I love all music, but personally I don't like to listen to Lennon or Joplin and I flogged to death the Doors in the 80s when I was going through a retro phase. I can't stomache country and western music either But to dismiss any of them as a talentless twit just because I don't like their style of singing would be more a reflection of my narrow mindedness then the singer's ability.
I never said anything about his singing style did I? Nor did I mention whether or not I like it. I actually quite like a lot of early Sabbath stuff. I was merely making a point that he doesn't compare with real talent. Joplin, Lennon and Morrison were all true artists. Ozzy was (is) a drunk / drug fucked singer. I know that a lot of singers / artists take drugs but the fact that his own mates fired him for being so selfish and hopeless makes it hard for me to have much respect for him.
