Ozzy Osbourne – Montreal 1981 (Limited Edition 12-Inch Album on Red Vinyl)

This album showcases Ozzy Osbourne’s blistering gig at the Théâtre Saint-Denis, in Montreal, Quebec, on 28 July 1981, during the Blizzard of Oz Tour.

Featured here, are Ozzy classics such as Crazy Train, Mr. Crowley, Flying High Again, I Don’t Know, Suicide Solution, Revelation (Mother Earth) and Believer, alongside an awesome rendition of Black Sabbath’s legendary Paranoid, and more.

Consisting mostly of material from his debut solo studio album, Blizzard of Oz, and what became his second album Diary of a Madman, the Blizzard of Oz Tour clearly demonstrated the excitement Ozzy was creating with his solo project.

The rhythm section of bassist Rudy Sarzo and drummer Tommy Aldridge was rock solid, but it was the innovative guitar work of the mighty Randy Rhoads that made this period in Osbourne’s career so important.

What makes this performance particularly special, is that it is one of the few professional live recordings made of Ozzy and Rhoads on stage together prior to his tragic death in March 1982.
