Re: OZZY fires ZAKK??

This happened a few months ago,

I love Zakk Wylde, I think his best albums were No More Tears and Pride and Glory, The first Ozzy album he did No rest For the Wicked is really amazing and he was only 19. Now his style has changed a lot to fit with BLS and I understand that the new Ozzy album sounds a bit like BLS. However, why did Ozzy replace Zakk with a guy that plays exactly like Zakk? Listen to the GusG with Ozzy and you'll hear the guy is a Zakk clone. I used to really like Ozzy but its hard to respect a guy who re-recorded his first two albums so he wouldn't have to pay the original musicians royalties and someone who basically whored himself out to reality television just to make money. He also recently sued Tony Iommi so he can't use the name Black Sabbath. Its not even the first time he fired Zakk, he fired him back in 95 cos Axl asked him to join GNR and Ozzy got jealous.

If anyone wants to really know about Ozzy read Rudy Sarzos book Off the Rails. Sorry for going off at Ozzy, I love his music but as a person I don't think hes that great of a guy.
