blizzard of ozz

A vinyl-hunting trip on his lunch break would bring this devote metal, punk and hardcore fan a piece of heavy metal history.

This series of events in early 1982 was, by turns, humorous, tragic and downright bizarre.

Ozzy Osbourne' re-issues of his first two albums as a solo artists are out today.  Blizzard Of Ozz and Diary Of A Madman.   These are the albums on which Randy Rhoads played on and the chemistry between Ozzy and Rhoads on these two albums have never been matched.

We reported a couple weeks ago that Ozzy would be doing a special reissue of Blizzard of Ozz this May and along with that a special DVD.  The DVD is an awesome look at Ozzy's career and it's called Thirty Years After The Blizzard.  In this clip Ozzy talks about how his career got going.

May 31st is the date that Ozzy Osbourne plans to re-release two of his most classic albums: Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman. Both will have deluxe editions including live and bonus tracks, while a boxed set features an all-new DVD about the Ozzy/Randy Rhoads era.
