I love Ozzy, but why the box set?

Not to say that his career doesn't desreve on at this point, but it's a strange and dissapointing tracklisting that doesn't include the hits and has just a strange essblance of demo and live songs (why?). And I would just avoid it by all means but the catch is a whole new CD full of covers...why isn't it sold seperately? I can only assume for the same reason "Shot In the Dark" is left off yet Ozzy compliation (anyone remember the "Essentail Ozzy", which was all album tracks of his and nothing from other sources, like his hit deut with Lita Ford or anything else?) and that reason is because Sharon is kind of a bitch! I'll get it but pray I don't have to pay more than $30 for it. Such a rip off!

Vinny, I dig Ozzy's voice. He definitely can sing his ass off and belt out song rock tunes for sure. I don't know what's up w/ the Lita Ford situation. However, I do recall that there is some bad blood between Lita and Osborns b/c Sharon used to be her manager which would explain why she is not on the compiliation CD perhaps. I would have to agree with you that Sharon is a shrew buisiness women w/a lot of balls.

Box sets are a matter of course these days. After 25 years Ozzy almost has to release one. I'm not sure what the track list is, but if it's just the same tracks rehashed again his fans should be pissed. And an Ozzy covers album? I'm not so sure about that!
