Title: Brian May says there's a chance of his collaboration with Tony Iommi coming out.

Honestly, a box set of new/unreleased Iommi riffs would be pretty swell.

"That’s right! Obviously there have been rumours of collaborations between you and Tony for a long time. Is there any chance that could still happen?"

“I think there is a chance. We do more talking than anything else, but we do a lot of talking. He is really my dearest friend in the business and has been for so many years. I could write books about Tony because he’s just the most [pauses]... I don’t even know how to put it into words. You know, he’s a luminous human being is Tony, with a wonderful, kind nature and an incredibly baffling sense of humour."

Interesting.

It would be kind of cool to hear what May and Tony have come up with...but unless they are finished songs I can't see this coming out. I don't think there's a lot of market for stuff like that.

It would be fascinating to hear what they’ve come with. I’ll take absolutely anything at this stage. It’s a travesty how little new material we’ve had from Tony the last 20 years.

Heck, I'd even spend 2-3 minutes listening to them tuning their guitars!
