As part of Sony's specially priced "three-in-one" packages, three Ozzy Osbourne classics were issued together in 1998, DIARY OF A MADMAN, BARK AT THE MOON, and THE ULTIMATE SIN. Although it might seem strange that Ozzy's most popular solo album, 1981's BLIZZARD OF OZ was ommited from the trio, the three CDs are nevertheless among the most popular heavy metal releases of the '80s. 1981's DIARY OF A MADMAN was Ozzy's second and final album with original guitarist Randy Rhoads, while both 1983's BARK AT THE MOON and 1986's THE ULTIMATE SIN featured six-string shredder Jake E. Lee.
Although the recording of DIARY OF A MADMAN was rushed (a deadline had to be met for an impending tour), the album remains one of Ozzy's finest. Such metallic standards as "Over the Mountain" and the stoner anthem "Flying High Again" are obvious standouts, as are "Believer," "Little Dolls," "Tonight," and the haunting title track. The other two albums show Osbourne moving in a slightly more commercial direction, yet there are plenty of rockers to go around--BARK AT THE MOON's title track and "Rock n' Roll Rebel," plus THE ULTIMATE SIN's title track and "Lightning Strikes," among others.
