---Forword---
But hey, now you know what kind of mental state he was in, having faced ALOT of problems, he brought out this album I am reviewing. This album is the 15th he worked on, and its obvious they know what they are doing.

Advantages: Classic songs from his career Disadvantages: Nothing from the Ultimate Sin album
..., but after Randy’s death Ozzy was not the same). Bark at the Moon is just brilliant another Ozzy classic.
I then noticed something odd, on this Best of album….. There were no songs from the ‘UltimateSin’ album….why???
Wot no ‘Shot in the Dark’ or ‘UltimateSin’??
Only the record label executives will know why they’ve left these 2 off. These songs rock.
There’s a few more songs and then we get to ‘Miracle Man’ (a tribute to American Evengalist Bible-basher Jimmy Swaggart who should have ‘Practiced what he Preached’ but instead got caught with a Prostitute with his pants down!).

Advantages: Great album, sobre at last Disadvantages:
...No More Tears is one of OzzyOsbournes greatest releases to date, during the tour for this album Ozzy became Tea Total and finally buried his drug addiction.
1. Mr Tinkertrain (Fast metal affair, innuendo abound)
2. I Don’t Want To Change The World (A great anthem)
3. Mama I’m Coming Home (A Moving Ballad)
4. Desire (Great rock song)
5. No More Tears (Operatic rock opus almost Queen like)
6. SIN (Great Song)
7. Hellraiser (Ozzy & Lemmy From Motorhead teamed up for this one and is available on the soundtrack form Hellraiser 3)
8. Time After Time (Great Ballad)
9. Zombie Stomp (Fun Song)
10. AVH (Stands for Actual Vocally Harm, interesting song)
11. Road To Nowhere (Ballad)...
