Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, DK. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. He attempted to write a few lyrics, but they were never standout lyrics. Plus he was fortunate enough to have guys around that could write lyrics. Appreciate you.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Keith. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. I agree, each lineup had its appeal. “13” was not that great. Especially when in comparison with the last record they did with RJD. Under the “Heaven & Hell” moniker. That was a killer album. Appreciate you.

I never knew that about Ozzy. I always loved how unapologetic he was. He was just being him and that is that.
Great write

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Nick. So glad you liked the story my friend. Yeah, he attempted writing lyrics a couple of times. He’s no Geezer Butler. However he did write the vocal melodies. I’m a fan of him, that’s just the facts when it comes to what he contributes to songwriting. Appreciate you.

So another case of the unexpected stealing the show & in this case, saving the day! Maybe record labels should start letting the music makers do their thing & see much it nets their infamous gawdawful bottom line. Gah…another intriguing story, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. Very true, but the business men and bean-counters think they know best. It’s always up to the talent to save the day. There are more to come my friend, glad you love the series. Appreciate you.

This makes me want to chase down a Woolly Mammoth and scribble my initials on his testicles.

Girl, you hit me up with Billy Joel? Love that song. Dk you know I am 4’11”? I will need an extension later to reach mammoth testicles. You are a little taller than me. You will have to climb on my shoulders. lol

Powerfully penned, Cipher. Really love the changes in the format, it mirrors transitioning like music does between verses, choruses, bridges, etc. Excellent piece of work my friend. Appreciate you.

You really set the tone here and painted wicked imagery with this. So much that I have goose flesh from it. Truly a masterpiece, Cipher. Love it! xx

That’s super fascinating history, Damian. I don’t really follow Black Sabath, but I am familiar with that particular tune. I’m stunned that Ozzy never wrote lyrics. The dude was super fortunate to hang around people who did.
