Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi has been diagnosed with lymphoma.
details
It's not cool to speculate, but I have to wonder if this is the reason the band set aside their notorious differences with Ozzy and reconvened for a new album. Kind of a now or never thing.

Sorry to hear that. Hope it's not terminal.
On a slightly humorous note, when I saw the title of this thread, I thought it was "Tony Iommi III", as in Tony's grandson. Visions of Hank III flashed thru my head....

I'm sorry to hear that. . . I hope we're not hearing about it because it's in the late stages.
Etta James is in the late stages of leukemia and dementia, so that has become a very sad waiting game for all of us fans. I'm glad I got to see her in the summer of 2006. She was on a jazz fest bill in Saratoga that included the amazing Dave Brubeck, who (at 91) is still out there. . .
