About the product On December 3, 1948, at number 14 Lodge Road in a small town called Aston, baby John Michael Osborne was born, the fourth of six children in a poor working-class family.

But the life story and path to fame of one of the most famous musicians on the planet cannot be compared with his memories of them. As ominous as Ozzy may appear on stage, his keen sense of humor and self-irony make this autobiography a real treasure for any connoisseur of rock music.

He remembered everything he could, and the book of these memories turned out to be incredibly exciting, charismatic, personal and truly funny. «Let’s just say I’m not the damn Encyclopedia Britannica. What you’re reading here came out of the jelly I call my brain when I asked him how my life went. No more, no less …»
