The story of how Ozzy Osbourne was fired from Black SabbathThe original incarnation of Black Sabbath are practically like The Beatles of heavy metal in many respects. But even with a maniac like Ozzy Osbourne, there came a point where the band needed to call it a day with their frontman. But it’s not like Osbourne was all that enthused about where Sabbath was going, either. I mean, take a listen to the last two albums that he had worked on with Sabbath, Technical Ecstasy and Never Say Die. Even ‘The Prince of Darkness’ claimed that Sabbath Bloody Sabbath was the last “great” Sabbath record in his mind, so there were definitely kinks in the armour.
