Let me explain something to you - you have not been standing in front of thirty thousand decibals for thirty-five years - write me a note!
I didn't think anything we did was spectacular. I remember we thought, 'Let's just write some scary music.'
They said I would never write this book. Well, f**k ’em – ’cos here it is. All I have to do now is remember something... Bollocks. I can’t remember anything.
There was a cinema called The Orient outside the community centre where we rehearsed in Six Ways, and whenever it showed a horror film the queue would go all the way down the street and around the corner. 'Isn't it strange how people will pay money to frighten themselves?' I remember Tony [Iommi] saying one day. 'Maybe we should stop doing blues and write scary music instead.'
I listen to some of the lyrics I used to write and I say, "Where was my head at when I wrote that?"
I never thought I could write anything or do a show sober, ever. But I did the Black Sabbath shows sober, and it was so much better fun for me, and everybody.
