Ozzy Osbourne is a living legend. The man is partially responsible for the birth of heavy metal. So what are his favorite albums from the genre he helped create?
Rolling Stone continued publishing individual lists of musicians they asked to contribute to their 100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums list, including lists from Lars Ulrich and Rob Halford. Here's Ozzy's list:
AC/DC – Highway To Hell
Alice In Chains – Facelift
Guns N’ Roses – Appetite For Destruction
Judas Priest – British Steel
Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin IV
Megadeth – Rust In Peace
Metallica – Master Of Puppets
Motörhead – Ace Of Spades
Pantera – Cowboys From Hell
Rob Zombie – Hellbilly Deluxe
Nothing too surprising. Ozzy offered a few details to Rolling Stone including calling Judas Priest "one of the best metal bands of all time" and calling Pantera "some of the biggest party animals I ever toured with," which coming from Ozzy, is incredibly flattering.
