ozzy osbourne - the other side of ozzy osbourne

ozzy and his band did release a few b-side songs throughout the years, scattered across 7", 12" and picture disc single releases. japanese folk came up with a clever move to avoid outrageous collecting and put out a handy 12" compilation. this really nice package included a lyric sheet, an OBI strip and pin up posters of ozzy and guitarists randy rhoads and jake e. lee. found this complete copy in top condition. jet records and cbs records. 1985.

ozzy osbourne - live e.p.

essentially this is the 'mr. crowley' single that was released in the u.k. in 1980. it has the same track list with the exclusive b-side song 'you said it all'. only my copy was released in canada two years later as part of 'the 598 series'. great copy and 'you said it all' is one hell of a good number. jet records. 1982.

dio - intermission

the last metal related record i got from the flea market was another dio record. 'intermission' is a live e.p. with one exclusive studio song. a short and entertaining listen. u.s. version on warner music. 1986.

dio - dream evil

on the same flea market where i got the ozzy 'the ultimate sin' record, i also found two dio records. this is number one, 'dream evil' from 1987. a powerful album that sports only killers and no fillers. this is a european pressing on vertigo records.

ozzy osbourne - the ultimate sin (mexican pressing)

bought this mexican pressing of 'the ultimate sin' on a flea market in the north of germany, of all places. i really wonder how this came to be. the vinyl is in a real good condition but unfortunately the printed dust sleeve is missing.

thanks to the stellar work of the copy shop around the corner and using the existing dust sleeve of my european pressing, i have now a photo copied insert on heavy stock paper. epic records. 1986.
