Chartwise, TUG OF WAR was McCartney's biggest post-Beatles moment, and, not surprisingly, it found him reunited with Beatles producer George Martin for the first time since their ABBEY ROAD heyday. Yet, the album was also an artistic triumph, ...    Full Description

5 stars What Paul does
This is my favorite McCartney album .It does everything you expect from Paul . There are no fillers here .I always want this in my record collection . When this first came out . It was in heavy rotation with Prince ,Madonna & everyone else during that time frame . But to me it is better than alot of that....that was out at the time .

5 stars A creative breath of fresh air
Sometimes, when you're working at something, you just have to step back and let it sit. After a decade of his work with Wings, he still made music, but this album sounds like he just laid back and made the stuff during a coffee break. It is so easy to listen to and like that you forget that Paul must have been going through a lot at the time (John Lennon's assassination and the breakup of Wings). But this whole album was so fun and bright and wonderful that you never get a chance to even think about what the artist must have been thinking when you listen to it. It is that nostalgic, and that good. Sir Paul did anything and everything on this record, and it sounds great even today. I don't think that Paul could have made a better album than this one. Forget about "Band on the Run" or "Flaming Pie". "Tug of War" beats all of them with sheer musical muscle and easy listenability. This is the definitive Paul McCartney record. If you liked him with the Beatles, you'll like him on this record.

5 stars The Toppermost of the Poppermost!
This album, more than any other, has earned Macca a reputation for meticulously-crafted pop. Teaming up with Beatles producer George Martin, Paul returned from the home-grown experimentation of "McCartney II" to present the world with this unbelievably enjoyable collection of songs. As you so often read in reviews, the big hit from this album, Ebony and Ivory, is by far the weakest song on the disc (other than the throw-away What's That You're Doing). Don't think that I'm not a Stevie Wonder fan...love him. He just didn't really add anything to this work. If you want a great collaboration, how about the legendary Carl Perkins. Their track together, Get It, is classic Perkins, right up there with Blue Suede Shoes or Movie Magg. Standout tracks include Take It Away (ultra-cool, fern-bar groove), Here Today (Paul's tribute to the recently-assassinated John Lennon), and Ballroom Dancing (a cool 50's dance tune). There's not really a weak track on this album, and its one of those rare discs that you'll love the first time you hear it as well as the thousandth time. Next to Flaming Pie, this is my favorite Macca disc.

Let us all be thankful that Ozzy's retirement didn't stick. It supposedly lasted for three days, after which he got bored and started working on this project. Heavy, riff-intensive tunes, progressive song structures and a little psychedelia give OZZMOSIS a definite Sabbath flavor. Ozzy must have been in touch with whatever inspired early classics like PARANOID and MASTERS OF REALITY. Witness the extremely chunky "Thunder Underground," which can stand up next to "Sweet Leaf" and "Symptom Of The Universe" as an archetype of hard rock. The trippy guitar in "Ghost Behind My Eyes" and "Denial" are not some young Ozzy-wannabe going for a retro sound--this man was there, "Planet Caravan"ing. Still, this heavy metal daddy in touch with his roots is also hip to the genre's latest sound. OZZMOSIS has a live, up-front feeling, thanks to producer Michael Beinhorn (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Soundgarden). Zakk Wylde's huge, raw guitar also plays a major role. He provides scorching solos, lush textures and juicy fills with a muscular tone and minimal effects--the perfect complements to Osbourne's songwriting. But more important than the raging guitars and the big sound is attitude. Ozzy's spunk has indeed rejected retirement. His songs still spew biting commentary at whoever will listen. "Your bulls**t culture licking can't stop the deathwatch ...

THE OZZMAN COMETH is a single CD collection of hits, previously unavailable recordings and one new track. Previously included a limited edition second disc containing 2 of the 4 previously unavailable recordings as well as an interview with Ozzy Osbourne. As if we needed another reason to believe that Ozzy Osbourne is God, along comes THE OZZMAN COMETH, a double CD retrospective of one of the most enduring and influential figures in heavy metal. Consisting mostly of his post-Black Sabbath solo work as well as a live version of "Paranoid," this collection's biggest asset is the so-called "basement tapes," never-before-heard rehearsal tapes of four classic Sabbath songs. Dating back to 1970, "Black Sabbath" and "War Pigs" are the songs that transformed a petty thief from Birmingham, England into the godfather of heavy metal. But if Sabbath cemented his place in the rock 'n' roll canon, his solo work raised him to legendary status. Working with former Quiet Riot guitarist Randy Rhoads, Osbourne set the tone for the 80's metal revival with songs like "Crazy Train" and "Mr. Crowley." Capping off the collection is a seventeen minute interview with Ozzy from 1988, where he speaks frankly about the ups and downs in his career (parents be forewarned: this is not for the faint of heart). Ozzy has made it through all the pitfalls of a life in rock and roll and has come out on the ...
