Recorded between March 22 & April 19, 1980. Includes liner notes by Phil Alexander.

Digitally remastered by Stephen Marcussen (Marcussen Mastering).

After the quiet implosion of Black Sabbath, the wise money was not on former vocalist, Ozzy, being the one to redeem himself musically. However, with shrewd management by his wife and a hotshot Californian in the shape of ex-Quiet Riot guitarist, Randy Rhoads, he reinvented himself and his musical persona, and created a startling debut album. Combining Rhoads' impetuous flurries of heavily stylized guitar, his own series of lyrical caricatures--"Crazy Train" and "Revelation (Mother Earth)"--and a healthy dose of controversy, citing renowned satanist Aleister Crowley as the subject matter for "Mr. Crowley," he ensured himself acclaim and commerciality in equal measure.

1 star a classic album ruined
It's a shame that such an excellent album was tampered with by the never-ending greed of the Osbournes. They finally get around to releasing You Looking At Me and they wreck the album by re-recording new bass and drums. It's blasphemy! Go to your local used music shop and seek out the original CD and avoid this trainwreck.

2 stars Blizzard Of Ozz...
was a great album, before it was thampered with. Wasn't the original bass line and drums replaced, or something like that? It's wrecked, as far as I am concerned.

5 stars Not sure why this cd is getting slammed????
It seems this re-mastered version has different people playing bass and drums but it is note-for-note as the original. The bass/drums are more clear and prominent. Who are the players? Robert Trujillo (bass guitar) who is a monster and Mike Bordin (drums) who has played with Ozzy up until the Scream cd. And let's not forget Ozzy (from early 80's) voice, and the great Randy Rhodes on GTR. I can't figure out the bad ratings??? This is truly a great CD.

1 star Wow!
Is this a joke...must be 1 April because that was bad. Glad I have the originals still on cd and record for that matter. Remixed drums and bass sounds like $hit. Don't waste you money.
