I love Ozzy era Sabbath because when Ozzy left the music started to become just straight Metal, whereas early Sabbath albums sound more musically diverse. Also Ozzy has in my opinion one of the finest most interesting voices in Metal. Ozzy solo albums are a bit of a mixed bag. His first two are brilliant. After that he wrote some brilliant songs but the albums themselves weren't consistant and he appeared to be more concerned with following trends and keeping up then making albums that stood the test of time. His last album 'Down To Earth' was quite good. Dispite the occasional cringeworthy lyric and the fact that his voice isnt in greatest shape the record was brilliant because it was Ozzy finally not giving two shits and sheadding off his 80's madman personna. It was actually a very touching record (not a word usually used to describe Ozzy)
