Lee , Ozzy Osbourne. Categories: Metal , News. Back To Top. Carol Anne Szel of Goldmine magazine recently conducted an interview with legendary heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne. A few excerpts from the chat follow below. We started it about a year and a half ago. I mean, we didn't do it for a year and a half every day. We'd go in.

Do a bit. Then do something else and go back to it. But on this one, with producer Kevin Churko , we laid the foundations and my band played against the foundations. So I kind of lose a spiritual charge kind of thing, when you build it the way they do it now.

I'm not disappointed. I'm really pleased with the way it turned out. But to me, I like to get the band thing, you know, rather than put the band on afterwards.

In an interview with Guitar World last December, super-producer Andrew Watt revealed that — following his Grammy-winning work on Ozzy Osbourne's acclaimed album, Ordinary Man — he was "about halfway through" a second album with the Prince of Darkness. Aside from manning the boards on Ordinary Man , Watt also — with some help from Slash and Tom Morello , mind you — served as the album's primary guitarist, rather than Osbourne's live guitarslinger, Zakk Wylde.

In fact, Wylde — a veteran of five Ozzy studio albums — didn't appear on Ordinary Man at all. Wylde took care to add, however, that there were no hard feelings whatsoever between him and Osbourne. If [my wife] Barb just said, 'Zakk, Ozzy and Sharon are gonna go out and have dinner with friends or whatever. Come over here and feed the dogs.
