“Inspired by Reinhardt, Iommi created two thimbles made of plastic and leather to cap off his missing fingers.”
“We didn’t have enough songs for the album, and Tony just played the ‘Paranoid’ guitar lick and that was it. It took twenty, twenty-five minutes from top to bottom.”
“…the band’s visual interpretation of a ‘war pig’ was still featured on the cover; a distorted, eerie photograph of a bearded man with a sword and shield jumping out from behind a tree.”
