Music

Ozzy_osbourne I've been a fan of Ozzy Osbourne's since 1975, when Black Sabbath's Sabotage was released. I saw Black Sabbath in concert at Cobo Arena in Detroit in the late 1970s. (The opening act was Uriah Heep.) In 1981, while I was in law school, I saw Ozzy in concert (his guitarist was Randy Rhoads) at the Pine Knob Music Theater in suburban Detroit. (The opening act was Def Leppard.) This was the last concert I attended with my friend Keith Basherian, who died, tragically, in 1982. Recently, my friend Jeff, who knows one of Ozzy's band members, arranged to have Ozzy sign a promotional photograph for me. I just scanned it into my computer. What do you think? (Click the image to enlarge it.)

Addendum: Here, for your evening pleasure, is "Mr. Tinkertrain," from No More Tears (1991):

I looked at the inscription that Ozzy wrote. Who is "KeitL"? This guy?:

Maybe Ozzy is orthographically challenged.
