Dio was one hell of a singer, but Sabs wasn't Sabs without Ozzy for me. No doubt the album will be great for those who like Dio-era Sabbath.
Yeah, the original line-ups are always what we adore. But the Mob rules is just incredible. I also like Ozzy's Shot in the dark album.
Mob Rules wasn't bad. It was certainly better than the dreck that followed later in the 80s. But to my ears, Dio sounds like a singer, while Ozzy sounds like a preacher, if that makes sense.
I read that some critic said Dio sang and the band followed, and With Ozzy the band played and Ozzy followed. Anyway, I think both were wonderful characters although Ozzy's live performance was quite rigid...
And finally it is here....truly excellent. I read in a music paper that the band played and Ozzy followed, whereas Dio sang and the band followed????
