OT - RIP Ozzy

[inkman]

I’d say Paranoid is top 10 rock song all time.  Maybe best metal song ever. It’s certainly in the conversation.

Back in the ‘70s there was a Rochester band called Buzzo’s Bandits.  Was at the Penny Arcade one night and they had a heavy set lead singer who came out for the second set all wrapped up in tin foil and went into Iron Man.  Hilarious.

Huge loss....

Saw him at Ozzfest at Darien Lake (2008?). Played on the 2nd stage at like 2 in the afternoon and did about an hour long set... it was great. Closed with Crazy Train.

The woke culture. Fingers crossed.

RIP Ozzy . 

What a weirdo thing to say... 

 

Anyway, Ozzy was a one of a kind man and he will be missed.

Local radio station just played Sweet Leaf, this song represents the rock and roll lifestyle that Sabbath was all about plus a basic, thunderous sound.

Little known Ozzy fact....

He didn't get his license until 61.

He failed his driving test 19 previous times. 

Mr. Tinkertrain no doubt the creepiest of his songs. 

He joined Black Sabbath in 1968 and must of only been like 16, they were pretty popular shortly after so he has been a celebrity his entire adult life. So no need to drive himself I guess
