Ozzy Osbourne - TRANSMISSION IMPOSSIBLE (3CD) Compact Disc - 3 CD Box Set

Ozzy Osbourne, born in 1948 in Solihull, West Midlands, became a founding member of Black Sabbath in 1968, providing lead vocals for their self-titled debut album in 1970 until Never Say Die! in 1978. The band was highly influential in the development of heavy metal, in particular their critically acclaimed releases Paranoid, Master of Reality, and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath. Osbourne was fired from Sabbath in 1979 due to alcohol and drug problems. He then began a successful solo career with Blizzard of Ozz in 1980 and has released 13 studio albums, the first seven of which received multi-platinum certifications in the US. He has since reunited with Black Sabbath on several occasions. He rejoined in 1997 and helped record the group's final studio album, 13 (2013), before they embarked on a farewell tour that ended with a 2017 performance in their native Birmingham. His longevity and success have earned him the informal title of the "Godfather of Metal". DISC ONE was recorded at the Metropolitan Sports Center, Bloomington, MN, on 15th January 1982, while the band was still touring Ozzy’s second album, Diary Of A Madman, and when the legendary Randy Rhoads was still in the group prior to his tragic death in March ’82.  DISC TWO features a show played in Tokyo in June 1984 performed while touring the Bark At The Moon record, and one of six dates in the Far East while on the tour.  DISC THREE concludes this superb live collection with an Ozzfest performance from 2003, played at the Tweeter Center, in Camden, NJ, on 7th August 2003.
