Is easily in Top 5 albums(as in LPs) from the 80s.
I rode my 10 speed to the mall for this treasure in Nov of 1980. Every note and Ozzied lyric I had down pat. You Cant Kill Rock&Roll, from Diary of a Madman (1981) rounds 2 click of the five. Every song hit worthy, they coudnt play them all as hits. But Philly FM radio tried. Blizzard of Ozz(1980) of rules our turntable for about a year.
On a Fisher turntable, Fisher deck and like speakers; I I had found my messiah.
JC Superstar is in the top ten as well before you religious nuts go messiah crazy.
Dont Ask Me, I Don't Know!! Crazy Train are wickedly perfect. A roller coaster of Rhodes blistering licks&fret work tapestried through Ozzies barking lyrics; aâ6know one rocked like Ozzy/Rhodes in the 80s. *RIP Randy.
No Bone Movies is underrated and underplayed.(Station head says play an Ozzy 4 pack ,how do you chose?)
Blizzard of Ozz is easily in the top 5 albums of the decade, the 80s; and it lives on today. On my old 33LP on that 70s stereo; it is heavenly. Rudy laying down base with Aldridge pounding down the beat, enter Rhodes; fingers looking like spiders crawl up and down the guitar neck. Ozzy. Ozzy .Ozzy. Ozzy.
