Each week, in Picture Book, we present an iconic photo from rock 'n' roll's past or present, accompanied with insightful commentary. Whether it's a famous picture or an unearthed rarity, these striking images will serve to illustrate the visual side of music.
Ozzy Osbourne, 1983
Ozzy Osbourne might not remember posing for this Halloween-worthy still, taken during a photo shoot for his 1983 album 'Bark at the Moon.' Still depressed over the death of bandmate Randy Rhoads, who was killed in a 1982 plane crash, Osbourne had taken to heavy drug use and has admitted to having only "very vague recollections" of the album's creation (yet fans still vividly remember his wolfy 'Bark at the Moon' video).
The former Black Sabbath frontman would clean up in the 1990s and again in the 2000s, and his satanic image would lighten with the advent of 'The Osbournes' reality TV show. Currently, the self-proclaimed "Prince of F---ing Darkness" is touring to promote his latest album, 'Scream' -- but, oddly, he doesn't have a gig lined up for Halloween.
