I fancy having a listen to some old ozzy, never done so before, can any 'fan' recommend me an album to purchase?

Ta

You can't go wrong with this CD (http://www.play.com/play247.asp?page=title&r=CD&title=143698&p=34&g=48&pa=sr) i bought it about three weeks ago

anything with randy rhodes on guitar....when he died ozzy's music became very very average.

essential tracks: crazy train, mr crowley, paranoid (live version), shot in the dark


enjoy

are you wanting ozzy solo stuff or with black sabbath

just get the The Essential Ozzy Osbourne album
its 2 cds lots of great tracks

diary of a madman is a good one to start off with or the live one he did , speak of the devil:)

but the essential oz one should cover all his best stuff

Yep have to agree with jon with this one,this album is very good.half of the songs on the album i never hear off.I had it over a year but i dint buy mine tho :blush: but i still play it a lot.

The best ozzy albums are in this order

1) Blizzard of ozz 1980
2) Diary of a madman 1981
3) Bark at the moon 1983

when you've listened to them a few times, then get Tribute, which is a tribute to randy rhoads, the brilliant guitarist who died in a stupid accident so young.

To be quite honest before going onto the other ozzy albums, first listen to some black sabbath.

I second that!! :) :headbang:

Anything ozzy is cool:headbang: i know of one bad album, maybe when randy rhodes was on guitar his music was better but, altogether hes the best... id just go for The Essential Ozzy Osbourne album bits of everything....
:cool:

You'd be best off with any sort of Greatest Hits album. Some of his earlier album tracks weren't the best he's done.

Then again, I think songs he's done are good, but his voice really grates on me.

Owt with 'No More Tears' on it. That is such a fantastic song!
