Ozzy Osbourne (Official Thread)

[Lynch]

Currently listening to You Can't Kill Rock and Roll.... possibly my all-time favorite Ozzy track. Something about this song just gets me. Maybe it's because it wasn't overplayed to death like some other early Ozzy tracks.

Love Randy's guitar work, the vocals, the low end. All in all, just a great hard rock track.

Songs like this really make me wonder what else we could have gotten from Randy had he not been on that airplane. Even if he didn't stay with Ozzy, just what other music we could have gotten from him. *sigh*

Ozzy has some good solo albums after Randy and has a few stinker as well . The last one really " sucked balls" IMO.

Some of the great albums were stinkers once remastered too. Should say ''remastered'' more like re-recorded.

I saw Ozzy live recently while on holiday. Was a great show, he's definitely still got it! I'm sad this is his last tour but also glad I got to see him before he retires.

...but then again, he said multiple times on stage that he loves what he's doing and doesn't want to stop

So perhaps this isn't the last tour after all...

Found this disc the other day. Haven't listened to it in several years. Overall, it's a pretty decent tribute album by an all-star cast. One head scratcher on this album is Lisa Loeb singing lead on Goodbye to Romance. Can't figure that one out. She does a good job with it, although it's a bit too "fluffy" for me, especially the closing to the track.

Ozzy still has a Voice.

That is what is most Impressive. Even more so, he is no longer a Front Man for any band.....

Go OZZY!
