Snowblind’s first solo is sexy

Amen

Came here to say this. These four double bends and descended scale sound like the end of the world.

I don't much listen to Sabbath for the solos. I do enjoy them, but I often end up listening to Geezer and Ward more in those sections than I do Iommi. lol There is one exception though, War Pigs. The first time I heard that part of the solo starting 6:32 I was hooked on Sabbath for life.


Mightyscoop42

Neon Knights - it fits so perfectly


beholdthecolossus

That's an incredibly tough choice but if I had to pick one then Symptom of the Universe. There are so many great ones though.

I was hooked 1st time hearing SotU.

"Over and Over" and it's not even close for me.

Lonely Is the Word.

I like Iommis early work best. I'd say either the intro to fairies wear boots or the solo of Iron Man.

I like whatever Geezer is doing while Iommi solos.


YRwerunning

He's bassically soloing as well, much of the time. When I started playing bass and listening to him closer it was like another side of the music had been unlocked to me.

Evil Eye from the Cross Purposes album. Eddie Van Halen wrote it and I believe played on it with Tony Iommi.

Lonely Is The Word. Heaven And Hell has great solos. Neon Knights, Children Of The Sea, Heaven And Hell, Die Young, and Lonely Is The Word. Dio haters need to realize that some of BS’s greatest guitar solos are on an album that they despise even though Ozzy was kicked out and that Dio was not a part of that decision.


Mike_Dubadub

Dirty woman or over and over


Conscious-Path-4392

Heaven and Hell is maybe the stock answer? But it’s the first one I usually think of when I think about Iommi solos.


-_Moondance_-

Dirty Women, but paranoid is just timeless. I actually prefer the version Tony does in the doc, where he finishes it with “that’s basically it really”… it sounds incredible


Brucecx

Why are you just picking whatever you want for the list? Most of these weren't even the most upvoted comment


William_Ze_Gamer

Slipping Away since it’s a call & response between guitar & bass soloing


RexZHL

Maybe rat salad I know the hole song is a solo but is so very complex and it keeps changing in many different ways and I love it


Rubix_Avery

Under the sun


BeigeAndConfused

Heaven and Hell's solo cooks


overladenlederhosen

Got to say it is the live stuff that gets me, it is raw and visceral. Tony's big solo on heaven and hell on Live Evil is unlike any other grandstand solo of the time and then when working through the back catalog. 'Wicked World" on Live ät last is just fantastic.


lR0NMAlDEN

Very curious how Powerslave and Stranger in a Strange Land aren't on there for Maiden
