McCartney Times

In many people’s eyes, Ozzy Osbourne begins when The Beatles end. When ‘The Fab Four’ became the great soloists in the spring of 1970, Black Sabbath had already begun to usher the flower power colours of the sixties towards darker shades with their debut single ‘Evil Woman’ released earlier that year. However, as ‘The Prince of Darkness’ would tell you, he really begins when The Beatles burst the kaleidoscope of their oeuvre into brilliance.

It is a mark of their impact that over the course of their brief tenure, they inspired the musicians of the future, then encouraged them to scurry off in their own direction. Ozzy was one of those youthful fans dragged up by the bootstraps into a new bohemian world. As he once proudly proclaimed, “When I heard the Beatles. I knew what I wanted to do,” when speaking to Blabbermouth in 2019.

Enthusiastically adding: “My son says to me, Dad, I like the Beatles, but why do you go so crazy? The only way I can describe it, is like this, ‘Imagine you go to bed today, and the world is black and white and then you wake up, and everything’s in colour. That’s what it was like!’ That’s the profound effect it had on me.”
