Synopsis

Album Description

Thanks to MTV, Ozzy Osbourne and his family are household names--sort of a Beverly Hillbillies for the 21st century. Black and Bluegrass: A Tribute to Ozzy Osbourne and Black Sabbath couldn't agree more. Trading Ozzy's anguished vocals for high-lonesome harmonies, and screaming guitars for lightning-quick banjos, this collection gives the music of heavy metal's founding father the bluegrass treatment. Performed by Iron Horse and featuring such classics as "Crazy Train," "Paranoid" and "Mama, I'm Coming Home," Black and Bluegrass cooks up a tribute as good as mama's cornbread--with a side of chicken heads.

CD Reviews

Hillbilly Sabbath !

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Interesting to listen to Sabbath and Ozzy songs with a hillbilly bluegrass twist. My first reaction was hysterical laughter, the more you listen to the Cd the more respect you have towards the artist. The banjo playing or whatever instrument they are using is intricate & complex. Not sure how they can play so many notes so fast. It's really not bad. If they were to release a part two with pure Black Sabbath songs I would definitely buy it as well. This CD only has three Sabbath songs. The Ozzy songs are good. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath is the best. If you like Ozzy & Sabbath buy this."

Lots Of Fun

"I love all kinds of music. I bought a CD of CSN&Y done in a "Bluegrass" version. Thought it was well done. Found the same people did an album of "Hendrix". Just a bit "reaching"!

Iron Horse on the other hand has "nailed" Ozzy. Hard to believe Ozzy's music could be done in a "bluegrass style". It works. I found something interesting in the music translation. Compare "Mama,I'm Coming Home" with the "Beatles" song "You Like Me Too Much". Listen to them "back to back"."
