How much are they worth? tommy iommi net worth in 2013 is 75 million

The fortune made by Tony Iommi has come about primarily due to his role as a founding member of heavy metal legends Black Sabbath. The group is itself widely regarded as the founder of the ever popular heavy metal genre.

This $75 million fortune has received some scrutiny in the world wide media lately, as there have been reports over the past few years that Tony Iommi has been sued by one of his world famous band mates, Ozzy Osbourne. The suit came about as a result of Osbourne attempting to contest Iommi’s sole ownership of the group’s name.

It can be assumed that the suit, which has apparently been settled out of court, resulted in an arrangement which both Iommi and Osbourne can live with, as the band has reunited and embarked upon a massively successful world tour. This tour, coupled with the release of the new album “13”, has generated huge revenues. It is certain that a significant amount of Tony Iommi’s $75 million net worth has come about thanks to the Black Sabbath reunion.
