To be honest, I'm glad that Ozzy is now disassociated with Black Sabbath.

I hate him, and I think he's a sellout of the worst kind. I'm glad he's out, and I don't miss him in the least.

It's good to see Dio, and the rest of Sabbath back in business, ESPECIALLY Geezer, the man who inspired me to pick up the bass.

I've never been a big Sabbath fan other than some hits back in the late 70's to early 80's. I just downloaded this from iTunes, and it definitely rocks. Love it!

Yeah I did pretty cool. I guess he is using a 5 string on some songs.
I was rolling when they told the story of putting talcum powder in Vinnie's hair dryer and then they showed the pic. Classic!

That these guy's are still alive, let alone still putting out viable music and touring, is pretty amazing.
The new disc is very good overall from cut to cut, but I do long for the crazy early day's and ways Geezer played into the late 70s. Simply the best R&R bassist ever. Will I buy the new CD, no. Heard it, enjoyed it, but my big toe never shot up into my boot (thank you, Little Richard).
I was listening to some booted Sab from '78 today and Ozzy in particular sounded incredible, perfect for the music and much better than usual.
