Black Sabbath: Original Lineup Rehearsed For First Time In Years

Guitarist Tony Iommi has told U.K.'s Terrorizer magazine that the four original members of Black Sabbath recently got together in a rehearsal room for the first time in years, adding, "(We) played some of the old stuff and to be together again was great. We're all on good terms and we're at a stage where we can play together again. It would be good if we could and I suppose it's the closest it's been to be able to do that. It could happen!"

Singer Ozzy Osbourne told Billboard.com last week that a reunion of the original Black Sabbath lineup was a "very, very strong possibility." He added, "It's in the very early stages, so we haven't recorded anything yet. If it works out, it'll work out. If it doesn't, I'll keep doing my thing."
