4.0 out of 5 stars Great Underrated Show, July 19, 2004

By 

Turd Ferguson (Mundelein, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live At Budokan (Audio CD)

Ozzy's old, give him some credit. And by the way Suicide Solution is on the DVD it's just not on the cd cuz it ends up being like twenty minutes long. Anyway

1.I Don't Know-Always excellent opener played exceptionally well.
2.That I Never Had-New song that really grows on you. All around well played song.
3.Believer-The singular song off of Diary of a Madman. Cool song. Not up to par though. One of the downsides of this show.
4.Junkie-An anthemic anti drug song that catches you at first listen and never lets go.
5.Mr. Crowley-The classic itself. Always loved this whole song and its very well displayed here especially the intro Keyboard solo and Zakk's solos.
6.Gets Me Through-A new classic. Probably the best song off of Down To Earth. Really catchy and generally a great song.
7.Suicide Solution-DVD ONLY-great song especially liek zakk's solo which includes part of eddie van halens eruption and the star spangled banner.
8.No More Tears-For some reason I don't like this version. Maybe it's just the way Robert Trujillo(the bassist) plays the main riff. Just sounds a bit off.
9.I Dont' Want To Change The World-Great song off of no more tears.
10.Road To Nowhere-The only truly beautiful song Ozzy ever wrote. Excellent guitar work by Zakk. Watching it on the DVD makes this man cry.
11.Crazy Train-excellent extended live version of this instant classic.
ENCORES:
12.Mama I'm Coming Home-Good version of the classic. Check out Zakk's double neck SG on the DVD
13.Bark At The Moon-the only track off of a great album. Well played. Still wish Ozzy wore the werewolf costume he did for the video live. Just think itd be cool.
14.Paranoid-Great version of the Sabbath classic.

Overall:A great intro to Ozzy. This cd will creat new fans overnight. All Metal fans should own this great live album.

4.0 out of 5 stars WTF?, December 7, 2003

By

This review is from: Live At Budokan (Audio CD)

Well, I was reading the reviews previous this, and I noticed everyone saying they thought this was a cheap live set meant to exploit the commercial success of the popular MTV hit, The Osbournes. I have no clue where that came from, and I don't see how that might have an affect on Live at Budokan whatsoever.

This album is pretty awesome. How can it not, Zakk Wylde's playing the guitar on it (he's pretty much a white Hendrix that came twenty years later). It's pretty cool as a fellow strings musician to listen to anything by Zakk, or anything he participates in; he always has variations for every riff and demonstrates his wonderful mastery of guitar on this album and any other. Ozzy seemed to be rather energetic throughout this album, not like how he sometimes is on Ozzfest. His singing is clear as always, and it's just an all out satisfying album.

I Don't Know- Starts off with a weird intro bit that many of Ozzy's concerts begin with. Then, Zakk and Ozzy head it off and perform the classic off Blizzard that any Ozzy fan enjoys.

That I Never Had- Not exactly the material I think of when I think about Ozzy, but it was alright live. Rather mediocre, and I have a few songs on mind that would do just fine replacing this one.

Believer- A classic in some perspectives. The live version is okay, yet far from a gem on this album. Zakk does his typical overly exceptional guitar work on this album, and it goes quite nicely.

My. Crowley- Has a longer keyboard intro, then moves into the well known tune of the monstrous hit. Zakk was really good on this, especially during the solos (some of the most known solos in rock). Awesome track.

Gets Me Through- A little better than That I Never Had and Junkie. Still kind of a less enjoyable track when compared to the others, yet it's a good listen.

No More Tears- Awesome song, as was the studio version. I rather enjoyed the live version, and I love listening to how Zakk alters the original to show off his skills. This is a must listen.

I Don't Want to Change the World- Another Ozzy classic, and the live cut deserves its place on this record. A nice follow up to No More Tears, although the next track isn't quite as pleasing.

Road to Nowhere- I've never particularly enjoyed this song myself, and the live version is about the same as the studio. The chorus wasn't exactly what Ozzy's known for, it was rather mediocre in my mind's eye.

Crazy Train- I always enjoy this song, despite how it's still overplayed. The live version, though, is possibly the gem of this album. Wonderful guitar (even more so than usual) by Zakk, the modifications he did for it in this concert were great. Zakk had a nice solo on this as well, a more extended one than what Randy would play.

Mama, I'm Coming Home- This is the song that when played live gets everyone going. It's not exactly heavy or riff filled, but everyone can enjoy it for its lyrics. It doesn't let down in this recording.

Bark at the Moon- This was the first Ozzy song I learned how to play on guitar. It's still awesome to me, I realyl love it, despite how others might say it's not the best of that particular album.

Paranoid- Awesome. Zakk does it better than Tony Iommi, I must say. I love this song, no matter if it's Tony or randy who play it, but Zakk did it best.

Although probably not the best live Ozzy CD, I'd suggest buying this one. If you don't particularly like Ozzy, or you have been swayed by negative reviews, just buy it for the guitar- that's good enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars OZZY LIVE, May 4, 2003

By 

Jorge "superjointjore69" (Howell,NJ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Live At Budokan (Audio CD)

This is by far the best live album I ever heard form Ozzy Osbourne(better than LIVE + LOUD,Just say Ozzy,and Tribute) (Nothing against Randy Rhoads).Live in Budokan is better than Live + Loud because, Live + Loud is a two discs that some songs are pretty bad form the studio recordeing and when you hear it Live from that album [is not good]. But with this album its 1 disc that has all the hits from Ozzy that you want to hear and it sound great.I'm a big fan of live albums that why I like this album so much. Compared to a person that doesn't like live albums. The whole album is very great when it comes to the music from Zakk Wlyed one of the best guitars of all time. Rob Trujillo a very good,no the best basses that Ozzy ever had. Mike Bordin on the drums that are amazing. Then you have Ozzy Osbourne on vocals that totally rulez. And then you have the fans that will blow your ears away, they scream at the top of there lungs it great. Thats all you need for a great Ozzy Osboune record. Some of the songs sounds better on this live album than the studio version. Like Crazy Train, Mr Crowley, No More Tears, Mama I'm Comming Home, Bark at the Moon. And Paranoid sound so good on this album because of Zakk Wyled solo in the middle of the song. Then there are some of Ozzy's new songs from Down To Earth album (which is a must have for a Ozzy fan). Like Gets Me Through, Junkie, and That I never had are totally better live than the studio version by far. And you have to hear Zakk Wlyed's guitar riffs are incredable they are so off the hook, and the solos that he has off of these songs, they are amazing. He is no Tony Immoi from Black Sabbath, but he can soon be or even better, No Zakk Wyled is ten times better thatn Immoi(no offense)(I love you Tony, but Zakk is better than you sorry). So there you have it. Go out and buy this album you will not regrete it i promise you that. This is Ozzy Osbourne at his best.LIVE!
