Description
"Tribute" is a live album by heavy metal vocalist Ozzy Osbourne. The album was released on March 19, 1987, five years to the day after the death of guitarist Randy Rhoads. The album was released in memory of Rhoads, guitarist for Osbourne's band between 1979 and 1982 who died in a plane crash while on tour in Florida in 1982. The album also includes studio outtakes of Rhoads recording the classical-influenced acoustic guitar piece, "Dee", which Rhoads wrote for his mother Delores, and which was originally included on Osbourne's debut solo album "Blizzard of Oz". The majority of the album from "I Don't Know" through to "Paranoid" was recorded live in Cleveland, Ohio on May 11, 1981, with the exception of an extended guitar solo in the song "Suicide Solution" which was recorded in Montreal on July 28, 1981, and inserted into the song. "Goodbye to Romance" and "No Bone Movies" are taken from an early tour in support of the Blizzard of Oz album, possibly from Southampton on October 2, 1980. These two tracks feature bassist Bob Daisley and drummer Lee Kerslake. This is the ORIGINAL US Double Vinyl Gatefold Pressing on the CBS Records Label. The catalog # on the spine is: ZX2 40714. The bar code matrix # is: 0 7464-40714-1. Comes with all original inserts, please see pictures. Vinyl's are visually graded by Goldmine standards as EX+. Labels are extremely clean. Cover is graded as EX. I personally never played this copy as I had it on cd, and wanted to keep it in "pristine" condition. I also always wanted a copy of this particular recording on vinyl. Record has been stored in a heavy duty anvil case since 2006 and comes from a smoke / pet free home. Shipped following business day as soon as payment is received. Media Mail ($6) will take at least 3 to 5 weeks due to being shipped by boat from Hawaii, not air! Priority Mail is $13, not $7 from Hawaii. International bidders please contact.
