One of my two favorite Sabbath albums. The best they did with Ozzy!!! vocals, lyrics, production, Tony’s phrasing🤘💪😍. 3 hours ago, T&C said: Yeah, the classic rock stations just play the same ***** over and over. Finding a station with deep cuts is better or a college station. We have 88.5 here and they are pretty diverse.

But if we must have a halftime music show I'll take my chances with way-over-the-hill Ozzy over a lot of other choices. LAMP time - good marching bands aren't confined to college.

I am a pretty smart guy but I am music dumb. I know what I like and I have high standards but can't explain why. There is this guy, Rick Beato, who has a Youtube channel that features music of this era. He is about our age and is from Fairport which means it's likely members here at TBD have some personal connection to him. He dissects great music down to it's elemental parts in an attempt to demonstrate what makes it great. I feel smarter after watching his material. Here is an example: What makes this song great Not much of what I hear today measures up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babulator Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Ozzy loves to perform live, dare I say it's what he lives for. He'll perform well, much like Mick does after all these years. He'll perform well, he'll be surrounded by uber talented musicians, he'll play the melody of his classics, it'll be worth a watch. 🤘 I saw Ozzy and Crew @ the Aud around 87' or 88', so it's been a while.

The eagles were playing and he said they were all instructed to never look any of the members in the eye if they were walking past them. That is pretty dickish. Both bass players were from Poco, the Eagles farm team basically. The countrified California rock of the early 70’ was evolving with Grateful Dead, Jackson Brown, Stone Canyon Band (Rick Nelson), Nesmith’s First National Band, Linda Ronstadt, and Poco among others. The Eagles early recording were the most successful of that group. Man, we’re getting way off track here, but anyway, I can do without these acts who had hits 50 years ago and whose voices are shot but now charge $300 at live shows so we can bask in their history. The Eagles, Skynyrd (and others) are effectively tribute bands since each has only one remaining member from the days of their early success. I’m eagerly anticipating the rematch of the surviving members of the 90s Bills and 90s Cowboys. That would be right up there with watching and listening to Ozzy.

Hotel California is one of dozens of hits that made the Eagles rich. Most were written by Frey and/or Henley. If there was most-expendable original member, it was Felder. I will agree that they (original lineup) all seem(ed) like d!cks. Edited September 3, 2022 by Gugny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock icon and we are losing them yearly. If you were a fan and prefer to keep those memories pure from the 80's I totally get that. I would want to see him perform now because he will give it his all. And in his situation I think that is brave too. Noone wants to see a broken parody of who he was. I predict he will hella bring it the best he can. Edited September 3, 2022 by muppy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet a large chunk of Ozzie's income is capital gains so taxed far less than personal income from other sources. UK with 45% personal income tax, plus local tax (say, London--1.5%), plus council tax plus 20% VAT on purchases. Cali is expensive though.

Freak-O Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 Since they play his song Crazy Train at pretty much every sports event in the US it might be fun for the audience to hear him live.
