Ozzy is god

The only minuses of this release that 3 songs, Lightning Strikes, Ultimate Sin and Shot In the Dark are all studio versions. The rest is a live concert. This collection consists tracks from the first 4 studio albums. The first track is awesome Shot In the Dark, which got good drums and bass and heavy guitar riffs. Ozzys singing is awesome. Bark At the moon gots its best live version of all time ( better than Zakk Wyldes)The third track, Never Know Why got a weird intro but then it relaxes a bit, and flows to a moody heavy hard rock song. Mr.Crowley got TREMENDOUS live version. Ozzy sings high notes greatly and Jakes guitar stomps HARD N HEAVY. I dont know is ann average song. Killer of Giants is a long, pretty mellow, but hard on few occasions. Thank god for the bomb is a fine heavy metal song. With Ozzy all fired up. Lightning Strikes , I usually skip this. Flying High Again is the only Diary song here, its pretty awesome. Secret Loser is the best song in the setlist. It got great vocals by Ozzy, unbelivable guitar playing by jake and rolling drums by Randy Castillo. I've listened to this live version over 150 times. Then comes Iron Man, My least favourite song in the set. Then comes paranoid, good track, but too long pause. The final track is the memorable Ultimate Sin.

Overall this is Ozzys best live concert, it gots a killer set list but could have had more songs from the albums Bark and Diary. Best tracks are Bark at the moon and Secret Loser. Heavy Metal music doesnt get any better than this. Buy it! BUY IT!

JAKE E LEE UNDERRATED

This is a treat for any GUITAR LOVER or PLAYER,
Watching this guitar god is a gift .
Ozzy is kind of heavy but his singing is OK.
Castillo played as usual, really good
Keyboards are to high for my personal taste,
but if you tweaked you surround a little, you have
the magnificent Jake's guitar roaring in front of you!!
Really good collection of songs,
Highlite KILLER OF GIANTS and BARK AT THE MOON!!
Buy it as supplies last....
this is CLASSIC ROCK

Ozzy and band at their best

This concert, along with the promoclips, are from the "Ultimate sin"-era. In my opinion, Ozzy was at his peak (musically) around this time, having just released my favorite Ozzy-album "The ultimate sin". His band included the great Jake E Lee on guitar and Randy Castillo on drums. The concert includes several great songs from "The ultimate sin", and the definitive version of "Mr. Crowley". This video will most likely never be released officially on DVD, so your only choice is between a used VHS or a bootleg DVD.
(My rating is only 4 stars because of the boring guitar- and drum solos.)

Attention Guitar Students!!

I've been looking for this video, and I guess I will keep looking, but I have to concur with Marco and Scott's reviews. I've been playing guitar for over 30 years, and when this video came out in the mid-80s, guitar heroes were in their heyday. At the time, Jake was unquestionably one of the top players for combining great melodicism, virtuoso technique, and incendiary guitar pyrotechniques. (Frankly, few players are at this level twenty years later.) The sequence in this video where Jake barres the neck with the side of his left thumb is amazing, and I have never seen attempted by another player. Especially if you are a student of playing kickin' metal guitar, you must check this out. It will blow your mind.

Jake E. Lee is a god

This concert is the best show ozzy ever released on video. Jake is on fire in this concert. At a time when everybody was trying to be the next Eddie Van Halen, with the whammy bar, finger tapping and over the top soloing, Jake stood out. His style, sound and natural stage presence make this a very entertaining performance.

Randy Castillo looks like he's having so much fun while playing. He makes a great entrance and has a terrific drum solo. Ozzy is his usual self, except for the whole glam thing going on. Phil (the bass player) kind of blends into the background and the keyboards can be too much at times. But this concert is all about Jake. He was the most exciting guitarist to play live with Ozzy. I'm not knocking Randy (he's one of my favorites) but Jake was born to play live. Zakk, though good, lacked creativity which just made him boring.

The high points are Bark at the Moon, Killer of Giants(solo rocks)and Mr. Crowley. The low was knowing that with the exit of Jake, the mythical guitar hero position of playing with Ozzy started losing it's glory.

This was Ozzy at his best. Great performance with extremely talanted musicians.
