Black Sabbath Biography : Black Sabbath has had a pretty rough upbringing. Originally formed by Ozzy Osbourne and his friends Tony Iommi (on guitar), Geezer Butler (on Bass), Ozzy Osbourne (Vocals) and drummer Bill Ward in 1969, all the boys came from extremely poor families. According to Ozzy, he only had 1 shoe to wear for part of his young life. But the boys (young men) found an outlet for this and put together their own band. It did not take long for the band to click, in fact by 1970, they released their second album called 'Paranoid' which was loaded with huge hit after hit. The album exploded Black Sabbath onto the rock/metal music scene and they never looked back.
Through out the band's life, members have come and gone; here is a list of all the members to ever be a part of Black Sabbath : Ozzy Osbourne, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, Ronnie James Dio, Bill Ward, Ian Gillan, Rob Halford, Glenn Hughes, Vinny Appice, Cozy Powell, Tony Martin, Eric Doyle Mensinger, Don Airey, Ray Gillen, Bob Daisley, Beverley Bevan, Neil Murray, Geoff Nicholls, Bob Rondinelli, Mike Bordin, Adam Wakeman, Terry Chimes, Dave Walker, Laurence Cottle, Ronnie Lee Keel, Jo Burt, David Donato, David Spitz, Gerald Woodroffe, and Gordon Copley.
