Ozzy Osbourne's wife and manager Sharon Osbourne shared an interesting story about how her late husband felt terrible about the way he treated Ronnie James Dio, his replacement in Black Sabbath. According to her, in the documentary "No Escape From Now", by the end of his life he used go on Youtube and watch Dio interviews and said he felt sorry for him, because he never got to know his solo career or hear his albums with Black Sabbath. She also recalled an episode of when they first met and Ozzy tried to stab him with a fork at the Rainbow Bar & Grill in Los Angeles decades ago. Sharon Osbourne says Ozzy felt terrible about how he treated Dio "It was like, 'Why are you watching Ronnie?' He goes, 'I feel sorry for him. I feel terrible.' He never really listened to any of those (Black Sabbath) records at all. He never knew Ronnie. The first time he met him was when he tried to stab him at the Rainbow (Bar and Grill)… with a fork. He never really knew the guy and never knew his music. So he feels really bad. So he watches Ronnie James Dio interviews and I'm like, 'What the fuck are you doing?'" Sharon Osbourne said. Due to his alcohol and drug addiction and his lack of commitment with Black Sabbath at the time, he was fired by the band in 1979, being replaced by Ronnie James Dio who had left Rainbow. During Sabbath's first era with Dio they recorded two praised studio albums: "Heaven & Hell" (1980) and "Mob Rules" (1981). After those records due to creative differences with Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, Dio left the band taking with him the drummer Vinny Appice, who replaced Ward on the second album. Both of them would return in the early 90s to record "Dehumanizer" (1992). Both of them would leave the band again but this time curiously, because of Ozzy Osbourne. By the end of the tour to promote the record Iommi and Geezer accepted Ozzy Osbourne's invitation to be his opening act and to perform a few songs together by the end of his show. Dio didn't accept to perfom that night, being replaced by Judas Priest's Rob Halford on vocals. It was the reason why he left Sabbath again but that same line-up would reunite again in the 2000s when they formed Heaven & Hell, Sabbath's spin-off band, which released one studio album "The Devil You Know" (2009). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DivwM2EVro4The post Sharon Osbourne says Ozzy felt terrible about how he treated Dio appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.

The singer Bruce Dickinson first joined Iron Maiden in 1981, replacing the band's first recording frontman Paul Di'Anno after he was fired. After millions of successful records sold worldwide, Dickinson decided to leave the band in 1993 and his replacement was Blaze Bayley, who was part of the group from 1994 to 1999, when Bruce returned. With the band Blaze recorded two studio albums "The X Factor" (1995) and "Virtual XI" (1998), which is loved by many fans of the band. During the past two decades he's been back in Iron Maiden, Bruce kept singing of course, his songs, the classic tracks they did with Paul Di'Anno and also a few songs from the Blaze Bayley era. In an interview with Chris Jericho, he talked about those tracks. Bruce Dickinson talks about Maiden songs from Blaze Bayley era "(It's not that) I didn't have any interest in listening. I was just too busy doing my own stuff (When I was out of the band). So, it was kind of peripheral awareness, but in a way I was just, like, 'This is none of my business. I'm not in the band anymore.' And I wished Blaze well, 'cause when he joined the band, I thought, 'Wow.' 'Cause his voice is very different to mine. I loved what he was doing in Wolfsbane. And I thought, 'Well, this is… I hope it works out the right way.' And sadly it didn't. But I love Blaze. I think he's a great character. There's not a malicious bone in his body. He's a great guy." "You know what? I actually can't remember. But when I heard it, I was just, like, 'Well, I think I could put some blood on the walls with that.' To be honest with you, not all of the songs that they did with Blaze, I think, would necessarily suit my voice. Because some of the songs they wrote for Blaze are not really in my range — they're a little bit low." "Whilst Blaze would sing a particular tune with a lot of power, 'cause it was in his range, I would frankly struggle to make that tune sound as effective as Blaze, 'cause it's a little bit below where all the horsepower kicks in with my voice," Bruce Dickinson said (Transcribed by Blabbermouth). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxn1EAY3TsQ&list=RDyxn1EAY3TsQ&start_radio=1&pp=ygUbYnJ1Y2UgZGlja2luc29uIHRoZSBjbGFzbWFuoAcBThe post Bruce Dickinson talks about Maiden songs from Blaze Bayley era appeared first on Rock and Roll Garage.
