only Iommi is the founding Metal Guitarist, black sabbath was the founder of metal

no way were page or blackmore metal guitarists they were just rock guitarists

the only thing that blackmore and Iommi have in common is they used blues styles in their playing.

I take back my last message. I think Richie Blackmoore has also had a huge impact on metal. People like Yngwie, MacAlpine and even Randy, I can always hear a lot of Blackmoore in their playing. Like the start of the 2nd Mr Crowley solo, or bits in Steal Away's solo. I think Iommi had an effect on every one but Blackmoore had an effect more on the Classical zone.
