    On my Project turntable this LP sounds stunning, and it happens to be my favourite Ozzy album.

      It doesn’t sound right. The songs are good but it sounds flat.

        I have the original vinyl. The track listings on the rear of the cover are all wrong! And the last track, Shot in the Dark is about 4:16. Some folks have suggested it should be longer as they butchered it for the CD pressing.

          Not a great album, and most of that is down to Ron Nevison's shite production because some of the songs are good, why Ozzy could not stick with Max Norman is beyond me, flat music, vocals like a robot, no dynamic whatsoever.

            Pretty lifeless copy if you ask me. Not sure if the original recording was poor or this pressing is an issue.
