Diary of a Madman vs Blizzard of Oz


Was listening to Diary... last night and its so much better than Blizzard...

Yet there are those who insist that Blizzard is better. Other than "Mr. Crowley" Blizzard isn't very good. "Crazy Train" has a great intro but falls flat as soon
as it's over.

Not really a fan of the recordings on either album. I usually listen to Tribute when I sample this era of Ozzy.

Remember that video he did with midgets? If its still on YouTube it probably won't be there much longer.

Blizzard of Ozz

I just love Ozzy, full stop.

Hmm, good one, taking me back to my youth...tough one, but I’ll go Madman...yeah, Blizz had the popular and memorable single entries, but I prefer madman....plus, it’s the last with Randy Rhoads, so some sentimentality comes into play for me....most importantly, it features my favorite Ozzy song...

Unfortunately, couldn’t quickly find a Rhoads clip for the song, I think this is Brad Gillis or Bernie Torme, can’t tell...admittedly, I’m not too familiar with those dudes...

The YouTube app doesn't work on my phone. What song is it?

reply

Flying high again...I always forget Gillis played with Ozzy for a bit...I don’t know much at all about Torme...
