Today's Morning Editon music is from "Paranoid" by Black Sabbath who will be playing Monday at Target Center in Minneapolis.

Three of the four original band members who first got together in Birmingham, England, back in 1968 will be be performing. They say this is the last time Black Sabbath will tour in part because guitarist Tony Iommi has been battling cancer.

They started out calling themselves the Polka Tulk Blues Band, then Earth before finally settling on the name Black Sabbath, which was inspired by the title of a 1963 Boris Karlov horror film.
