Enseña, aprende, comparte

Visitors to my home will leave fully versed in the early history of the influential heavy rock band Black Sabbath. Tony Iommi (guitar) was born about 200 meters away from my house. Through painstaking research i have identified many other locations significant in the early development of the band. You will walk in the footsteps of Black Sabbath during the years they roamed the streets near my home 1948-1970.
