Classic album tampering...thanks Sharon

Review Score: (6/10)
This is a classic album that should have been left alone. Ozzy has admitted numerous times that he knows nothing of the music business, so who do we blame for this? His manager Sharon. She replaced Bob Daisley's bass playing with Robert Trujillo's and Lee Kerslakes' drumming with Mike Bordin. I'm sorry but I see no point in this and it's a rip-off to the fans. Sharon probably didn't want to pay these two any royalties or something. But what if she had replaced Randy Rhodes with Zakk Wylde? THAT would have caused a riot at any OzzFest. Sharon knew if she did that she'd have hell to pay, not only from Randy's mom, but every longtime Ozzy fan.

I'll admit the album itself sounds great, but that's no excuse. I can hear differences in the bass and drums when I compare it to my old vinyl copy, but for the most part the playing is identical. Shame on you Sharon, not only for tampering with classic albums, but for now making his Ozzness a walking, talking joke on MTV.
