As we continue our tribute to the late, great Ozzy Osbourne, we revisit one of the most electrifying chapters of his legendary career with the creation of “Crazy Train.”

After being kicked out of from Black Sabbath, the very band he helped make iconic, many believed Ozzy’s time in the spotlight was over. Battling addiction, depression, and self-doubt, even Ozzy himself thought it might be the end. But then came a spark: a young, virtuosic guitarist named Randy Rhoads. Together, they would forge a sound that launched one of the greatest second acts in rock history.

With the release of his 1980 solo debut Blizzard of Ozz, Ozzy came roaring back, led by the unstoppable riff and manic energy of “Crazy Train.” Though it missed the charts at the time, it has since become a rock anthem for the ages and a defining moment in both Ozzy’s and Randy’s legacies.

This is the story of reinvention, risk, and the resurrection of a rock legend. “Crazy Train” wasn’t just a comeback—it was the battle cry of a man who refused to be counted out. And today, as we remember Ozzy Osbourne, we ride that train in his honor.

All aboard… for one last journey with the Prince of Darkness.
