@@peacethroughstrength172yeah I am surprised he is still alive taking drugs drinking alcohol with it that's why he his f***** up today all the s***he took. He has lucky to be alive.
Yeah, and when Ozzy started out alone in 1980, it was his new bass player who wrote his "solo" music. Thank Bob Daisley for most of the stuff from his first couple/few albums.
@HighlanderNorth1 Yes! Much love to Bob Daisley. I respect the hell out of the bloke. His book "For Facts Sake" is one of my favorites. I love Geez as well. Fabulous musician and lyricist. I'm currently reading his new book. By the way, don't forget about Bob Daisley on Black Sabbath "Eternal Idol" and Ozzy "No Rest for the Wicked" He wrote most of the lyrics on those albums as well. Both in the same year. 1987. Cheers. 🙂

Bullshit. Ozzy does not have any claim to the name black sabbath... he was the first one out. Tony, Geezer and Bill have produced more Sabbath albums without Ozzy than with him!
Morally, Ozzy had no claim to the name Black Sabbath, but Iommi was the sole owner and he gave half the name to the Osbournes because Sharon demanded that in order for the reunion of the original line-up to take place in the late 90s. Tony knew that, even with only half ownership, he’d make more money than ever off the reunion and he certainly did. That’s why the Dio line-up with Vinnie Appice on drums was called Heaven & Hell afterwards. Sharon wouldn’t allow Tony (or anyone) to do anything under the name Black Sabbath without Ozzy.
@crusheverything4449 Tony Iommi and Ozzy Osborne are 50/50 co- owners of the name Black Sabbath. If three original members participate in the band it can be called Black Sabbath the agreement was reached out of court between Tony and Ozzy. Geezer Butler,Tommy Clufetos and Adam Wakeman were paid employees for Black Sabbath.
@@12babyapes59 From that 70s era. They did better albums later even if they couldn't match the number of amazing singles they still did some great ones.
Tony wrote the riffs, Ozzy wrote the melody lines. I think Ozzy's silly antics for the last few decades have tarnished the bands legacy but Ozzy is as much a part of the classic Sabbath sound as any of the members.
While Ozzy’s contributions (his unique voice and signature vocal melodies) can’t be discounted when it comes to the original Black Sabbath, there’s much more to Sabbath than the Ozzy era. While some people refuse to recognize anything without Ozzy as Sabbath or anything without Ozzy or Dio as Sabbath, the band made a damn good record with Ian Gillan and four damn good ones with Tony Martin. There’s also a decent one with Glenn Hughes on vocals. They’re all Black Sabbath albums, whether anyone likes it or not, including me. To my ears, the true Sabbath sound comes from the combination of Iommi’s guitar and Geezer’s bass. Those are the two key ingredients. When you hear it, you think, “There it is!” Many bands have tried to replicate it, but none has succeeded. You’re not gonna out-Sabbath those two guys.
Sharon saw a person in crisis & knew if she could latch onto Ozzy, he could become her cash cow. Get him into rehab, get him thinking differently & then go in for the kill.
Greedy people expect you to feel sorry for them when their health fails. Him and the witch screwed everyone they came in contact with. Karma.......live with it.
That may be said of Sharon, but not Ozzy. Just because he's married to her doesn't mean he's greedy and screwing over the rest of the band. Remember, she was dicking Randy Rhoads when he was alive and who knows who afterwards. That's why I didn't particularly give a damn when Ozzy was playing around with the nanny, lol.
@@helkas3316Maybe he didn't personally instigate certain incidences, but he certainly didn't put his foot down in defense of his backing musicians which makes him complicit.

Everyone screws everyone else once they make it. Ozzy got screwed over by his management. DIO put the screws to Vivian. Jake probably screwed his band over too. Read you contract. If you don't like it, don't sign it. No sympathy from me if you signed it and have buyers remorse.
Exactly. There’s no possible way I’d let my wife fuck my friends and/or business associates over the way Sharon has done to Ozzy’s. Ozzy should’ve put on his big boy pants decades ago!
Yes, but she Fd over Lee Kerslake and Bob Daisley, Blizzard Of Oz, was a band, but Sharon was greedy, she basically broke the band up, and turned it into Ozzy, and hired guns.
Some people are confused but Heavy Metal started with Sabbath, Although the term didn't get coined until '74 just before the start of the NWOBHM movement.
Well there are probably a couple 8 year olds in a hut on a small island in the Pacific who likely don't know about Sabbath. So thats who the line is meant for...
BASS Probably got edited out to fit this boring speed up narrative, why the hell can't they just have a normal sounding dialog narrative that doesn't fuck up a peaceful day for people with epilepsy or add.
Yes modern "taste" in music has degraded to this point, where anything with strings is either a guitar or banjo haha:( but these devices are destroying regular music too, because you can't really even hear the bass depth of tunes like black sabbath on these gadgets. Not like the bass is supposed tobe heard, and that erodes the character of musical art IMO.
I'm an ol' geezer from the sixties and seventies... and I don't get Ozzy. He doesn't write lyrics... can't play an instrument... and he's like a goofy cartoon character. Yam I right? Peace on earth.
'Yam alright'- I like it! I just watch 'The End' dvd and feel grateful for all the amazing music they've produced. And they're all having such fun together (except for poor old Bill of course😔)...
It has been my experience that when women decide to hold a grudge, it is forever. Men can let it go after a while, get back together and laugh about it. "What were we mad about? Who knows. forget about it". Women on the other hand "What were we mad about? I don't know, but I still hate you for whatever it was"
Sharon and Ozzy became insanely greedy over the years. When the reunion happened years ago, Sharon and Ozzy dictated the share of the tour money would go as: Ozzy 60% Tony/Geezer 15% each, and Bill 10% Rightfully feeling insulted, Bill told them to pound sand. Imagine ruining a GOAT tour because of pure greed.
I'm disappointed in Ozzy or should I say Sharon or both? Ozzy didn't make it to the top by his lonesome, Geezer was there too> That's really a shame, I expected more out Ozzy than that. SHAME ON YOU OZZY. I'm a little disappointed in Tony Iommi too. But like cut throat father like cut throat daughter, Sharon has pulled a whopper on the band. The Yoko Ono of Black Sabbath.
But Tony Iommi is a dickhead too, even Ozzy says it and he ought to know, he's a career dickhead too but cocaine and ego destroyed black sabbath as much as crooked agents n managers like Ozzy's wife. But you can't blame her IMO, she's getting what she can for their families future n right or wrong that's what you'd expect her to do.
I have to say he would’ve probably drank himself to death and been the forgotten former lead vocalist of Black Sabbath if it wasn’t for Sharon. Perhaps some of her business dealings are less than appealing, based on what we know, but she brought Ozzy to heights he would have never reached without her.
Ozzy's insane because he threw a T.V. out of a hotel window? Yeah like no other rock star has ever done that. How about because he shot all of his wife's cats or that he tried to kill Sharon or biting the head off a dove at a press conference? No, because he threw a T.V. out a window.
ha, thats nothing , he snorted a line of ants , thinking it was cocaine, or took a dump in hotel elevator in the late 70s , , or smearing his shit all over hotel walls. yes this happened.
You are rite. Im just sorry that Randy Rhodes fell into the sharon ozzy orbit. We may have got more guitar sounds from randy if he got with another band or stayed w qr a bit longer.
"She even managed Ozzy's solo career for a bit?" She's been his manager since day one, and still is. I hate it when people who don't know shit try to act like they do, lol.
Tony was given sole copywrites to the name in court,the judge said since Iommi kept the band going after all the original members split,he deserved it.
I have stopped following Ozzy for many years now and even more after knowing how the late great Lee Kerslake was treated. Black Sabbath were doing fine with Tony Martín ........and should have kept on that path. I never liked the reunión with Ozzy.
Bob Daisly and Lee Kerslake was treated like shit. BUT Lee got his platinum discs for his work on Blizzard and Diary prior to his death. RIP Lee Kerslake. Way to go ozzy….
The authentic Sabbath signature sound comes from Iommi’s guitar AND Geezer’s bass. Tony made some good records without Geezer, but they don’t sound like Sabbath.
@@PaulFormentos - Whatever Yoko brought to John’s life was John’s responsibility. She wouldn’t have been so influential if John hadn’t welcomed her input and insisted on having her with him 24/7. There’s a reason John called her “Mother”.
Plus, Rudy Sarzo confirmed that Ozzy punched Randy Rhoads when Randy told Ozzy he wanted to stop touring and pursue studying Classical music. Sharon is one greedy person. The fact that Randy didn't really want to fly that day really makes it even worse. Plus the pilot was all coked out. Sad
As tragic as Randy’s death was and is, nobody forced him to get on the plane. The disgusting part is the coked-up pilot who acted like a stupid kid and killed two people and himself, while destroying someone’s home.
@ryansettani9189 : Apparently Sharon is greasy AF and this is why Rhoads was only paid $500 per week. Just imagine playing before huge crowds plus your guitar on records for $500 per week. I guess Rhoads was unknown when he was hired but what a scam.
Interesting. I always wondered how much Rhoads made every week on tour. I know that Sharon's brother David promised Bernie Torme $2k per week and Sharon said no way - you'll get $500.
@silversurfstudio : I only know that Rhoads was basically an "employee" and as such, was just paid $500 per week. An even more disgusting example is the $700 fee per show that was paid to Dave Lombardo of Slayer. I guess the only way musicians get paid properly is if they are considered an equal partner in the band otherwise they are just an employee.
They all played a part in the bands original success however Iommi was the sound of the band, it was his riffs along with Geezer's lyrics during that classic era that sealed the foundations of their success. Iommi and Butler should really have owned it together.
I don't think there are many popular bands that don't look back with nostalgia on the time when they were on the road to success, because once they achieve that, disagreements arise and the rut sets in.
When they (Sabbath), were getting ready to do that last big tour... they (Ozzy & Tony) offered Bill Ward $500k total to do the tour. Not that, that money is light but.... Ozzy & Tony got like $20 million EACH. Bill Ward said fu*k off on principle. I highy doubt they gave the stand in on drums that same $500k.
Black Sabbath basically layed the foundation for what we know as heavy metal music today? No the Jimi Hendrix Experience did and a reviewer of one of his concert described it as heavy metal falling from the sky of which is where the name heavy metal came from
I got to 1:08 and as a fan I know the reality of what you are glossing over. There was no point in going any further. "You could even say that they were pioneers". Really? Geezer was a guitar player? Ozzy was impressed? They were absolutely pioneers, Geezer was the bassist/lyricist and Ozzy had an ad looking for a gig.
this happened to a lot of bands, the ones that held it together better, and didn't piss it all away, or had a ruthless wife, whos daddy was her soon to be husbands former bands manager, who ripped them off for a decade....
Ozzy’s luck is crazy. He was never a singer until he joined Black Sabbath. Just look at his range between their self titled and albums like Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage. Amazing vocalist. He very well could’ve ended up in a Birmingham factory for all we know
Would love to hear Mr Butler Geezer.. write another song about all this ..He wrote all most all the songs for the original Black Sabbath..love some black Sabbath .. original. Ozzy bill tony Butler g.
Sharon Osbourne’s moral compass is a lot like Bobby Knight. In other words, if I do one good deed on a certain day it gives me the currency to be a douchebag on another day. Sharon saved Ozzy’s life, stood by him, and made him a prolonged icon. So evidently, she felt since she had been a good human being in one area, it was ok be a total toxic human being in another area. Yeah. Consider the source.
I heard similar. The band and Ozzy had ads out simultaneously. They almost dismissed Ozzy because he was just a school kid they used to see hanging around. But they jammed and realized he could sing. Something like that. Great band and any of them out of the equation (like The Beatles) wouldn't have been as great. Also...Geezer is THE man!!
Geezers lyrics are really pertinent to life , posing questions & pointing out realities that lots of people dont want to or cant deal with . Glad they all made it , in spite of being screwed over & losing buckets of life force in dealing with greedy ,cunning liars including Ozzys bitch wife . They were a great , original band !
It’s always greed isn’t it. Each member is only famous because of the band dynamics. Black Sabbath is why they are famous. If it wasn’t for the band, they might all still be working in a factory. Ozzie on his own couldn’t have toured America if it hadn’t been for Black Sabbath. They should be sharing everything equally. But when gold is flashed before your face, you have a decision to make between loyalty and morals and selfishness. Greed always spoils everything.
Of course Sharon is to blame. That’s been a common occurrence since she first came into the picture. She’s a snobby nepo baby who saw dollar signs in Ozzy and used it to her advantage.
When people say Ozzy is possessed by the devil, it pretty much means married to Sharon.
🤣🤣🤣
She's a big reason why Bill refused to agree to the contract he was offered on Sabbaths last tour.
LOL, but she is why Oz has about 300 mil in the bank and is alive so.....

Interesting. I always wondered how much Rhoads made every week on tour. I know that Sharon's brother David promised Bernie Torme $2k per week and Sharon said no way - you'll get $500.
@silversurfstudio : I only know that Rhoads was basically an "employee" and as such, was just paid $500 per week.
An even more disgusting example is the $700 fee per show that was paid to Dave Lombardo of Slayer.
I guess the only way musicians get paid properly is if they are considered an equal partner in the band otherwise they are just an employee.
Why is $700 for Lombardo more disgusting than $500 for Randy?

Da fuk?
Geezer on BASS and Lyrics.
I hope she gets what she deserves.
They all played a part in the bands original success however Iommi was the sound of the band, it was his riffs along with Geezer's lyrics during that classic era that sealed the foundations of their success. Iommi and Butler should really have owned it together.
I don't think there are many popular bands that don't look back with nostalgia on the time when they were on the road to success, because once they achieve that, disagreements arise and the rut sets in.
When they (Sabbath), were getting ready to do that last big tour... they (Ozzy & Tony) offered Bill Ward $500k total to do the tour. Not that, that money is light but.... Ozzy & Tony got like $20 million EACH. Bill Ward said fu*k off on principle. I highy doubt they gave the stand in on drums that same $500k.
Black Sabbath basically layed the foundation for what we know as heavy metal music today? No the Jimi Hendrix Experience did and a reviewer of one of his concert described it as heavy metal falling from the sky of which is where the name heavy metal came from
0:44 Geezer played bass, not guitar; poor research there 😮
I got to 1:08 and as a fan I know the reality of what you are glossing over. There was no point in going any further. "You could even say that they were pioneers". Really? Geezer was a guitar player? Ozzy was impressed? They were absolutely pioneers, Geezer was the bassist/lyricist and Ozzy had an ad looking for a gig.
this happened to a lot of bands, the ones that held it together better, and didn't piss it all away, or had a ruthless wife, whos daddy was her soon to be husbands former bands manager, who ripped them off for a decade....
“Heaven or Hell”??
The music of this MASTER BAND was and is the truth .
Aston boyz forever 🎸🎶❤😎
I've just realised that Ozzy is the Katy Perry of heavy metal/rock music. He is just another brand that we bought into.
Butler was playing bass, there’s vocals, guitar, drums, bass, it isn’t hard.
Why i ain't married.
So many wrong “facts” in this video 🤣
ALL FOR THE LOVE OF MUSIC
And Aleister
Granted Sharon saved Ozzy but everything else she had screwed everyone else
All of them make a team, it's called sharing.
They are not a team. It’s called $auron.
Sharon, Sharon, Sharon - that’s it right there. No mystery. Talk to Iron Maiden about how much they “love” Sharon.
Sounds like the English version OF KISS. OZZY IS PAUL SHARON IS GENE..BAHAHAHAHA
Ozzy’s luck is crazy. He was never a singer until he joined Black Sabbath. Just look at his range between their self titled and albums like Sabbath Bloody Sabbath and Sabotage. Amazing vocalist. He very well could’ve ended up in a Birmingham factory for all we know
You have forgotten the the Jazz influence in the band
Would love to hear Mr Butler Geezer.. write another song about all this ..He wrote all most all the songs for the original Black Sabbath..love some black Sabbath .. original. Ozzy bill tony Butler g.
Everyone always complains about Yoko but Sharon's the real witch.
Sharon wears the pants in that Family!
without Geezer they wouldn't be The Black Sabbath as we know Black Sabbath...
Geezer has said it's because their wives hate each other
Sharon and Ozzy never had any scruples!
Sharon Osbourne’s moral compass is a lot like Bobby Knight. In other words, if I do one good deed on a certain day it gives me the currency to be a douchebag on another day.
Sharon saved Ozzy’s life, stood by him, and made him a prolonged icon. So evidently, she felt since she had been a good human being in one area, it was ok be a total toxic human being in another area.
Yeah. Consider the source.
Geezer didn’t play Guitar he played bass also considering geezer wrote most of the lyrics to the Black Sabbath songs Geezer has a point.
Geezer Butler is a fine one to throw stones. He's anyone's dog for a bone.
Always remember.....Show Business.....2 words....Show and Business.
Let me guess it's over money.
Amusing because now they’re all banging on about the good old days now Tony’s doing something regarding another line up
Lawyers, egos and/or wives are always the reasons great bands are ruined.
Janine with Spinal Tap for instance.
I had always heard Ozzy answered a ad to play with Sabbath (Earth).
I heard similar. The band and Ozzy had ads out simultaneously.
They almost dismissed Ozzy because he was just a school kid they used to see hanging around.
But they jammed and realized he could sing. Something like that.
Great band and any of them out of the equation (like The Beatles) wouldn't have been as great.
Also...Geezer is THE man!!
That's What I Always understood ....
Tony Iommi and Bill Ward answered the advert at a Birmingham music store 👌
“Ozzy Zig requires a gig”
- was the text on a note Ozzy left at a music store and which Geezer and Tony replied to.
It's true Ozzy has said this in an Interview the ad.
Ozzy wrote was 'Ozzy Zig Requires Gig'.
Geezer plays the Bass
Oh boy, he sure does.
@@Kelle0284 lol
Geezer has made a catalogue of great music away from sabbath and ozzy . I bet money he's happy and satisfied
Ozzy and Geezer appearing on Stern was a joke. Stern has no appreciation for either one or for BS.
Geezers lyrics are really pertinent to life , posing questions & pointing out realities that lots of people dont want to or cant deal with . Glad they all made it , in spite of being screwed over & losing buckets of life force in dealing with greedy ,cunning liars including Ozzys bitch wife . They were a great , original band !
What do Sharon Osbourne and Yoko Ono have i common?
They both stink.
It’s always greed isn’t it. Each member is only famous because of the band dynamics. Black Sabbath is why they are famous. If it wasn’t for the band, they might all still be working in a factory. Ozzie on his own couldn’t have toured America if it hadn’t been for Black Sabbath. They should be sharing everything equally. But when gold is flashed before your face, you have a decision to make between loyalty and morals and selfishness. Greed always spoils everything.
Of course Sharon is to blame. That’s been a common occurrence since she first came into the picture. She’s a snobby nepo baby who saw dollar signs in Ozzy and used it to her advantage.
Dammit it's worse disappointment than when i first learned there's no Santa...
Just curious. Do Geezer and Ozzy talk anymore?
No buddy THE greatest heavy metal band.get it right boy
Ozzy Zig requires gig.
No wonder bill didn’t want to get involved sounds like a right carry on
The original heavy metal band...they started it .
Geezer Butler..Bass Guitar
If anyone should own Black Sabbath, it's Tony Iommi.
