(Epic-Legacy) Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have done some foolish things over the course of this past decade, from the unceremonious way by which they parted ways with longtime guitarist Zakk Wylde to Sharon’s questionable stint as a judge on America’s Got Talent to that Satan-awful VH-1 reality show of theirs from a few years back. But nothing was quite as irrational as the act of removing the original rhythm section of bassist Bob Daisley and drummer Lee Kerslake from the 2002 reissues of Ozzy’s back-to-back solo masterpieces, 1980’s Blizzard Of Ozz and 1981’s Diary Of A Madman, replacing them with newly recorded tracks by current Metallica bassist Rob Trujillo and Faith No More drummer Mike “Puffy” Bordin, both of whom were part of the former Black Sabbath frontman’s backing band at the time.

It was just another heaping spoonful of added salt to an already festering wound that took place shortly before the original release date of Madman, when Daisley and Kerslake were fired from the camp and replaced by Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge on the album credits and pictured in the group shot on the inner sleeve of the record. This highly controversial move in 2002, however, was the matter of a legal dispute between the musicians and the Osbournes over performance royalties and accreditation in regards to the publishing rights to the music featured on both albums. And when those doctored reissues were released, they were met by a seriously negative reception from the fans, many of whom consider them painful to hear. Not to take away anything from Trujillo and Bordin, an infinitely stronger rhythm section than Daisley and Kerslake ever were who, alongside Wylde, made up arguably the best group Ozzy ever assembled for himself as a solo act.

But to alter two LPs that are universally considered to be amongst the greatest heavy metal albums of all time was equivalent to Ted Turner’s crass decision to colorize such classic black-and-white films as Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon for TBS a while back. Thankfully, these new versions of Blizzard and Diary restore both titles back to their primary forms thanks to a beautiful remastering job from the original analog tapes by George Marino. And, to the record’s benefit, headbanger standards such as Ozz’s “Crazy Train”, “Mr. Crowley” and “Suicide Solution” and Madman’s “Over The Mountain”, “Flying High Again” and “Believer” have never sounded crisper or clearer. Likewise with the fantastical guitar playing of the great Randy Rhoads, whose six-string wizardry was powerful enough to chop the head off Eddie Van Halen, prior to his untimely death on March 19, 1982, the victim of a tragic plane crash at the tender age of twenty-five. The 30th Anniversary expanded edition of Blizzard contains three extra tracks, including the import B-side “Looking At Me, Looking At You”, a special 2010 mix of the ballad “Goodbye to Romance” focusing on just the guitars and vocals, and a previously unreleased Randy solo entitled “RR” that’s every bit as stunning as “Dee”.

Meanwhile, Diary, which actually celebrates its 30th anniversary this year (though it is not commemorated in this package), gets the Legacy Edition treatment that tacks on a second bonus disc boasting 11 scorching live cuts from the Blizzard of Ozz tour. Flanked by the Rhoads/Sarzo/Aldridge lineup, this set captures Ozzy at his ant-snorting, dove-decapitating demonic best. This blistering combo tears through the majority of Blizzard, previews “Flying High Again” and “Believer” and rumbles across a trio of Sabbath nuggets in “Iron Man”, “Children Of The Grave” and “Paranoid” with an edgy rawness that was polished out of the 1987 live document of the Rhoads era, Tribute. Serious Ozzy fans will want to check out the 30th Anniversary Deluxe Collector’s Box Set, which includes both albums on spankin’ new virgin vinyl, all the CDs from the standard editions, a 100-page coffee table book and a replica of Osbourne’s iconic gold cross. But most importantly, you also get a DVD containing a newly produced documentary entitled 30 Years After The Blizzard that chronicles this crucial period in the Osbourne’s career and boasts a solid half-hour of never-before-seen live footage of Ozzy and Randy on stage together. Yet regardless of what your recession-ravaged pocketbook can afford, it is nothing short of a miracle, man, to see these twin tablets of metal mastery finally restored to their original glory and are well worth the reinvestment if you even consider yourself any kind of proper disciple of the Prince of Darkness.
