Hmm, yes, that's right -- someone mentioned as much here the other  
day, to the effect that Geezer was really only involved with writing  
"Neon Knights" (so the info at <http://www.black-sabbath.com/discog/ 
heavenandhell.html> claims also).  Though there's a stage banter  
comment from Dio on the  recent Radio City Music Hall live Heaven &  
Hell gig about the song "Lady Evil" in which he seems to attribute a  
significant role in that song to Geezer.  Not sure what to make of  
that, really.

Cheers,
Carl
