Ozzy Osbourne

Diary of a Madman

Tragedy in every sense of the word!

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (2/10)
I'm absolutely stunned by what Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne has done to a true metal masterpiece. I, like many diehard Randy Rhoads fans, went out and bought it, thinking that it would sound better than the original 95 remastered version, not to mention, the "extra" track that lured me into buying this garbage(the extra track, by the way, is the same live version you will find on TRIBUTE. You go figure) Boy, was I wrong. Everything about this (re)released album sounds atrociously bad! The title track, which if you listen to the acoustic part near the end of the song, you'll notice the drum is way out of sync, heavy I might add. The greatest injustice done to the integrity of the album was the eclipsing of Randy's legendary screaming guitar tone. It's an insult to Randy's legacy. I mean the guitar solo part in the end of the title track was droned out and sounds like cr*p! Every song on this CD was basically MURDERED! If you listen to the 95 version, it is like night and day.

Bottom line: the Osbournes have gotten very greedy, very sad.
Please, go out and buy the 95 original Sony 22-bit remastered version. This one blows the cr*ppy new version away!

terrible re-recording

The rythm section that replaces the original is good, in time, but not an inch more than that. Just average good musicians.
