Ozzy Osbourne – No Rest For The Wicked

I must say that this album is one of the best purchases I made in 1988. I have only played it 4 times since then and it sounds magnificent to this day.

Hello, is there any more information about the badge? Maybe a photo?
There's absolutely nothing to be found online either.
One piece of information says it's a metal pin badge , but how is that supposed to work in a record cover or in the red shinkwrap?
Thanks for information.

An otherwise solid Ozzy album hampered by a wretched mix that makes the whole album sound like a worn out tape. Very little high end and lots of compression. It's like they took the knob configuration for Bark at the Moon and decided to turn up all of the lows and mids. I actually first heard this album on Cassette prior to buying the CD and thought it was a problem with the medium. Unfortunate, as there are some great songs on here.

Poor recorded and poor sounding record. Extra track The Liar very fine though

This has encoded noise reduction (triangle logo) just like the Blizzard of Ozz one. You need an decoder that handles this, hence it sounds muffled on some systems.

My copy is FULL of sound. Nothing “muffled.”

I was lucky enough to pick my copy up for $14.99 because the media has superficial looking scratches.

Believe it or not, it plays very well! The scratches that are visible happen to hit in the correct timing of the music to where you hardly even notice.

Very cool Ozzy album and very cool. Metal record! Totally recommend picking up for any metal enthusiast.

Crazy Babies a lot lower than the rest of album. Otherwise no noise and crackle free. Good press. 👊🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

I have the red vinyl pressing of this counterfeit and over-all it's pretty good. The vinyl itself is nice and clean and plays flawlessly, although the song "Crazy Babies" is mastered at a much lower volume than the rest of the tracks on it so you need to crank the volume a bit on that one.
The inner sleeve is thin cardboard with an ment on each side, one ad is for the album itself and the other is a Japanese ad. It would have been nice to have the original inner sleeve with the credits on it, but you can't have everything!

Some of the songs are lower volumes than others, but overall pretty good.
