rimarily a lyricist, it’s usually the words that draw me to a song. (My primary beef with country music is that the lyrics tend to be trite or on a subject I find uninteresting or just poorly written. This does not apply to Brad Paisley, in case you were wondering.)
It’s always fun, then, to love a song for the music, then discover its message.
his morning I heard Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man” for the first time in almost thirty years. I was surprised that it appealed to me just as much as when I was twelve. I was also surprised at how exactly lead guitarist Tony Iommi sounded like Led Zeppelin‘s Jimmy Page during the same era. I never read an Iron Man comic, although I was vaguely familiar with the character. An Iron Man movie was planned a couple years ago, and according to some sources is due for release in about 2004.
Wonder if Black Sabbath will reunite to do the soundtrack? I’d prefer Peter Gabriel, myself.

Daniel Edlen paints Vinyl Art, portraits of musicians and entertainers on vinyl records made by the subject. Instead of Elvis on velvet, think Elvis on an Elvis record.
For a mere $250 you can have a custom unique work of fine art. That's almost as good as saying you got to see the Beatles live.
Visit Vinyl Art & give your favorite music lover a remarkable gift.
