Album Notes
Personnel: Ozzy Osbourne (vocals); Randy Rhoads (guitar); Don Airey (keyboards); Bob Daisley (bass, gong, background vocals); Lee Kerslake (drums, percussion, tubular bells, timpani); Mark Lennon, John Shanks (background vocals).Producers: Ozzy Osbourne, Bob Daisley, Lee Kerslake, Randy Rhoads.Recorded between March 22 & April 19, 1980. Includes liner notes by Phil Alexander.Digitally remastered by Stephen Marcussen (Marcussen Mastering).Personnel: Ozzy Osbourne (vocals); Bob Daisley (vocals, bass guitar, gong); Randy Rhoads (guitar); Don Airey (keyboards); Robert Trujillo (bass guitar); Lee Kerslake (drums, timpani, tubular bells, percussion); Mike Bordin (drums, percussion, gong); Danny Saber (tubular bells); John Shanks, Mark Lennon (background vocals).Audio Remasterer: Stephen Marcussen.Audio Remixers: German Villacorta; Thom Panunzio.Liner Note Author: Phil Alexander.Recording information: Ridge Farm Studio (03/22/1980-04/??/1980).Photographers: Mark Weiss; Ross Halfin; Neal Preston; Fin Costello; Paul Natkin.After the quiet implosion of Black Sabbath, the wise money was not on former vocalist, Ozzy, being the one to redeem himself musically. However, with shrewd management by his wife and a hotshot Californian in the shape of ex-Quiet Riot guitarist, Randy Rhoads, he reinvented himself and his musical persona, and created a startling debut album. Combining Rhoads' impetuous flurries of heavily stylized guitar, his own series of lyrical caricatures--"Crazy Train" and "Revelation (Mother Earth)"--and a healthy dose of controversy, citing renowned satanist Aleister Crowley as the subject matter for "Mr. Crowley," he ensured himself acclaim and commerciality in equal measure.

Ozzy Osbourne w Randy Rhoads - Blizzard of Ozz CD rocks

Created: 17/12/05
I never tire of this solo debut from the ex Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne who joined up with Randy Rhoads one of the greatest guitar players ever,

Do you really have to read a review to decide on this rock n roll classic ?

Great drum intro on this hardrock classic - I Don't Know - featuring one of the greatest guitar solos ever by one of the best guitarest that ever lived Randy Rhoads.

Next Ozzy's Biggest Hit - Crazy Train -

My mother objected to Ozzy till she heard - Goodbye to Romance - at which time she guessed it was the Beatles. It is about Ozzy saying good bye to Black Sabbath.

Randy Rhoads brings on his classical roots on the short acoustic track- Dee - which is a tribute to his mother.

The once contreversial - Suicide Solution - which is about Bon Scott of AC/DC and how alcohol killed him.

The errie - Mr. Crowley - about Alister Crowley the infamous satanist.

No Bone Movies - the song about Ozzy's dislike of pornography.

Revelation( Mother Earth ) - a very underated tune that really moves you

Steal Away the Night - will leave you wanting more.

Thankfully on the The remastered Blizzard of Ozz CD you get the bonus track of - You Lookin' At Me Lookin' At You - which was previously only available as a bonus on the live ep.

Another bonus is the remastered improved sound ( not that there was anything wrong with it to start with )

I encourge everyone to get this classic CD.

This is a must own and regarded by most to be the greatest Ozzy Osbourne Album.

TRIBUTE TO A ROCK GOD

Created: 27/03/06
This album takes me back to a simpler time in my life, a younger time when things were much easier. All I had to worry about was that next big project & grade at school, & the next BIG PARTY with my friends!!
Who can't help but to agree that OZZY RULZ!! & He always will!!
In my opinion Ozzy leaving Black Sabbath was the greatest thing that OZZY could ever do, & this first in a long line of albums is by far one of his best, so full of messages & words to live by.
I also agree with other reviewers that Randy Rhoads one of the best guitarists of all time also deserves alot of the credit for helping OZZY to grow into the ROCK GOD that he is, but I also think that Sharron Osbourne deserves a considerable amount of that credit as well.

My ALL TIME favorite Ozzy album!

Created: 03/07/07
This is my all time favorite Ozzy album. It brings me back to my high school days when BIG HAIR was in and METAL was all there was. (Yes I had big hair). I had the 8 track, the cassette, the album and the CD. This album doesn't have any bad songs on it. There is a great variety of sound from loud hardcore guitars to beautiful acoustics. There are only 9 songs on this album. I recommend listening to all 10 of them. (Yes, I know what I said.) The guitar work on this album is simply masterful. This album also underwent a TREMENDOUS amount of criticism. Anyone who ever litened to or read the lyrics to Ozzy's music would know that he truly is a talented writer. And the "monsterous Prince Of Fn' Darkness" was a front for publicity. I am not denying Ozzy is a little off. But he truly is a beautiful man. And if you LISTEN to his words he will make you think about a thing or two. Enjoy!
