Geezer Butler: Yeah ,because it’s a, for me, it was really strange doing solo stuff. Marc Allan: You had said when you were trying to do some solo work, that you had a hard time finding a vocalist that you liked is that because of who you had worked with in the past where you constantly comparing them to Ozzy and Dio? And a couple of months later he phoned me up and I said, “Hey, things are going.” I says, “You know, writing some good stuff with Tony.” And he spoke to Tony and suddenly the lineup was back together again. It was good to see him, you know, and we just talked about all the times and he asked me what I was doing and I told him I was doing an album with Tony. And I went down there and didn’t know what to expect. Geezer Butler: Yeah, it started with Tony and then I was in America on vacation and Ronnie’s wife and manager got in touch with me and just invited me down to a gig he was playing at.
Marc Allan: So, you started working with Tony then ran into Dio. Tony really wanted me to come back and do an album with them, which led to the Dehumanizer album. And he asked me to do the new album, but I did it for about three or four months, but I didn’t really have any contribution as far as the writing goes so, I wasn’t really satisfying myself.
Geezer Butler: Well, I finished the tour and it was a long tour, about 13 months. Marc Allan: Was it a difference of opinion or you just didn’t want to tour at that point or? Marc Allan: And then you left his band, right? And then Ozzy asked me to do the “No Rest for the Wicked” Tour with him. And I was looking for really good singer but could never find one and so I gradually lost interest in the solo side, which is fine, and just concentrated on writing songs. And then gradually started writing material. And sort of took about a year off, completely doing absolutely nothing. Geezer Butler: Well, I just wanted to spend the time with me family right away. The last I had heard of you before the Dehumanizer album was that you were going off to do a solo career. It doesn’t put money in the bank, that’s for sure.”Īnnouncer: Marc, can you hold for Geezer Butler? In the end, it doesn’t mean anything to us. are now saying we’re the greatest heavy metal band of all time and we invented it. “The critics, the people that used to slag us in the ‘70s.
