OZZY OSBOURNE "Mama, I'm Coming Home" Zakk Wylde playthrough | RIFFHARD

[@TheDoug625]

This album still has what I consider to be the sickest, raunchiest, most evil, and most perfect guitar tone.

[@AudioStorm1980]

Yes....that is THE tone. But now his guitars are all over distorted EMG crap. That album tone is why I bought a guitar at 13 and lol never achieved...well cuz I'm not zakk.

[@bartib1151]

@@AudioStorm1980 he used emg pickups on that album

[@JamieDynan]

Agreed. Peak ZW imo in terms of sound, song writing and playing style

[@CrusTeek]

@@AudioStorm1980 Yeah, he always used EMGs, even on No More Tears. But I get what you mean, he nowadays use too much chorus or whatever effect he's got going on, even on rhythm parts, and that's what makes it kinda blurry and not tight like on No More Tears.

[@noyourewrong599]

@@AudioStorm1980 lol isn't he known to use EMG since forever xD

[@jamesbilitz907]

No one bends strings like Zakk Wylde!

[@allencastleman7617]

...and that's why he's Zakk Wylde....

[@PakaShreds]

Thank you guys so much for having Zakk do this! This really shows how amazing he is

[@jesterraj]

The Boss himself!

[@stacychamness9077]

​@@jesterrajYes sir!! 😎👍💪🤘🎸 Zakk is a BEAST!!

[@jesterraj]

One of my favorite player's

[@TempleOfTheMartyrs]

ZAKK IS THE REASON WE STARTED OUR BAND

[@minkorrh]

Randy Rhoads was a phenom, but Zakk is my favourite Ozzy plucker, and this - my favourite Ozzy album

[@squesh2059]

This is just a masterpiece !!! One of the greatest songs of all time

[@johnbraucher1499]

Favorite solo from zakk. Dunno why. Just has a special place in my heart, lot of memories.

[@Man-dl9ml]

Great solo with a great feel! Really laid back compared to some of his other work but man is it soulful !

[@carryingfire286]

Check out "Bridge to Cross". Super underrated emotional Zakk solo.

[@brianolson_music]

Agree, one of my favorite solos ever. Not super difficult or anything, but just really perfect- fits the song so well- it’s like it wrote itself or something magical like that

[@DanaOrtiz]

In this river is a killer solo from him. Rip dimebag

[@Chris-Rife]

No more tears for me but mamma I am coming home is great.

[@johnbraucher1499]

That abstract middle acoustic section where the guitar almost sounds like it's reversed because of the chord variations is just beautiful.

[@mwbrada]

I was a huge fan of Zakk once he first broke in with Ozzy. Loved No Rest for the Wicked, and Hero is still my favorite Ozzy song ever, but I feel Zakk never got the credit he deserved for just how amazing No More Tears was across the board. I think his songwriting skills and solo creation just coalesced on this disc. There is not a single track that is lacking. Hellraiser is personal favorite- if that doesn't get your adrenaline going to play along with you may be in asystole... oh wait I Don't Want to Change the World is my favorite... oh I give up, this whole disc just rips and tears from start to finish.

[@joeblo9111]

wwhhaatt?

[@dwreal]

Great song! RIP Lemmy Kilmister

[@yettiman2817]

He reminds me of Rik Emmit from Triumph. Can play anything classical jazz rock anything.. and make it sound good

[@seanfalconer7182]

I remember seeing Ozzy at the Shoreline Theater in Mountain View, CA. and it was Zakk's first tour with him. Anyway they took a break from Ozzy and Sabbath and for about 20 minutes Zakk laid down the absolute PUREST Hendrix you could ever hear. I mean he did Hendrix better than Hendrix himself!!! But Zakk has defined his very own sound which cannot be mistaken, thus establishing himself as one of the true "Guitar gods".

[@quintonj.6576]

I hate to say it, and I’ll give credit where it’s due cause he pioneered a lot of the play style most of the younger guys followed after him, but a lot of people have done Hendrix better then Hendrix. SRV did for sure, but like I said that’s not to take credit from where it’s due, SRV loved Jimi, he just played it so much cleaner every time.

[@seanfalconer7182]

@@quintonj.6576 😎👍🏻

[@nic8577]

@@quintonj.6576 I’ve always said SRV played Hendrix better then Hendrix. I think you made a good point it’s just cleaner, but also I think that Hendrix sloppiness and mistakes (which he admits he made all the time) is part of the greatness.

[@TheRVSN]

"But Zakk has defined his very own sound which cannot be mistaken" - whatever he plays (Hendrix or Sabbath) one can say it is him.

[@alexanderkuptsov6117]

No More Tears is one of the best Ozzy's albums.

[@Grizzly406]

Fun fact by the numbers of sales and downloads… it’s Ozzy’s best album. Numbers and stats don’t lie.

[@sweetwilliam5150]

Zakk is one of the greats. Absolutely loved this.

[@Pablo-sancho]

Not one of the greats but the greatest alive! EVH will always be KING!

[@TheUnseenWaffle]

You can here the cry's of joy and sadness in that guitar solo. Ughh if that don't make you feel anything idk what will.

[@escargotomy]

Like that! "Fuck yeah" is such an understatement. The most beautiful metal song of the 90's.

[@tubetubeunit]

Sing by ozzy play by zack written by lemmy.....masterpiece right there think about it!!🤘

[@MrWilljthrill]

would be better if ozzy actually wrote it

[@josearalat]

I think Lemmy only wrote the lyrics.

[@mattbarnes9296]

i thought elton wrote this for ozzy? could be wrong

[@jafferscakes7063]

my favourite guitarist and one of my favourite songs ever

[@monkeyhammock6233]

I always get goosebumps hearing those fucking pinch harmonics man!!!

[@zerocool__]

Such a powerful song. Every time I hear it I can’t help but get a little watery eyed.

[@taelordavey4360]

Goose bumps every time he plays his solo

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

I grew up on Ozzy's solo career. I never disliked anything I'd heard but No More Tears is the album that made me LOVE Ozzy.

[@ognir66]

Ozzy's bass player Bob Daisley has A LOT to do with the shape and structure of this tune along with the rest of the album. He also wrote most of the lyrics.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

I grew up on Ozzy's second bandm Blizzard of Ozz No More Tears is not nearly as good as those Blizzard albums, this much more commercial with weak ;lyrics

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

@@ognir66 Not on this album he only played bass. And in fact the lyrics are much weaker than prior albums because he leveragted the producer and Lemmy who are not as gifted as Bob

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

@@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle Believe me, I went back and really dug into Blizzard and Diary after I fully got into Ozzy.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

@@InfectiousGroovePodcast so you know those are superior in songwriting to No More Tears..

[@quintonj.6576]

I could listen to nothing but Ozzy works, and be content for the rest of my life. Every Sabbath album, every Ozzy album, everything Ozzy was featured in on the 80’s like Close My Eyes Forever by Lita Ford, but to get to hear Zakk’s licks completely separate from Ozzy is truly a masterpiece, he plays so clean. He’s like a mix of Randy’s classical sound, and Kirk Hammett’s speed, with his own Barbarian screech on it. 💜🖤

[@deltawhiskey1398]

Perfect example of playing for the song...not trying to show off any crazy shredding or amazing technique...just playing melodically what needs to be played with feeling and emotion and great tone...mixing in beautiful classical stylings....bluesy pentatonic licks....a soaring solo with great tone. This boys and girls is the difference between guitarists who can put together a memorable song...and the guys who are technically great...but whose music has no warmth and no soul.

[@seanwatkins5510]

The pure heart and soul poured out through the guitar. Don't even need the lyrics wow, just wow!

[@js5584]

Epic riff and epic solo. Zakk is an incredibly versatile "metal" guitarist. His acoustic skills are also phenomenal.

[@spicyoctopus]

I adore those first few notes that aren’t repeated in the rest of the song; just a cool little phrasing to kick things off.

[@wayne387]

Zakk has gotten me through so much bs in the world. Last of the real

Stairway to ZAKK

[@peachmelba1000]

I love that these don't include vocals (all due respect to Ozzy). You can really hear the layering and orchestration. Makes you realize the vocals are almost always far too loud lol

[@BrianOboylemusic]

I’m a guitar player and your right …. So much great music in the nuances and I get “distracted “ by the excellent lyrics… this is awesome…

[@BigTruck-IE-Fool]

Especially since Ozzy uses auto tune on all his latest projects. You can literally hear the synthetics in everything now.

[@tommystratpaul]

Totally agree! I often feel the mixes are not really balanced and that vocals are too loud. You miss out on so much of this INCREDIBLE writing and playing that I haven't payed sufficiently attention too even though I have listened to this song on repeat so many times

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

I alw2ays thought zakk did the best version of this song live...his vocals are better.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

@@BrianOboylemusic is that a joke? excellent lyrics? this is written about his POS wife and are cliche

[@troywills3751]

That’s a pro, right there. When I was kid, watching Larry Bird had me chomping at the bit to get my ball and run out the door to practice dribbling, shooting, then shots off the dribble until the neighbors called mom and asked her to get me to stop so they could sleep….After watching Zakk Wyler meticulously demonstrate flawless technique with seamless transitions…I hope the neighbors are in the mood to hear everything I know ‘D-Standard’ cause Mom don’t call the shots anymore!!

[@LoneWolfSnowplowing]

who is Zakk Wyler?

[@robmccoy5207]

Finally, a decent instrumental of this song. Thank you, Father Wylde!

[@BritishRosie-es3zr]

Always loved Zakk's tone and vibrato. Any riff played by him is immediately recognisable as him playing. Those squawking harmonic squeals and just the right amount of chorus on the rhythm parts.

[@trainofthough0242]

Love that it's an actual playthrough and none of that mimed crap so many other guys do.

[@maddash9070]

I remember early 90s hunting for tabs in guitar world magazines and learning this song. The basics at least. Listening over and over and finding the little nuances the tabs didn’t show. Fighting to the front row at concerts just to see how the guitarists formed the chords or what fingers they used. Wish the internet was around when I was a kid. Lol. My ribs getting smashed on the gates up front focusing on breathing and catching the guitarist up close was not easy. Good memories though. Ha!

Damn, Lemmy had the goods. A great songwriting trio.

[@TIGERGUTS]

Saw Ozzy in i think 2009. I was up front and Zakk was playing intro right in front of me. He was drunkas hell, spitting in the air and trying to catch it, big top hat on and stuff. He goes from the clean 12 string to the dirty 6 string and he kept strumming the 12 and fingering the 6 for a good 8 bars and didn't realise what he was doing , playing with all the switches and knobs and looking at his tech like WTF. Then he had a moment and realised what he was doing HAHAHAH, he had the best look on his face when he realised. Silly Billy! hahahaha. He also threw out a gibson V/SG into the audience that night.

[@ratttttyyy]

I was given this record by some random van driver when I was on work experience, around 15 years old. This song always stuck with me. Not because of the guitar, which is obviously great, but with the fact that Ozzy, the Prince of fucking Darkeness, really just loves his Mum. Bless him.
