Live & Loud
Live & Loud is Ozzy Osbourne's double live album, released in June 1993. It was cut from the "No More Tours" run, the trek that was meant to be his farewell before retirement, and at the time it was billed as his last record. Zakk Wylde is on guitar, and the set sits between No More Tears and Ozzmosis in his story.
The big moment is "Black Sabbath", where the original Black Sabbath line-up joined Ozzy as guests for the Costa Mesa reunion shows. Other songs from those performances were left off. The live "I Don't Want to Change the World" won the 1994 Grammy for Best Metal Performance. A DVD followed, an early music release in that format, stitched together from several shows. That explains why Ozzy's clothes and Wylde's guitars change mid-song. The first pressings came with a metal speaker grille cover and tattoos.
