• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Pushkin. It's been fifty years since Black Sabbath released Iron Man,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: but its guitar riffs are still some of the hardest
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: and darkest in rock history. While Black Sabbath is often
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: giving credit for creating heavy metal, none of its members
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: had the success or longevity of their original frontman, Ozzy Osbourne.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: In the eighties, Ozzie successfully turned his Prince of Darkness
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: alter ego into a decades long career. With help from
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: his manager and wife, Sharon Osbourne, Ozzi's released eleven solo albums,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: with seven of them going multi platinum. They also created Ozzfest,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a Tory metal festival that became a mecca for metal
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: fans everywhere, myself included, and of course, they had their
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: pop culture crossover moment with the reality show The Osbourne's
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: on MTV. Ozzie and Rick Rubin first met when Rick
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: had just moved to la and the two became fast friends.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Their friendship eventually turned into Rick producing the last Black
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Sabbath record, the Reunion Album from twenty thirteen. Ozzie's mostly
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: kept a low profile since then, but at seventy one,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: he's back to making music. He has a new album
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: called Ordinary Man, it's his first solo album in a decade. Rick,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Ozzy and Sharon sat on the bus at Changing a
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Lot to talk about the record and how a gift
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: from his father turned an ordinary boy from Birmingham, England,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: into the prince of darkness. This is broken record liner
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: notes for the digital Age. I'm justin Richmond. Here's Ozzie
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: and Sharon Osbourne in conversation with Rick Rubin. They start
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: things off talking about the track Ozzie did with Post
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Malone and Travis Scott take what you Want? Did you
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: hear the track as he did with Post Oh, he's
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: got to hear that. I'm Travis Scott's a big shot now. Yeah. Yeah.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: When Andrew I did your song we Post He's great. Though,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: he's doing great. I've was stunned that it's just him
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: on stage. It's not bad man, no nothing, just him incredible.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Ye tell me tell me your first memories of any
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: performance anytime you was the first time you remember being
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: on stage. I was in a band called the Prospected
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: because the singer was it was sick. I never do know.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: We did a gig Birmingham fire Station. There's three three
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: firemen and a drunk in the audience. You think I
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: was going to be shot. I was so nervous. Yeah,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: that was the first thing I ever did we do
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: cover songs or oh yeah, blues stones, yeah, uh damn,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you know, and it was um back in. The whole
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: game has changed now when when we're there's no way
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to playing that much anymore. And when we used to
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: go to Webb when we were Sabbath, we messed around
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: with different names. It was like a polkas blues band
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Earth and then then we wrote the song Black Sabbath
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: and then Guisers, what don't we call the band? And
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that was it. Then how did the band come together? Well,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I was it always you know aboutman called the Red
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Ruby Geezer. I never did a gig with them. But
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: the only reason the gigs I had to pay, I
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: said Guizer, and I said I want to get out,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: so do I. And shortly around actual Geiser and Bill
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: had a band called Mythology and they had been busted
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: for smoking dope. I had to break up because it
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: was like the curse. She used to go to the
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: same school as Tony and we didn't around school. It
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: was like high school. Yeah, and one thing I think
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: we started. We originally had a saxophone player and a
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: bottle bottle and guitar player like because it was like
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: the Fleetwood Mac that were that were around, but the
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: original Fleetwood Mac nothing what they ended up being. I
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: wished to go and see them. We n see John
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Miles Blues Breakers. And there was a club in Birmingham
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: called I'm Anish Club now, but we used to go
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: in and we used to see all these different bands.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: You know, I saw Candy Eat there once. I was
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: like an American banding Birmingham freaks out, how many how
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: many people would be in a club like that? Then
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: no Ah, great, there's seven hundred thousand and most. Then
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: there was a club, a few clubs in Birmingham. We
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: used to go with our van full of a quick
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: my just in case the band never made and we've
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: got any bank. We've gone played be Standing for Blands
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: or ten years after jeth Road Show the band amazing,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and then we played with Jets Hotel and Tony got
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: off with the gig and then I remember thinking, oh, no,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: it's gone now because Tony was somewhere else for it.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I mean he still is. Yeah, it's nobody on the
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: face of the other couldn't come up with the riffs
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: like the King of the Riffs. Oh it's great, And
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: then you know it was just it's kind of we
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: all live. Did he ever play with Jethro Tuller, No,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: what I think he did a couple of TV thing
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: He died a rock and roll the Rolling Stones, rock
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: and Roll circles, yes, which was a chary thing. And
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: then he died a couple of things. We wouldn't win
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: him too long and he came back and he said,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: if we get out of stuff together, oh we can
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: do it. I was like fucking house. He left Jethro
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: to come back to us and that was a big job.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: That was. But Tony's one of these guys he has
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: been told what to do, you'll do You'll fucking punch one.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: I know that. You know I've seen him do it.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: You know it's some he has been so I told
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: me have to wear hats and and but he he was.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: But it was all Everything was new. Well, I mean
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: we'd get in the van. We played the Star Club
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Hamburg for residency, but we had nothing to lose. It
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: was exciting. Did people like the band right away or no? No,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: we we we do like at the Star Club. But
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: it was a good training ground because you do forty
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: five minutes on and another band would you go different
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: every forty Yeah, so we do one that we blues
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: songs and Bill would do a job solver once said,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Tony would do a guitar us every one. I'd fuck
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: around doing all this stuff and climbing ladders, painting my
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: face and just generally pissing about, you know. But it
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: was a good experience, better than being in Birmingham unemployed.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I said. We just got b lived from hand to
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: mouth and it was fun. Any band that I've ever
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: been in the early stages of the band have been
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: the most fun because everybody's in the same boat. But
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: that remember, I'll remember Jim Simpson, the original manager sign
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: on the Wye down to the Fairies today Ferry. We
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: just stop off with the recordings to the region sound
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: and record them songs you've been doing. Probably just got
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: the set up recording went away two days like the
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: two six l seasons twelve. So just like the live
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: set we had the audience. We've been planning life. So
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I remember coming back from Europe for Christmas and the
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: managers come over. I got the artwork to show and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: back then to have the gate Pole album Sleep was
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: like the big thing. And when we saw that first
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: album Sleep, we're like, fucking, what is this? We right,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: just seven album that was so cool. And then the
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: album came out and we heard the album with a
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: because when we recorded it, we never had the effects
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: like the thunder, the weird voice effects, and it was
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: just amazing. And then I'm in a club and I'm
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: my first advance was one hundred and five pounds. I thought,
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I never thought, let's say that much money. So I'm
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: in the club and this guy comes. Just when he goes,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I said, he's got some good news to tell you.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: As so what's that? This is? Your album entered the
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: British chart next week and someone was seventeen or something.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Are you winding me up? You're joking? And it remained
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: there for eighteen months. Time it was going ome and
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: down the chart which showed me had parent and went
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: straight at number one. I'm like, because he must as yourself,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: you don't when you do. When you're doing something, you
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: like it, yeah, but when somebody goes, I fucking that's
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: that's all you need. But when somebody comes and says
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: your album's in the charts and everything's going one way,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: and it was just it doesn't make sense. It's like
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: you don't believe it. He don't believe real. Ye, it's
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: like you can't accept it, you know why? Well I
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: did complain. Things started to look up and Sharon Father
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: one of the managers, then somebody else that worked for him, girls,
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: and it's just everything was up and up, but we
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: got ripped up royally by manager and badly. Remember the
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: first time you do a show where people really liked it? Yeah,
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: the first time they liked it, like like we did
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: a jump Pell radio show. Oh y, we hadn't even
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: recorded the more written the songs by that point people
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: started to when they album got in the chart. It
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: was like we used to play his underground clubs. Underground
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: then was what underground underground? But it was good word
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: of mouth. Yes, saw Black Sabbath in the first we
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: said fuck TV, fuck doing this. We were a people's
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: band calling and back in England then it was like
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: doing top of the pubs was a banging but we
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: all did it or eventually and it was just to
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: make the first something ms you could sabbably sell. Then
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: the drugs, the alcohol, the wives, the divorced and all
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: the trappings. You know, we found it the man who
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: was ripping us. Though we tried to manage ourselves, we
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: fucking clue and the booze started to get heavy. I
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: started to drink more, and Bill started to drink more,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: and me and Bill and Tony and Gooze we just
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: got ugly. Now I didn't get good. There was no fight.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: It was a band that we believed in what we
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: were doing at first, and then we got royally take
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: into the cleaners and we just thought, what's the poison?
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: And when they fired me, I thought, Sharon's Votom's managers
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: yet again, and I thought, we don't want you to
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: be getting sucked up all. That's what I was, And
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. At that point, I just said
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I'm done. It sounds like it was already bad at
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: that time. Anyway, rememberable we ended up making music to
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: pay our lawyers fees. Yeah, And we all said to
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: each other many times what we needed someone like Sharon
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: or Father, somebody to come and say, hey, you need
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: to try yourself though, get your shit together and write
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: somebody to tell us what we what was wrong because
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: our egos, we're running the show in under the implant,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: the drugs and alcohol. I just went to and Sharon's
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: officer got me up a partmagine in West La Parker Hotel.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: I thought, I fucking last spling any money I got?
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: How old were you at that time? I was about thirty.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: I thought I got that spinge. So Sharon comes O
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: away when sing, she goes. Listen as she goes. If
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: you get yourself to go, we want to manage her
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: because I was thought. I thought no one wanted to
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: manage a singer. Then I met Randy, and then then
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: another thing happened to me. How do you meet Randy?
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: A guy called Dana Strum from Slaughter remember the bunch o.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Dana Strum was my original choice for a bugget. Sharon
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: got me auditioning people. I'd never auditioned anybody in my life.

• 37:12
  Speaker 1: It's just I've tried writing that form with the bounds. Yeah,
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: because no, it's it's unique to that particular group of people.
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: And it when as soon as you guys came here
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: and started playing, it's so unremarkable. It's like remarkable how
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: much it always sounds like Black Sabbath when you guys
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: are together. It's like you can't not sound like you

  Speaker 1: could play a cover of someone else and it would
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: still just sound like a Black Sabbath song, an original. Yeah. Yeah,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: But the only thing about the album word the video
