Rush featured in July, 2012 issue of Metal Hammer magazine
The July, 2012 issue of Metal Hammer magazine contains an article on Rush titled Kingdom Come by Dom Lawson on page 94. Alex Lifeson is interviewed and discusses the recording of Clockwork Angels, the band's Time Machine Tour, the Rush documentary and more. The magazine is a special issue paying tribute to Black Sabbath and contains a sidebar piece about how Rush met Ozzy Osbourne during the recording of A Farewell To Kings. Ozzy stopped by Rockfield Studios in Wales where Rush was recording - he was apparently looking for drugs and couldn't find any. Alex Lifeson also cites Iron Man as his favorite Black Sabbath song. There is also another sidebar piece as titled What Rush and Machine Head Have In Common. Thanks to RushFanForever for the heads up.

I believe it should say "Ozzy Osbourne met Rush"
It's great to see Alex comment on the influence, and importance of, the mighty Black Sabbath! Their contribution to the hard rock world can NEVER be overemphasized. For myself, I'd pick 'Into The Void' as the greatest Sabbath song EVER recorded! NOBODY should ever be allowed to remake this timeless classic! While I'm at it, here's wishing Tony (THE RIFF MASTER! I'm sure Alex would agree as well!) continued progress with his health and well-being. Thanks RIAB. Great thread!
Black Sabbath would have sounded a whole lot better if Bill Ward hadn't used those crappy DW drums.
Number two. Whew.
Alex , Ged, & Neil should have shared some of their Coke & Heroin with Ozzy. Selfish fellas!! lol
