Ozzy Osbourne is celebrating the 30th birthday of his No More Tears album on September 17. In celebration of the anniversary, Elliott Fullam of Little Punk People spoke to guitarist Zakk Wylde about recording the album and his impressions of the music. Wylde had nothing but positive things to say, and remembers getting chills the first time he heard "Mama I'm Coming Home".
"I have nothing but great memories of making that record with Ozz, and I've always said, with Ozzy, it's just a miracle that any work ever gets done because we're always constantly laughing and eating pizza. You know what I mean? When we made that record, when we listened back to it, we were really excited about it.
"And when Ozzy did the vocal track on 'Mama I'm Coming Home' I was just getting chills when I heard that one. And then for 'Time After Time,' Ozz calling me up when he had put the harmonies on, he was like 'Zakk, you gotta check this out!' and you know, putting it up on the phone."
Ozzy Osbourne will release a 30th anniversary edition of No More Tears on the album's birthday, September 17. You can check out a very special version of "Hellraiser" featuring Motörhead frontman Lemmy on vocals here, and pre-orders for No More Tears are available here.
