Here are my thoughts at least regarding the Montreal theories. FHA is definitely the only song from Montreal on Ozzy Live as far as guitar tracks go. As mentioned, there are some vocal intros that were taken from Montreal and even at least one shout to the crowd during a song (Believer) from Montre...

Yup, all in the book.

No, most of the show is not from Montreal. There are many fills that are different. And drums are drums, most of what they did sounds the same from show to show. The only song that is the same is FHA. This is just to much conspiracy theory. You should compare each song one at a time, back to back, ...

Yes that pic was in the book. I just received my book the other day and have been taking it in every night since. It's incredible and worth every penny. I was floored to see the up close pics taken of Randy's gear. It was chilling to read about Randy's family and the lengths they have gone to preser...

Suicide solution doesn't sound like it's from the Southampton show... The intros are different. Could be wrong. Do we know for sure it's the Southampton show? its not only the guitar solo is from southampton..ofcourse it could be a different show but its definately from the 1980 uk tour. Oh ok. Yea...

In really listening to this new show back to back with the Montreal 81 show, it's very obvious that all bed tracks are from Montreal. There may be slight talking or phrases that are edited out, or edited in for that matter, but most of the stuff comes from Montreal. I went song by song and so much m...

I can confirm that the following tracks do indeed include Bob and Lee on drums: Mr. Crowley Revelation Steal Away the night Suicide Solution 3 Sabbath tunes It is very obvious to me, as per my previous post that the drums on this recording is off somehow and I knew that they weren't tommy. In fact ...

Well I've listened to it 3 or 4 times all the way through, and the one thing I pick up when listening through headphones is the drums seem off somehow. I would venture to say that I would not be shocked if we found out that the drum track is not Tommy A, but redone by someone else. I have been a dr...

I was getting a little disappointed by how Amazon has been handling this book. I ordered from Music Dispatch and it shipped immediately! I don't know what's going on with Amazon lately. Their service has really gone down hill over the past years. don't blame Amazon, it's all about distribution. How...

How do they sound, and hold up?

Just got my book today from UK Amazon, shipping was very fast. At first glance, the book looks great. Nice pictures and some I have never seen before. Can't wait to read and I will give my impressions once done. I have to say I am a fan of Joel's, and really enjoyed the book he did on Cliff Burton, ...

Well.....what is your review of the book?

I totally agree with you Fortress. I am a bass player (primarily) and I also play guitar, and there is absolutely no way that is Bob on bass during Crowley. The second solo totally gives it away. Rudy plays really rudimentary stuff underneath Randy's whailing solo. Bob used to really "spice it...

Crowley is not Southampton. Back on the 80' tour Crowley didn't have the same concert ending Ozzy has done on every tour since. From 81 - present they do a double concert ending. In 80 they did just a single concert ending for that song. I think the spotlight solo could be Southampton. But the cd i...
