OZZY OSBOURNE

Release Year: 2002
Artist Origin: ENG
Style: expressive rebelious heavy metal/hardrock

another turning point [1988] in Ozzy's solo career is first and foremost marked with addition of virtuoso guitarist Zakk Wylde who has brought in a much heavier sound, but in spite of that the songwriting has again drifted away from rebellious heavy metal to a more hardrock and glam oriented direction with anthemic, bombastic feel to the choruses; however, such arenas-attracting formula was what music admirers were looking for in the late eighties, so memorable and catchy tunes were unanimously accepted by wild fans and music media alike, bringing the admired rocker yet more deserved glory; recent European re-issue comes with a remastered sound and two rare bonuses, including live version of Miracle Man
