Born into poverty--the entire family slept in a single room--Ozzy
Osbourne endured a challenging childhood. It was a struggle from
which he sought shelter in music, and his time as a member of Black
Sabbath revolutionized heavy metal and catapulted him to worldwide
fame. With the acclaim, however, came the excesses and heartbreaks;
and in this engaging and revealing autobiography, Osbourne writes
as candidly about his struggles with addictive substances and the
loss of close friends as he does about his legendary stage
performances and tours, and also discusses his more recent
reinvention as a reality TV star. This is the definitive insider's
account of the heavy metal scene from the 1970s through the 1990s
and a more general cultural history of that same period. Heavy
metal, rock and roll, and pop culture fans alike will find this
essential reading. "Nacido en la pobreza--su familia entera dormia
en una sola habitacion--Ozzy Osbourne tuvo una ninez dificil. Fue
una lucha de la cual consiguio un refugio en la musica, y su tiempo
como un miembro de Black Sabbath sirvio tanto para revolucionar al
heavy metal como para catapultarlo a la fama. Con la aclamacion,
sin embargo, vinieron tambien los excesos y desenganos; y en esta
autobiografia simpatica y reveladora, Osbourne escribe tan
francamente sobre su lucha con las substancias adictivas y la
perdida de amigos cercanos asi como sobre sus interpretaciones y
giras legendarias, y discute tambien su reinvencion reciente como
una estrella de la telerrealidad. Este es el relato definitivo del
mundo del heavy metal desde los 70 hasta los 90 y una historia
cultural general del mismo periodo. Los fanaticos del heavy metal,
el rock y la cultura popular consideraran esto lectura
imprescindible."
