Whether you discovered Black Sabbath through your parents, or found Ozzy’s solo albums on your own journey, we all share something: a connection to an extraordinary artist who made us feel seen.I talk about my own memories growing up in Birmingham, the way Ozzy's music helped me through tough times, and why he meant so much to so many of us.Please feel free to share your thoughts and stories in the comments. I’ll be compiling selected memories on the Now Spinning Magazine website to honour Ozzy’s legacy.Rest in peace, Ozzy. You were never an ordinary man.Phil Aston | Now Spinning Magazine
