felt Dio was the perfect fit, musically speaking.
Ronnie James Dio... A big voice coming from a little guy.
I love how you react to songs I have been listening to for decades. You bring a fresh perspective to what I stopped hearing when I listened to this and much more. I love it! Thank you for doing this honestly. It is really cool.
Dio has a voice that I can only describe as Royal. It just sounds like a king giving a speech in front of soldiers

Black sabbath 1970 - 1975 (first 6 records) is the best.
Imo Never Say Die is a pretty good album too

Do 'Black Sabbath'

After R J D passed, Bruce gave him a shout out at a Maiden concert in France. Also learned that Dio was one of Bruce's vocal coaches
Gotta do some Led Zeppelin Coach! Stairway to Heaven or Kashmir
Tony Iommi made fingertips out of cork and relearned the guitar. Legendary
Tony Jimmie lost his fingers on his last day of work in a factory. So he made finger extension to play guitar.
At the age of 17, Iommi lost the tips of the middle and ring fingers of his right hand in an industrial accident on his last day of work in a sheet metal factory. ... After the injury Iommi considered abandoning the guitar entirely.
Thanks for keeping the vids coming coach!!
For metal get some old Linkin Park on the channel!
And some Game and 50 Cent tracks would be dope!
I remember arguing with my brother in law about Ozzy vs DIO in Black Sabbath. Ozzy was special so was DIO. There’s no winner they are both great. Angels are immortal. If you couldn’t die why would you not smoke?
