I know Heaven and Hell has been critically acclaimed as a landmark metal album, but I am not really a big fan of the late Ronnie James Dio, although I do admit he was talented, I always preferred Ozzy and didn't really consider it Black Sabbath without him. He is the voice of Black Sabbath as far as I am concerned. If Ozzy is not involved, I'm not interested.
But, even with Ozzy, Technical Fantasy and Never Say Die both sucked. The band strayed too far from their strengths and tired unsuccessfully expand their sound to new influences with those 2 efforts.
