Ozzy Osbourne is not someone I know, but I have never had much respect for him untill i was told this my a very reliable source.
Ozzy played for the Queen at a party. One of those you just have to invite the Privy Council to. So after the concert he chats with Charley. Then he is introduced to Blair and his wife. He say hi and leaves them standing there.
Respect, yes I have a new respect for Ozzy now.
I think I may have to now put on some early Sabbath as I make nasty furniture.

you.
Live with it.
When you can last 40 years in the music industry, never have an album that's considered a failure, help create an entire genre of music, then you can take the piss.
His missus has alienated a lot of his fans, but the man himself is beyond criticism. As I said previously, the first 6 Sabbath albums are brilliant. His early solo albums with Randy Rhoads (RIP) are awesome.
Yes, I'm a fan. His wife and kids are not important to me. The fact that he's created some of the finest music ever made is.
bands being what they are, sabbath would have been something else without ozzy. so maybe he was just the noise on the mike, but his presence was sabbath. however in recent years he's become an overdose victim. the dreadful sharon is doing what any mum needs to do to keep the family provided.
Ozzy is a joke and as for Bliar he did a few things that were good and one thing that was bad, guess the bad thing was pretty terrible and he deserves to be marched off to the Hague but lets not forget the minimum wage, working tax credits, funding for environmental projects, moves towards the removal of the house of lords and the realignments for the retirment ages.
Black Sabbath were Black Sabbath because of not in spite of Ozzy, they are inextricably linked, as so many other bands are only as big as the front man which equal's most of them. That's the point of front men in that they give the band image just anything else that's decorated it's there to appeal to others.
And as to whether Sabbath were good? Of course they were whether you like them or not is a personal matter but Sabbath Headed by Ozzy were a phenomenon and phenomenal. I love rock though i will admit to not liking a lot of Sabbath stuff but what I do like I'm sure glad I do. as to Ozzy and if I like him I can't say I've never met him but i find him fantastically charismatic.
Long live rock
