Pre-Order Ozzy’s “Scream” Album
Coming next month is Ozzy’s 10th studio album, entitled “Scream”. Fortunately renamed from the awful working title it had (Soul Sucka), this album is the first with a new guitarist in over 20 years. As you may recall a few years back, Ozzy toured with a guy by the name of Joe Holmes, and tried […]
Ozzy’s Blizzard & Diary Albums – 30th Anniversary Editions
