Some very good picks on your list Riff Raff....though I have to wonder why of all of Ozzy's albums you picked "Black Rain". Speaking from my point of view, I think it's his worst solo effort by a good margin.

Not sure why but I personally favoured that album over a lot of his stuff, maybe when Ive got more of his albums, I have about 3 I might rate them higher
I tend to like a lot of albums most people dont, not for that reason but nevertheless lol
