Ozzy Osbourne "Diary Of A Madman"



On this day (November 7, 1981), Ozzy Osbourne released his second studio album entitled "Diary Of A Madman."  This is probably my favorite Ozzy solo album.  This album sadly was the last album to feature guitarist Randy Rhoads who died in a plane crash the following year.  The album was also certified triple platinum (selling over 3 million copies) in the U.S. in October of 1994.  In honor of Randy Rhoads, in 2011, this album and "Blizzard of Ozz" were rereleased as a Deluxe 30 year anniversary edition.  My favorite songs from this album would have to be the title track and "You Can't Kill Rock N Roll."  I also own this album on cd, vinyl, and cassette.  Do you own this album? Did you buy it or were you able to buy it when it was released?  What are your favorite songs from the album.
