With this collection of songs Ozzy gives us a glimpse into his music’s evolution. While other artists tend to stick to one “safe” sound formula for their albums, often churning out CD after CD of the same ol’ thing, Ozzy alters his sound with each release. Sometimes this works to great effect like the evolution between “Diary of a Madman” and” Bark at the Moon” or he misses the mark like 1989’s “No Rest for the Wicked”. - aG
