BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi will appear on the upcoming rock album by British pop star Robbie Williams.
The collaboration was announced by Robbie‘s drummer and musical director, Karl Brazil, during an episode of the “Percussion Discussion” podcast.
“[Robbie‘s] got an album to follow that we’ve been working on,” Brazil said. “He’s working with various people, but I’ve been fortunate enough to do some songs with him.”
“One of the tracks, actually, he’s done a track called ‘Rocket’ with Tony Iommi, which is very random. It’s great. It’s a rocker, and it’s really, really cool. Right up my street. It’s kinda… I’ll just let you hear it. But yeah, Tony‘s done his thing on it. There’s some great collaborations on this record. [SUPERGRASS‘s] Gaz Coombes is on there.”
Karl commented on the album’s musical direction, stating: “It’s predominately a guitar record, a bit of a throwback to his old ’90s sound but mixed with a bit of modern-day pop as well. Let’s face it, [Robbie] can do what he wants, can’t he?!”
