BLACK Sabbath have been awarded the freedom of Birmingham as they get set to play together for the first time in 20 years.

Founding members of the heavy metal band - formed in the city in 1968 - were presented with scrolls and medals at a ceremony at the weekend.

Terence “Geezer” Butler, Tony Iommi, Ozzy Osbourne and Bill Ward were recognised for their significance to the cultural and musical identity of Birmingham and as pioneers of heavy metal in the city and beyond.
