OZZY OSBOURNE - Kansas City 1986 · BLACK 2LP

Black vinyl double album in gatefold sleeve.

Background information über 'Kansas City 1986'

This electrifying live recording captures Ozzy Osbourne at a pivotal moment in his solo career, performing in Kansas City, Missouri in 1986. Coming off the success of "Bark at the Moon" (1983) and riding high on the release of "The Ultimate Sin", the Prince of Darkness delivered a blistering performance with his then-new lineup featuring drummer Randy Castillo and bassist Phil Soussan. The show perfectly demonstrates why Ozzy remained the undisputed king of heavy metal theatrics, balancing his trademark dark humor with genuinely menacing stage presence.

The setlist is a masterclass in pacing, opening with the howling title track from "Bark At The Moon" before diving into the controversial "Suicide Solution". What makes this recording special is how it captures both Ozzy's solo material and his Sabbath roots - from deep cuts like "Never Know Why" and "Thank God For The Bomb" to crowd-pleasers like "Mr. Crowley" and "Shot In The Dark". The show culminates with Black Sabbath classics "Iron Man" and "Paranoid", proving that even as a solo artist, Ozzy never forgot his metal heritage. Previously unreleased on vinyl, this broadcast recording finally gets the treatment it deserves.

For fans of: Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Dio, Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.
