Pro Reviews: Prince Of Darkness [Box Set]
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews It's surprising that with all of the media attention aimed at Ozzy Osbourne, the selfcrowned "Prince of Darkness," since his debut as the perpetually numb rock star dad on The Osbournes, it took so long for his incredibly savvy marketingmachine/wife to put out a proper box set. Here you have an artist who fronted one of the world's most influential and coveted heavy metal bands and put out a string of excellent solo albums and singles, then went on television and became the world's most gawkedat wreck on the pop culture highway since Michael Jackson turned white and hijacked Diana Ross' nose. The fourdisc set aims to satisfy fans of both Osbourne personas. Discs one and two storm through the singer's '80s and '90s solo heydays with an emphasis on previously unreleased live recordings ("Goodbye to Romance"), Bsides ("Spiders"), as well as classics like "Flying High Again" and "Crazy Train." Disc three is a compilation of bizarre collaborations with everyone from Kim Basinger ("Shake Your Head [Let's Go to Bed]") to Miss Piggy ("Born to Be Wild") to Dweezil Zappa ("Staying Alive") that culminates in an oddly affecting ballad ("I Ain't No Nice Guy") with Motörhead mouthpiece Lemmy Kilmister. Disc four features newly recorded covers, some that work (King Crimson's "21st Century Schizoid Man" and Mountain's "Mississippi Queen" were tailormade for Osbourne's wily vocal style) and some that don't ("For What It's Worth" and "All the Young Dudes," the latter featuring a very manic Ian Hunter guest vocal that sounds more like an old man stuck in his bathroom than it does a rowdy call to arms). Osbourne states in the beginning of the impressive 40page booklet that he "wasn't terribly happy about the prospect of repackaging and reissuing another compilation of the same songs you can get on another one of my albums," and the care that's been put into heeding his sentiments is apparent throughout, but one has to wonder whether or not it's fair to the man himself. - James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide |

Pros: It is OZZY!
Cons: Half of it I could care less about
Sooner or later, Ozzy had to put out a box set. I was expecting a real treat...and this is not it. This is a four-cd set and the first two cds are cool. It is most of his well-known stuff and a lot of it are unreleased demos. That is cool. The rest it not. Let me explain. I have always thought that a box set should be more than just a giant greatest hits set. It should be a gift to the fans filled with live stuff, hard-to-find songs and unreleased stuff. Take the recent Bon Jovi set. It is three or four cds of totally unreleased stuff. Not that I am comparing Bon Jovi to the Ozzman. The other two cds here are cover songs and and Ozzy doing songs with other artists. I applaud Ozzy doing something different with his set but when I spend the mega bucks it takes to buy a box set, I want to hear music from that artist. Not others. Plus, when an artist puts out a cd of just cover tunes, I think that is laziness. With the time and effort it takes to make a good album, why not write and record original material? A cover tune is nice to hear every now and then, but an entire cd? I don't think so. Considering Ozzy's long career, he must have dozens of unreleased songs lying around. There may even be stuff that he recorded with Randy and never released. I notice that even the hard to find "You lookin' at me lookin' at you" from the re-release of Blizzard of Ozz is not even on here. That would have been great to see here. Ozzy, you are the Godfather of metal, but I expected more from you. ...
