well I remember an album title, "carolina county ball" wasn't it??  I passed
on it, I've never tolerated him well, and I also remember a Hawkwind fan
that was a customer of mine, who did reviews, had him on his answering
machine
I think that now famous hand gesture actually originated with his Italian
mom, but I could just be wrong....
(I'm guilty of blowing black sabbath off right after I saw them with van
halen being the new unknown, the never say die tour I suppose...no ozzy, not
for me..)
now I think I'd rather just watch him than listen to him.....don't know....
