You may think you know Ozzy, but it seems like there’s a million stories out there. Some might be true, others likely folklore passed on from metal fan to metal fan. Hey, there was a time before the internet brought all truth together.

Did you know Ozzy tattooed himself while in jail? That one is true. It’s also true that the cough you hear on Sweet Leaf isn’t Osbourne’s, it’s actually Iommi, who wrote a lot of Sabbath’s songs with Geezer Butler.

You’ve heard of Zakk Wylde, but did you know it was actually Howard Stern that gets credit for bringing him and Ozzy together. Oz was looking for a guitarist, taking the search on the Stern show, which Wylde listened to a lot.
