What Are Zakk Wylde's Five Favorite Albums? | Stranded

[@demigod1013]

Goes to show how associative/ personalized musical taste can be. No one is the same.

[@texasturner2313]

Elton John was a music influence to so many Hard Rock and Metal musicians.

[@LetsGoMetsGo33]

Dream Theater cover Funeral for a friend. Flotsam & jetsom do Saturday nights alright for fighting. Zakk does a version of Candle in the wind.

[@robnykulaik7337]

That gives me a new respect and love for Zakk knowing he holds Elton John's Greatest hits and Captain Fantastic albums in such high regard. Those albums were giving to me when I was kid of 7 or 8 years old. Actually it was the cassette tapes but I love those albums equally....and wore those tapes out!! Just perfect music!! Awesome!!

[@erictrenbeath9680]

The Writ, one of Ozzy's finest moments. He wrote it and boy did he sing it!

[@RobertSmith-lg7jp]

Was going to make the same comment . Has to be the most underrated Sabbath song .

[@angusorvid8840]

I agree with Zakk, these are solid albums. I really love Frank Marino's Mahogany Rush Live. One of the best live albums ever. I still listen to it regularly. Frank is not only one of the best guitarists ever but a superb singer and songwriter. And his band is always great.

[@blacksunglasses4745]

Great list and he’s 100% right about Sabotage. It’s one of Ozzy’s best. Check out his performance on Megalomania if you’ve never heard it.

[@ourgreatreset]

Yes!! Frank Marino and the Mahogany Rush Live! That would be on my list too.

[@audieconrad8995]

There are sooooo many who DON'T know who that is...their loss!

[@waynethera2712]

I guess I have some homework. I have heard of Frank and Mahogany Rush, but not the live album.

[@gwzirkle]

Frank Marino is a criminally underrated guitarist and also a criminally underrated vocalist.

[@kevinstrang11]

1] David Bowie - Diamond Dogs 2] Aerosmith - Get Your Wings 3] Led Zeppelin - IV 4] Beatles - Revolver 5] Motley Crue - S/T 1994

[@ZemarRed]

Zakk is like if Jimmie Page, Elton John, and Thor merged into one person.

[@jismism9515]

HA > Thor!!! I remember him w/2 dogs on album cover...Jeez?

[@billwang5462]

Jimmy

[@jironthunder7519]

...as well as a dash of The Punisher!!! Zakk is awesomeness personified!

[@mr.smithgnrsmith7808]

Except unlike Page, he hasn’t STOLEN his hits….

[@MetaphysicalMusician]

Mahogany Rush 🔥

[@DPK101710]

Zakk Wylde is DEAD ON about Ozzy's vocals on Sabotage.

[@scottlosey4978]

100 percent agree....similarly Lemmy never sounded better than the Ace of Spades album

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

@@scottlosey4978 lemmy was a B leaguer though

[@zamfirtoth6441]

For me I'd have to take 10. 10: grand funk red album 9:skynyrd 2nd helping 8:zeppelin 2 7:yes album 6:sabbath paranoid 5:skynyrd pronounced 4:rush fly by night 3:floyd wish you were here 2:yes close to the edge 1: yes relayer Honorable mention: zztops debut, joe Walsh so what, moving pictures, 2112, dark side of the moon,molly hatchet flirtin with disaster, physical graffiti, permanent waves, sabbath debut, chicago CTA, bad company debut.

[@richshields6692]

Great selection Zack. Its interesting that as a musician,you mostly play one type of music, but you're influenced by other genre's. So cool

[@chickentwisties2298]

Indeed aside from Sabbath I don't hear any influence of those bands/albums in his music.

[@vampyros1]

You will that common thread amongst great musicians… they’re open-minded and eclectic far beyond most of their audiences parameters of listening choices.

[@MoreMeRecording]

Love having Elton on there. Madman is for sure a strander for me. Wow, Frank Marino? Thought only us Canucks really got that guy. Sweet.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

Diary of a MAdman is arguably the greatest album ever written.

[@bryanluntz1603]

Elton is there too Grew up with his music Captain Fantastic👍

[@AtomicPunx]

Believe it or not Frank Marino is huge down here in the south (Texas) as well. I grew up on that album being raised in a Country and Western environment. Fortunately I had Uncles that were the exact oposite of Country! To this day Marino is one of my favorite gutarist of all time!

[@bryanluntz1603]

@@AtomicPunx I agree Marino n Mahogany Rush Super Talents

[@danielthomas8507]

kiwi here..loved Frank for 40 yrs cheers.

[@williamwalker146]

I'm going with Zakk; glad he insisted Sabotage was definitely a Sabbath classic.

[@jeffholliday8304]

Yeah the Frank Marino album is a classic man I think he hadn’t been out of prison that long and he just nailed it Great album

[@highcurrent1125]

Hell yeah.... Elton's greatest hits, in a big way, got me on the road to Rock n' Roll also! "Break a leg" with the new project Zakk!

[@markandersen5867]

Zakk, has great taste, very knowledgeable and very respectful of the forefathers of rock. I love the latest BLS: Doom Crew Inc., killer album, Ruins one my favorites, loaded with face melting guitar solos.

[@macoediv]

That would be cool to hear Zakk play Crocodile Rock.

[@tdunph4250]

The Frank Marino caught my attention. Extremely underrated artist from Canada.

[@JS45678]

Zakk is the most confident guitarist/vocalist I’ve ever watched. He plays fearlessly and aggressive as all hell. 🤘😝🤘

[@NitroModelsAndComics]

My list has not changed in many years. 1. Return To Forever Romantic Warrior 2. Rush Hemispheres 3. Down NOLA 4. Sabbath Master Of Reality 5. Soundgarden Badmotorfinger

[@Wildlonesome77]

Good taste,especially Frank Marino. So underrated, and just a beast on guitar. Zac is a supernatural beast. Good pics.

[@clarkpitts5393]

Before Zakk named any albums I had him picking Physical Graffiti.. Can't go wrong with Song Remains The Same, though.

[@bobc.5698]

Mine is 1. Van Halen Best of Volume 1 2. Elton John GH 3. Frank Sinatra Greatest Hits 4. Elvis Greatest Hits 5. Led Zeppelin BBC sessions

[@z-z-z-z]

led zeppelin "bbc sessions?" shouldn't that be bwc sessions...

[@scottlosey4978]

Kiss Alive for my desert island album

[@illiniheel67]

I bought Doom Crew Inc. on vinyl (of course)...pure white...beautiful and, also of course, AMAZING music.

[@Artofwilliamsburgva]

Sabotage is my favorite album

[@toddm9501]

Check out Elton John's Central Park concert. Glad I was a fan in the 70's till now. Zach has great taste

[@karolkaczorowski8660]

Sabotage is one of the best Sabbaths albums!

[@WHAC420]

Zakk is so gregarious and fun to listen to

[@richardfromjersey]

not long ago i happened to download that FRANK MARINO AND MAHOGANY RUSH LIVE ! listened to that back in high school ! thats so cool ZAC and also saying HI !

[@robertanderson1457]

I know for a fact that Book of shadows from zakk would be in my top 5.

[@pskully57]

Good Choices! Some of those are mine too, like Frank Marino Live.

[@chrismascher8667]

Although I love the Mahogany Rush Live pick. I don't consider live, greatest hits or comp albums "studio albums". Otherwise Ild just pick the K-Tell comp albums "best of" every decade...

[@johnnysurfs]

Five? Ted Nugent - Double Live Gonzo Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington Pat Metheny - Bright Size LIfe Alan Holdsworth - I.O.U. Rush - A Farewell to Kings. Those albums made my brain grow and taught me that being yourself was the best way to be.

[@curdledmayonnaise]

pat metheny and allan holdsworth. Nice bro, nice.

[@hailmaryrecordings8255]

Sabatage is my favorite sabbath album. Underrated.

[@Dave_Wight_The_Rock_Oracle]

great album but how he left off Diary of a madman is tragic

[@joekelley5121]

Yacht Rock essentials? Absolutely!

[@ericbrewer2409]

3:32 Thats the live album, Zakk was talking about the studio album Song Remains the Same.

[@Cincinnatus1869]

No such album.

[@markblue5375]

Hey Zakk why not get some friends together and do a tribute to Frank Marino !

[@rkenseth]

His picks surprised me.

[@sepehraslerasuoli1918]

Zakk Wylde music it's a only music that I like.God bless him.

[@williamhatfield580]

I won't be happy until the album of Polka covers , what's up zakk , you said you were gonna do it.... waiting!

[@curdledmayonnaise]

my fav, not albums but band time periods. pantera - 90's and 2000 ozzy - 1980-1992 metallica - 1984-1992 slipknot 1999-2004 exhorder - 1990-92 van halen until 1993 sabbath 1970-1985 (and the 2013 album too is real nice) i could go on, you get the idea....

Two thumbs up for Sabotage and Mahogany Rush Live. I bought each one when they first came out. Surprised that Zakk lead with Yacht Rock (yuck)!

[@thunderbirdbrown3002]

Lord Zakk's picks is way cool 🤘🏿😎 and The stories associated with them.Sabatoge and Zeppelin is in my playlist already,now I'm gonna seek Those other jams Getcha Pull 🥃-CHEERS 🍻

He's certainly correct about Sabotage. Easily Sabbaths best.
