“Ozzy is proof that no matter where you start in life, with passion, grit, and a little bit of madness, you can achieve the extraordinary.”
So speaks Sharon Osbourne, celebrity wife of heavy metal legend Ozzy, who last month made a final appearance with Black Sabbath.
In a fanfare of publicity, the band played Villa Park, in so doing returning, of course, to Aston, the Birmingham district in which they kickstarted their illustrious career way back in the late 1960s.
The Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery exhibition, which is free to enter, showcases Ozzy’s most prestigious international honours, presenting them alongside photographs and videos that chart his journey from working-class kid to global rock legend. This exhibition is a thank-you to the fans and the city of Birmingham, the place where it all began,” continues Sharon. “We’re so proud to bring it home.”
