Farewell Ozzy. He was definitely one of a kind.
ReplyDeleteOzzy crossed so many channels, and in a way that most of his rock contemporaries couldn't even hope to.
DeleteVol.4, Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage are my favourite albums. I saw the band for the first time on the delayed Sabotage tour in early 1976 and then once again on the Never Say Die tour in 1978, though by then my general listening habits were changing dramatically.
ReplyDeleteWow, that must have been quite something! I didn't listen to a Black Sabbath album in full until the 21st century. I was into other music and even the teen metal heads I went to school with were more interested in Iron Maiden and AC/DC. Glad I got there eventually, though!
