Iron Man chronicles the story of both pioneering guitarist Tony Iommi and legendary band Black Sabbath, dubbed "The Beatles of heavy metal" by Rolling Stone. Iron Man reveals the man behind the icon yet still captures Iommi's humor, intelligence, and warmth. He speaks honestly and unflinchingly about his rough-and-tumble childhood, the accident that almost ended his career, his failed marriages, personal tragedies, battles with addiction, bandmates, famous friends, newfound daughter, and the ups and downs of his life as an artist.
Everything associated with hard rock happened to Black Sabbath first: the drugs, the debauchery, the drinking, the dungeons, the pressure, the pain, the conquests, the company men, the contracts, the combustible drummer, the critics, the comebacks, the singers, the Stonehenge set, the music, the money, the madness, the metal.

Geschichte
People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of 60, with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f--king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time. A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. But I ain't the devil.

Pioneers of Britain's nascent rock and metal scene back in the late 1970s, Iron Maiden smashed its way to the top, thanks in no small part to the high-octane performances, operatic singing style, and stage presence of its second but twice-longest-serving lead singer, Bruce Dickinson. As Iron Maiden's front man - first from 1981 to 1993 and then from 1999 to the present - Dickinson has been, and remains, a man of legend.

Geschichte
Face the Music is the shocking, funny, smart, inspirational story of one of rock’s most enduring icons and the group he helped create. Stanley mixes compelling personal revelations and gripping, gritty war stories that will surprise even the most steadfast member of the KISS Army. He takes us back to his childhood in the 1950s and 60s, a time made more painful thanks to a physical deformity. Born with a condition called microtia, he grew up partially deaf, with only one ear. But this instilled in him an inner drive to succeed in the most unlikely of pursuits: music.

James Hetfield, with whom many years ago Mustaine founded a band known as Metallica, once observed, with some incredulity, that Mustaine must have been born with a horseshoe up his ass. That's how lucky he's been, how fortunate he is to be pulling breath after so many close calls. And Hetfield is right. Mustaine has been lucky. He has been blessed. But here's the thing about having a horseshoe lodged in your rectum: It also hurts like hell. And you never forget it's there.

Roger Daltrey is the voice of a generation. That generation was the first to rebel, to step out of the shadows of the Second World War...to invent the concept of the teenager. This is his story, from his birth at the height of the Blitz through tempestuous school days to his expulsion, age 15, for a crime he did not commit (though he was guilty of many other misdemeanours he'd got away with). Thanks to Mr Kibblewhite, his draconian headmaster, it could all have ended there. The life of a factory worker beckoned. But then came rock and roll....

Now, at last, the man himself tells us the story of life in the crossfire hurricane. And what a life....

Great as audiobook, proper Brummie accent!
Although not a literary masterpiece, essential for sabbath fans! Some good trivia such as what the song title NIB actually means and it's not nativiry in black. Exhaustive coverage of the confusing 80s and 90s, to be honest I'd never heard of some albums of that period! Cross Purposes??? Inspired me to listen to some of those Tony Martin era albums. Iommi claims to have held back compared to Ozzy regarding drugs but there are still enough entertaining tales to satisfy. What lifts the book is the reader Bev Bevan, another Birmingham musician and contemporary of Iommi, whose deadpan midlands accent carries the anecdotes and fits with Iommi's really quite humble personality. I first assumed Iommi was reading it himself. Slightly disappointing was the fact that Iommi doesn't offer much insight into the Sabs' dark lyrics and artwork, he doesn't appear drawn to wanting to explore where it comes from... But I guess they weren't high-concept art rockers... To be fair Butler was the lyricist and Iommi DOES explain quite a lot about his guitar technique and I enjoyed his assessments, sometimes rather direct, of his bandmates musical skills... How Ozzy would just sing the riff as a melody while RJD would sing across the riff... Also some interesting insights into his compositional techniques... All in all I'd recommend for Sabbath fans who want to complete their knowledge of the band's lesser known periods, less so for people wanting endless drugs and booze stories. I was left with a sense of admiration for Iommi's ability to keep going, despite being the only original Sab remaining at many points and the story comes nicely full circle as the book ends with them coming back together and writing new music.
