Listening to Ozzy Osbourne's "No More Tears". Ask me anything.

1. The title track was pure genius.

No one could replace Randy Rhoads, but that's not the point. Randy Rhoads wasn't meant to replace Tony Iommi.

But in terms of an "appropriate" collaborator for Ozzy, Zakk Wylde was it.

Brad "Night Ranger" Willis is an idiot, a no-talent shredding HUMP. Night Ranger is a good place for him. I can't even remember the names of the guitarists who followed Rhoads other than Zakk Wylde.

But Wylde...and "No More Tears"...raised Ozzy back to the level of "greatness." It's one of the best Ozzy tracks of all time, and it's a masterpiece.

This is probably the last "great" Ozzy album.

3. Jake E. Lee was between Randy and Zakk.

He played on "Bark at the Moon" and "The Ultimate Sin".

4. Yes, I forgot...

...and in my opinion (just my opinion...not trying to inflict it on anyone else...)

Those albums reflect "treading water."

In terms of Ozzy's "greatness," you have:

1). Black Sabbath

2). Randy Rhoads

3). Zakk Wylde

...and did I mention Brad Gillis is a no-talent hump?

Yeah, I guess I did.

"You're motoring, but what's your price for flight"...my ASS!

:evilgrin:

2. Do you have any more tears?

Seems to me he should deliver on that, or the entire piece of work is a failure.
